I was recently asked what’s one tool on my Get Home Bag and Bug Out Bag most people would never think of that they should add. The Silcock water key or commonly called a 4-way water key is a great tool to have in your kits. In the event your vehicle overheats and you find the stores or gas station closed, the water access that you pay for isn't working or you're on foot trying to make it home and don't have enough water to keep you hydrated especially in hot months. Many buildings, parks and transportation facilities have outside water access most people don't notice and usually a valve that requires a square key. The four-way silcock key makes it easier to access water due to potential varience in sizes. Here I had a few managed to acquire four liters of water from the side of a Shoping Center. I used this year's ago when my car overheated and pulled into a closed gas station and the water/air machine was down. Saw the spigot had a square on it instead of a handle wand was able to fill the radiator and go after patching the hose. I learned this technique from a homeless vet many years ago that I befriended. He taught me many things most would never imagine regarding urban survival. You can pick it up at any hardware store or online. #emergency #emergencypreparedness #shtf #shtfgear #bugoutbag #bob #ghb #gethomebag #edc #water #waterislife #hydrateordie #bushcraftandprepping #urban #urbanjungle #urbansurvival #homeless #urbanwarfare #survive #survival #prepper #preparedness #survivalist https://www.instagram.com/p/CaVth9XPVPl/?utm_medium=tumblr
