The RECCO system is a search-and-rescue technology designed to help professionals locate people buried in avalanches or lost in the outdoors. Today, it is integrated into millions of pieces of ski and outdoor equipment worldwide.
One of the most indispensable items for spring tent camping is a rain fly. Your tent probably comes with one, but when that thing gets absolutely drenched, the water will soak through and drip from the ceiling. So, install this tarp above your tent and at an angle, so the rain rolls right off it.
When cell towers are damaged or overloaded, phones work harder to stay connected, using up more power. Weak signals, frequent reconnecting, and increased activity from the phone's modem are among the main reasons the battery does not last as long in these situations.
It's got a 20,000-mAh battery -- yes, twenty thousand milliamp hours -- with an included USB-C port for charging other devices. It also powers a large audio speaker and LED lamp on the back, the latter of which can get so bright that a pop-up dialog warns you not to look directly at it to avoid eye damage.
The all-new 2026 Escape, designed after the original camper, is no less, in fact, the petite solution, the Escape Pod. Which reimagines the existing model, is "built for those who want to disappear off-grid without giving up comfort."
Now, in a twist to the age-old story that even the writing room of "Grey's Anatomy" couldn't have come up with, a man in France was rushed to the operating room after staffers at the Rangueil Hospital in Toulouse found out he had shoved a 37mm brass-and-copper "collectible shell" that was used by the Imperial German Army during World War 1 up his rectum.
If you are choking and are alone, try to get yourself into a high-traffic area, such as a hallway in a building or outside your house. If you pass out, you're way more likely to be found as opposed to being in a room in a building or your house. Call 911 even though you can't speak. Someone will be sent to your location by dispatch.
After my phone was stolen abroad, I realized that staying safe while traveling isn't just about carrying the right items-it's about carrying them in a way that doesn't draw attention. Bulky backpacks, neon accents, and flashy anti-theft gear scream "tourist". Now, I rely on discreet safety tools that blend seamlessly into my outfits: a scarf with a hidden pocket, a low-profile money belt tucked under clothes, and a sleek crossbody bag that looks stylish rather than like a security tool.
To capture the biological impact of this extreme environment, I used a comprehensive suite of sensors and biomarker analyses. I wore a wireless electroencephalograph (EEG) system to monitor brain activity, sleep stages and neural signatures of stress and adaptation; the Oura Ring to continuously track sleep patterns, heart-rate variability and circadian-rhythm shifts; and the glucose monitor to follow metabolic responses in real time.
However, each individual watch has its own unique selling point - and for the Flint (as its name rightfully suggests), it's the waterproof flint-rod that's integrated into the watch's body. Unscrew it when you want to start a fire, scrape on the rod using a pocket knife, and sparks immediately shoot off, igniting any form of tinder, creating a tiny fire that can then be harnessed to light a campfire, an old-fashioned torch, or an emergency signal in a time of distress.
Imagine being a ski patrol responder racing toward an injured skier on a freezing mountain. Your hands are gripping poles, your attention is split between the terrain and the emergency ahead, and your radio crackles with critical information. Now imagine if you could access maps, communicate with your team, and log vital data without ever touching a device. That's exactly what the Argus AR Helmet promises to deliver.
Despite knowing I was headed to Spain for an extended period for well over a year, some of my prep ended up being a bit last-minute. I last-minute decided to take the , and I last-minute decided to attach an AirTag to it using an Elevation Lab Secure AirTag Wire Cable holder . I figured that since the strap was cut-resistant, it would work.
If you've ever fidgeted with a pen during a long meeting or phone call, you know the appeal of a good click. But this takes it to another level. The bolt-action deployment is smooth, satisfying, and way more robust than a standard clicker. It's the kind of tactile experience that makes you actually want to use a physical pen in our increasingly digital world.
Your phone's flashlight works fine until you're elbow-deep in a car engine bay or fumbling with tent poles in the dark. Then you realize the limitation: you need both hands free, you need the light exactly where you're working, and you need it to stay there without propping your $1,200 device against something greasy or precarious. The NanoB10 from Gadget On lives in that gap between "good enough" and "actually useful."
