I intended to use these "canned" PSKs for emergency only, not as EDC ;
just a can you leave in the trunk of the car or at the bottom of a rucksack ; and this for not-bothered-to-be-prepared friends/relatives ; just so they would have a PSK anyway. Because I care, even if they don't !
Once used, and back to a safe place, the can itself would be thrown away and replaced.
And the pieces and bits (*) stored inside will be individualy wraped ; esbit in particularly will be stored in small sealed plastic bags.
(*) esbit, 2 fire starters, tinder, water purification pills, tea bags, coffe doses, sugar, 3 one-liter ziploc bags (water containers + alternate containers for these same bits and pieces ..), whistle, small blade, a.s.o. .... (well ... as much as I will be able to stuff inside <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)
+ wraped around the tin : space blanket, big garbage plastic bag, paracord ;
Do you still think it's not a good idea ???
In which case, I could check if there is any reusable steel container (with lid) about the same size ...
