They are going to be Christmas presents for my family, so I can only assume that they will be great if they are ever needed.

When I received my package 2 of the zip lock baggies were opened and I was missing 1 of the sleeping bags. I would like to receive my missing bag.
The 'sleeping bags' are roughly equivalent to Hefty Ultra Strong garbage bags with a metallic lining and made large enough to fit an adult person into. That's an unflattering oversimplification, but it gives you a fair idea of what to expect. Nothing glamorous, just a potentially life-saving tool that can help shield you from the wind, keep you dry, and trap body heat, all in a mini sack that's the size of your fist and weighs 4.7 ounces. And, if you open/invert them, they can be used as reflective cover from the sun or for signaling search & rescue crews. As long as you know what to expect and are reasonably gentle with them, they'll fulfill their purpose when a real sleeping bag is unavailable.Note that these are not breathable (you may sweat), do not have contoured tops to cover your head (you may lose some heat), and do not have zippers or other 'amenities.' Expect to pay more for such 'premium' features in a bivvy. As far as the accessories go, they are definitely afterthoughts. Made of cheap plastic, the whistles and compasses both meet the minimum threshold and will work in a pinch, though you're better off planning ahead -- buy dedicated alternatives and give the included ones to your kids to play with.
I haven't had to use them but I do have them in my side by side with other survival gear they seem like they should be alot better then the simple mylar survival blankets mostly cause you actually climb inside them and the wind isn't going to blow them off you.they seem like a great idea small compact with they're own bags wich as I said I have them with my other survival gear in my side by side

So far, so good. Was able to get these on a prime deal which makes it an incredible deal. These are made well and feel very solid. Batteries are great, and the light is very bright on high and very functional on low. No complaints here
OK, people said these are bright and I thought "they don't really know bright." I have a giant spotlight with a battery that interchanges with power tools. It's like an aircraft search light.These little monsters come really close to that brightness! Amazing.The digital display of battery level is super helpful.The recharge plug is a usb-c, very common and up to date.It has a sliding focus that is easy to use and really useful. Wide beam to light up a room, or focused beam to see details at a distance. 3 different power settings if you don't need the super bright.They aren't tiny but they are small enough to fit in your pocket or a backpack.They feel very substantial in the hand. Weighty but not heavy.The power button is not so easy to find...I prefer the power button at the bottom of the flashlight. But how many times is the extra second or two to find the button going to matter.I don't know about longevity yet, but so far I'm super impressed by these.
Why did you pick this product vs others?:The flashlight's performance is excellent, and is definitely the best bang for the buck. The only issue is the battery cannot be changed as far as i can tell which means when it eventually fails... That's it!
these Flashlights have exceeded my expectations in terms of both performance and value
These flashlights are great for your vehicles. Very bright lights and rechargeable. And there are two of them.
