30 in 1 Mini Pocket Survival Tool review
CLICKBAIT It’s nowhere near as good as the French MRE and you know it UNSUBSCRIBED
I went here today again and saw a monk walking down from there I even have the video
Would love to see that!
@thewanderer360 I have a video going up on channel soon I'm going to go back for the next 7 days to see if I can see him again
Looks like alot of white powder residue on that scale 😂
Flour of course 😏
Did you know that those packages have a peelable seal in the lower left corner of the package, where it can be opened easily without tools. 😁
Did not spot that! I don’t have a good track record with tear notches so just go knife first!
Next time you can then try to open it from there. I'm pretty sure you'll buy several more Norwegian packs. In my opinion, they are one of the best MER products on the market.
The fire should be blue, and no smoke, you have to clean spring inside pipe and add more air pressure. The fire will stabilized after 20 seconds..
You should have opened that lever on the left side, to the up position. That's why yours is burning with a yellow flame. Once it burns with a blue flame, you can turn it back. It's there for a reason.
The way I would heat it up is to place top side down over the flame and then let it warm up before placing it bottom on the flame and then remove the lid.
Bit empty for 12 hours. It relies on it's main.
and lots of suger!
Nice 👍 😊
I likethe look of these MREs but often not the menu tastes. Great video.
When lighting up a cold stove, lever should be faced up, it will only permit vapors to pass through generator so stove will burn cleaner and heat up quicker. Typically a new or clean generator will only require 10 to 20 seconds to reach proper vaporizing temperatures (blue flames) which at that point the lever can be turned down to allow liquid only fuel into the generator. A yellow flame is an indicator that stove is not hot enough and if you continue to run stove in that fashion, it will cause carbon buildup sooner internally. The generator is designed to be disassembled and cleaned many times so there is no need to fear that it's ruined when fouled with carbon.
The packaging looks like it contains poison.
It was really good!
cant airdrop these into a muslim country
Foolish, all food becomes halal if absolutely necessary even pork
It's impossible for a multinational organizations as big as the UN to commit small error like sending non halal aid to a muslim majority country
Leave it to the UN to serve pork in an MRE. Probably the most forbidden meat on the planet. But, great review! Xylitol gum?
Mine won't lite
How old is the petrol?
Nice! Let's get this out onto a tray! Nice!
Thanks for the video! Keep uploading MRE videos plss!!!!
Hopefully another one this week!
Have 3 sets of the same table ware in titanium
They are really good! I did a quick review of them a while back. th-cam.com/video/5-eAPoMpf00/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching
I did a review on menu 10
Thank you for the video, @thewanderer360! at 1:47 - For anyone curious about the details of how the lighting lever works: The reason you turn the lighting lever up when lighting the stove is to open a vent in the Fuel-Air tube located in the upper portion of the fuel tank where fuel vapor naturally exists by evaporation within the tank. Opening the vent allows this fuel vapor to travel from the fuel tank, through the top part of the Fuel-Air tube, through the cold generator & manifold, and out the burner where the fuel vapor is ignited and burns more cleanly (i.e. lots of blue flame & minimal yellow/orange flame) because of a more suitable air to fuel mixture. After burning the vapors for a little while, the generator becomes hot enough to vaporize liquid fuel. Turning the lighting lever down closes the top vent and opens up the end to allow liquid fuel to travel through the Fuel-Air tube, vaporize as it passes through the hot generator, and burns as fuel vapor in the burners. Conversely, with the lighting lever turned down when lighting, liquid fuel travels through the Fuel Air tube, through a cold generator, slightly pools inside the manifold, and evaporates in the manifold & burner. This generates a large amount of fuel vapors, which burns with an unsuitably low air to fuel mixture, which is identifiable with a yellow to orange flame and sooty smoke... "A little bit smokey when it starts." In this video, you can see flames burning from the manifold behind the burner - where flames are not supposed to be. The yellow/orange flame does not burn as hot as the blue flame, which means it takes longer to heat the generator. In this video, the flames were still yellow/orange almost 2.5 minutes after lighting. You should expect it to take about 1 minute or less. Soot is not healthy to breathe in and it dirties the stove quickly. Take a look at the stove in this video to see the right burner, generator, manifold (right side), and areas of the grate, case & windscreen are covered with black soot.
That's why his flame is so yellow to begin with. I just bought one off Facebook and I love it.
🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ I know the ones I have are probably more than3 years old I know I got them about2 years ago or so
Thanks for the review I crumble up the biscuits and add them to the fruit (In this case apricot) and , for me, it turns it into a delicious fruit cobbler or crumble and adds another texture .... but each to their own
Sounds great! Will try that!
Snobbish narration, plus put the heating pack on an angle.
If you have problems with crystallized drinks, first put a small amount of hot water in the container, then the crystals in there, stir and when the crystals or block has melted into syrup, add cold water.
Thank you will try this next time!
First time I've seen a utensil like that one. Rather interesting, thanks for sharing.
Indeed that chocolate bar has melted. For things like the strawberry drink I find it helps to think about the flavor it supposedly is while consuming it.
also known in US as a cathole tool
what a joke. might as well use a spoon
I have one for years but just afraid of using gas in it
Add some gas and it will light right up! Great stoves!
''Quinoa'' is pronounced ''keenoir''
Agreed had total brain failure when recording!
Do the French still carry a mess kit or do they have to find containers and utensils in the field to eat their MREs?
They do carry a mess kit I believe
Yep, they even have a corkskrew
I also have those French packages on the shelf, all menus 1-14. I have to make a video about one of them at some point. Those fruit bars are way too sweet for my taste. BTW, on those cookies, in the plastic, in small letters, is what kind of cookies they are.
The bars are definitely the lowest quality things in these MREs. I suspect it's price issue. They'd rather have a decent main meal even if it means going cheap on the bars.
The stove provided in the ration is used in boot camp but in general we use a little camping gas stove, it's much more efficient. We also have sometimes a can of cheese (blue cheese, goat cheese, etc.) which is delicious. Every french ration is edible cold or hot if we obviously dont have the possibility to heat them in combat situations. This shrimp and chicken menu is one of the worst. In the French army, if you have de lasagna menu or pasta with bolognese it's your lucky day!
Will look out for those ones! have just done a review on the Pork cheek meal, I loved it!
Hi , my two teenage boys and I regularly use all sorts of different military rations when we go hiking ... the French rations are always popular, because generally everything tastes great...as for the biscuits, they just don't keep very well and go rancid very quickly, but if you have relatively fresh ration you will find the biscuits also tasting very good. Thanks for the review...
They are the best I have found to date. Have just done another review and this time the biscuits were great!
first time see that kind of match box.
Don't eat the biscuits if they taste bad! Even the slightest painty smell or taste. I did and I was really ill. Usually are pretty good 👍 Steve 🎯
Always good advice
you should take that chocolate and melt it and put it over your hazel nutts.
Brilliant idea!
@thewanderer360 I did that with mine and it was OUTSTANDING
Everything looked delicious I have a couple of these that I'm sure are probably past the date but I'm still going to do a review this was an enjoyable review thank you for reviewing this menu
Interesting
There are generally two reasons the FRH does not work for people. One is that it is old enough that there has been moisture intrusion of some sort and the chemical reaction has already very slowly occurred. The second. and most common reason, is that people poor in the water to the fill line and stop there. One must fold the top to the side away from the heating elements and rotate the FRH flat so the heater is on the bottom and the water can saturate all of the elements. Without doing this the only way for the higher elements to get the water needed for the reaction is from steam from the one element getting water at the bottom. When one then decides that it isn't working and removes the retort pouch, quite often the FRH is then accidentally manipulated to soak all the elements and, voila, it starts to work. It can also help to add a bit of salt to the water to encourage the reaction.
I think it was a combination of both. Usually the heater packet is flat and filled with powder. This one was rock hard and all clumped up at one end!
Great video mate.
Glad you enjoyed it have another french review planned!
It might be interesting to know how many MREs are made and by what countries.
No idea probably many hundreds! I know the UK have 38 different types for starters!
That esbit stove is intended for heating water in a canteen cup when you are out on the field.
Yep it’s a really clever idea!
Been there, done that.
It's beyond me why they can't improve the crackers. I understand the longevity aspect of it, but a better cracker cracker in modern packaging would make for a happier soldier
👍
These Lithuanian MREs seem to be always liked by the MRE review/consumer community. I cannot wait to save up some dough and purchase a few menus. Very good and in detail review, wanderer. One of these rations on a long ruck march is a very good choice indeed. I usually don't take coffee or tea during a ruck march, but the rest seems to make a lot of sense. Awesome review. Keep them coming, wanderer. We will get you up there with the greats in no time. Cheers.
Glad you enjoyed have a few more reviews lined up in the next few weeks!
Any reason why mine won't pump when I cover small hole with thumb?
The pump needs to be unscrewed a few turns anti clockwise to be able to pump.
@@thewanderer360 thank you. I searched online and that's what people were saying. Hopefully that's the cause. Took it to my storage so I have to test when I go back.
Could also be the rubber or leather pump cup is worn or dried out
The long pin that goes into the pump, screws into something. That " something" was clogged up on mine. I used carburetor cleaner. Let it sit for a few minutes. With the pin screwed into it just enough to hold the pin upright. Then I pumped it up dnd it began to move fluid thru.
I’d probably have those with some coffee ☕️ or tea 🫖 they look like bran cereal
They work well dunked in tea!
What in the HELL is wrong with your water!!!????? Why does it look yellow before you ad anything?😮
See what you mean! no idea how what was going on there!
I think the yellow was just a well loved coffee mug lol.Nice review.
Can you do a video on cleaning it?
