The title of this thread does not match the title of linked article. The article is titled "Home Disaster Preparedness Kits" and mainly talks about these types of kits, and which we all know (at least I speak for myself), that a home preparedness kit does not equate a survival kit - or vice versa.

To me each kit, whether it be a home kit, a wilderness survival kit or a BOB kit, that although may share a few common base items such as flashlight, batteries, some first supplies etc, are all different kits for different purposes and scenarios. For example, there is not much in my home kit that I would want to drag through the bush with me as part of my survival kit.

For me, I maintain 3 separate kits as above and believe that this is best option and thinking for my needs, my expected scenarios, my area, etc.
