【Preparation for Heavy Snow】What if there's a power outage? Practical gear for outdoor and emergency situations, four types.

With the arrival of the strongest cold wave, the author was reviewing disaster preparedness goods in case of "what if." If it's disaster preparedness gear that can be used for daily life or outdoor activities, the opportunities for use might increase... So, here’s a recommendation for DOD gear that can be used for both play and during emergencies.

Shutting out the cold ground even in sub-zero temperatures! Insulated air mat "Shadandan"

The most brutal aspect of shelters in winter is the intense cold that seeps from the floor. The "Shadandan" is an air mat boasting high insulation performance (R-value 6.2) suitable for sub-zero environments. It features a 7-layer structure that includes an aluminum sheet inside, which not only blocks cold air but also reflects body heat to retain warmth.

Easy to carry, the included carry bag also serves as a pump, allowing it to be inflated anywhere, even during a power outage.

Transforming the shelter into an exquisite bedroom! 10cm thick air mat "Sotone no Kiwami Air L"

It has a size comparable to a double bed, allowing families to rest together.

Despite this thickness, it packs remarkably compact for storage thanks to DOD's technological prowess. This too features a carry bag that becomes a pump, ensuring a reliable private sleeping space in any situation.
