    Default Electronic devices you would carry in SHTF.

    I found a foldable solar panel device on Cheaper than dirt. Now I know some here dont like cheaper than dirt, but this solar panel got my attention. So in a SHTF, what electronic devices would you bring. Remember, some things will be down at this time. Just throwing this out there.

    I would probably bring a battery charger so i can recharge flashlight, short range radio batteries.

    I like my GPS, but if SHTF, there is a chance satellites won't be working depending on the severity.

    A phone is the same issue.

    I would definitely want my laptop so I could log in here and see how you guys are doin!

    I can't really think of anything I would truly need to survive.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    Hilarious. G3 or G4 network?

    I'll ditch all that crap and use a compass and a map.
