The curved path brought me back to the low-price store. Walking along the rows, my eyes caught a black, elongated zippered bag. Which was closed with a screed. First thought, what's inside? He did not rip off the impromptu lock. And my conscience would not allow it.
The price tag under this kit said it was a motorist's kit, and it probably had a fire extinguisher in it. Just what I need. I turned to the "consultant" to show the content of the goods, but he muttered something under his breath and asked to wait. Rushing to the other end of the hall. Time is running out for me, so I did not wait and bought a "pig in a poke". And what is inside, I learned by unpacking the "black box" at home.
I open
Well, here I am already at home, I cut off the screed and see what we have there.
The first an emergency stop sign falls out of the special bag, opening the transformer it was possible to assess the quality. And I'll tell you, it's not badly assembled. To designate himself in an emergency, especially at night, he will definitely help out. But the main thing is that this sign is not useful when!
Second a first aid kit came from the bag. Having opened it, it was possible to count bandages and a special mouth-to-mouth breathing device, as well as tourniquets to stop bleeding. Unfortunately, and perhaps fortunately, there was nothing else in it, not even scissors for cutting off a bandage or cutting clothes on the victim.
The third a towing cable followed from the "box". For the evacuation of an emergency vehicle using a flexible coupling. The impression was that the cable itself was flimsy, thin. The declared three and a half tons of the towed car, it can withstand, but with jerks it will surely burst.
Fourth a fire extinguisher rolled out. That is what I need. The most massive and heaviest thing. There are no complaints about the quality. The refueling date is fresh, September 2019, as I understand it. He will go to replace the old brother. The only thing that confused me about it was the plastic threaded part. Where the pressure gauge is screwed in and where the locking mechanism for the pressure vessel is installed. Previously, they were made of bronze, and now they are made of polymer. I can't say good or bad. You just have to be careful not to drop the can of fire-fighting powder. Otherwise, God forbid, the head curls up.
The price of this complete set is 863 rubles. If you collect it separately, it will surely be more expensive.
The only thing I lacked in the set was a special vest made of bright green or orange material. To mark yourself on the road in emergency situations.
What do you think, took a good thing for such a price?
