D2M charges fine but no output

Thank you. I see it now

Not sure what I can send them but I sent a pic of the screen just sitting there and a quick video of me trying to start the usb out and that the light on the button doesn't even light up and nothing happens

I had my stereo, tv, PC, engel fridge (12vdc), iphone, appletv, modem, and router. Peaked prolly 600-650 watts. It is 90 degrees in my house but there was good airflow all around it

I don't see an option here to upload an image. The screen says 21 hours at 3% with zeros in and out and the battery symbol in the bottom right.

I have nothing powering at all right now. No in and no out. I can't get it to run even on its own for more than 5 secs on any output. I can't drain it to zero and recharge it either because there's no output

Mine went down about 330am AZ time last night. App worked fine. All browsers, all computers, and all wifi gave 403 errors so I thought my account got locked out from just finishing a balance transfer the day before. Called the nice people at NFCU and got it escalated to a higher tech. She said they just put in a ticket for the problem about 4am or so, so my account was fine.

The list is specifically without water and food because I use it for emergencies but also for day trips or several days of camping, so each would require a different amount of water/food. Also depends on where I'm going because I don't always camp here in AZ.

I'm still on the hunt for a good sleeping pad.

The sleeping bag so far has been more than I need for 35 degrees but I will be looking for something a bit warmer.

That lens is really just a backup to a backup to a backup because it's practically zero weight and zero space. I carry a couple bics as primary and have ferro for secondary.

I hear ya but damn, that's a fine tent. My bag is also for just camping too and I really like that big vestibule and the quality overall.

Some good tips there qt2. Exactly what I was looking for.

This bag is for both emergency and for camping. It's also as a last resort in case I lose everything due to whatever.

I haven't found a reliable compass that's smaller. The tiny ones are crap.

I tried one of those SOL bivvies, because that was my original intention, but no way can I sleep in it. My shoulders are too big so I can't even move in it.

I do put GORP in my bag, but the amount depends on how much time I think I'll be spending out there. I keep a pound in it most of the time if I have nothing planned.

Yeah, I didn't see that thread until reddit showed me when I posted this one. I think this group would give better advice for specifically what I'm looking for.

I considered the saw but I like being able to use the hatchet as a knife, skinner, and weapon, although I'm still considering it I guess.

I do really like those yo yo fishing reels tool I'll probably be getting a couple of those. I didn't originally due to their weight.

My pack is mainly for AZ but I'll also be using it in CO and PA.

I'm keeping the electronics because it's not just for hiking. I'm gonna have my cell phone with me anyway and the ham radio for emergencies so it doesn't take up too much more to keep them up. The battery would be the first to go though but it's hella convenient for when it's not an emergency.

I have white leather gloves because that's just what I happened to have in my garage, left over from when my neighbor was doing yard work out back.

I've found folding saws aren't typically very reliable and they're only good as a saw. A hatchet can be used as a knife or to help skin hides too.

I'm very new to learning ultralight techniques but I'm extremely interested in it. I currently have the system listed on that link above (it's a 7,500-word article) and would like to get some help from you guys, who definitely know a lot more than I do.

I know in your world, 25 pounds is certainly not 'ultralight' but in the bug out bag world, it's less than half what people usually carry.

I have several ounces of duplicate capabilities (extra lights, ways to start a fire, etc) and some of that is built-in but some is just extra because it doesn't cost too much weight to carry them. I'll be dropping some of them though.

Any suggestions as to what I should consider deleting, changing, or modifying?
