Just finishing my emergency gear check, a process I endeavor to complete every three months. I had left one stash to the last, because everything was good just three months ago...

Surprise! There was superficial rust on my Ltool accessories. The Eneloops batteries in thee headlamp were good, but two of the backup lithiums were deficient. maybe because they weere dated 2012??

I also have a zippered pouch that is corroded shut - still working on that. Moisture is getting into the stash somehow, and I will have to fix that.

Other than that, everything is dandy and my CERT bag is ready to go.

Just passing this along, so that you may be inspired to conduct regular checks of this stuff.....
