About Survival Gear
TBO-TECH Survival Gear is committed to bringing you quality survival
gear you can use in a real world emergency. Our emergency kits have
been put together with you and your family, co-workers, or fellow
students in mind. They will sustain you through a 3 day ordeal by
providing you with food and water and other necessary equipment
you will need in order to survive.
I started TBO-TECH in April of 2000 offering self defense and personal
protection products. Since then, our business has grown into one
of the largest online websites for that industry. Our success stems
from our customer service orientation along with high quality products
that people can depend on.
However, I have always had an interest in survival gear and the
outdoors. Being a former soldier, camper, hunter, and a general
outdoor enthusiast, survival gear seemed the next logical step I
wanted to take with our company.
When I first thought of starting a website for survival gear, I
did a lot of research on the subject regarding which items to offer.
It seemed there were several websites that already offered survival
gear and survival kits but they all had different ideas of what
should go into a survival kit.
I decided I would create my own kits containing the items I
would want to have in a survival kit and the gear I would use if
I were in a real world emergency or survival situation. I didn't
want to put together a generic survival kit that may or may not
help someone survive.
What I then did was seek out the most expert authorities on survival
and see which specific products were the most highly recommended.
Practical, premium, survival kits and gear that I would be confident
in using to keep me and my family alive in a real world emergency
or survival situation. When it comes down to family, only the best
will do.
World reknowned survival expert, Doug Ritter, founder of Equipped
to Survive, had come up with a pocket sized essential survival kit
that could be carried with you at all times. Based on his expert
knowledge, he chose the items he would have in an essentials kit
and made sure that the quality of the items would hold up to practical,
out in the woods, rugged use. The quality of the individual survival
items impressed me so much that I had to offer this product and
to also offer the individual items to help people create their own
QUALITY kits as well.
From there I sought out other suppliers of the highest quality
gear there is and picked and chose the items I thought were best
suited to offer on this website. My main criteria was that all items
we offered had to be of the best available. I was not going to offer
sloppily created survival kits and gear that couldn't be of significant
value to our customers. You don't want cheaply made gear that would
fail you at critical times when you needed them the most.
The result is our premium survival
kits that contain quality gear you will be able to count
on in critical circumstances. Although cost is a bit higher than
the economy kits, I feel you are much better served with the products
in our survival kits than those of many others. And I'm completely
confident that the choice of contents contained in our premium kits
is much better thought out than the majority of emergency kits you
will find anywhere.
For those of you looking to supplement your own survival kit or
kits purchased here or elsewhere, the quality products we put in
our survival packs are available for you to purchase separately
or as an add-on. I will continue to add products and gear as I come
across them and can source them for you.
I use the gear carried on this website in the woods, hunting, and
camping with the kids. If it doesn't work
for me, I'm not going to offer it to you. You can be sure that the
products offered on this website are of the highest quality and
are able to be used in real world environments.
