EVERLIT Emergency Trauma Kit, CAT GEN-7 Tourniquet 36" Splint, Military Combat Tactical IFAK for Critical Wounds First Aid, Gun Shots, Severe Bleeding Control (Camouflage)

Hmmm. When faced with darkness—chaos of the wild or the calamity of battle—one must be prepared. The Everlit Emergency Trauma Kit, crafted by U.S. military veterans, is a tool worthy of a Jedi or any brave soul navigating the unknown. Size and Organization, powerful they are Compact, it may be, yet vast is its usefulness. Everything in its place, quickly accessible in the heart of urgency. No fumbling in the dark, young Padawan. Ease of Use, for Padawan or Master alike Simple and intuitive, the kit is. No need for years of Jedi training to apply a tourniquet or dressing. In moments of dire need, this is most important. Fit and Kit Content, complete it is Combat tourniquet, tactical dressing, compressed gauze—these tools are your allies. For hemorrhage, respiratory care, hypothermia, and bone fractures—prepared you will be. The 36-inch splint roll... ah, yes. Stabilizes as if held by the Force itself. Value for Money, not to be underestimated A small price, it is, for such power. Peace of mind, this kit provides. In emergencies, no price too high for readiness. Final Thought Whether a medic in the field or a wanderer of the stars, this trauma kit you must carry. The Force is strong with it. Hmmm.

Awesome and so important to have! I highly recommend this kit because of contents and price! Well worth the mo ey!

I am nowhere close to being the pinnacle of medical knowledge, but as an EMT who works in the field of emergency preparedness and response, I am very impressed with this trauma kit. A key assumption before continuing with this review; I have not yet performed a thorough inspection of the CAT Gen-7 tourniquet, though upon a cursory review, it does appear to be legitimate and not a copy-CAT (forgive my pun). The kit is constructed very well and with good stitching. The exterior strap provides a decent amount of compression to keep the contents of the kit compact and in place. Comparing this kit with many others out on the market, I find that this kit makes some of the most financial sense, given the quality of the items included. The only things I would add to this kit are occlusive chest seals and cling/roll gauze; the latter being optional, but beneficial in extending the number of injuries or patients that can be treated by one kit by potentially being paired with the hemostatic z-fold gauze for one injury site, and using the Israeli bandage on another. I believe the next evolution of this kit does come with some of those additional items, but it also adds additional band-aids and smaller items that I don't think are necessary for this type of kit. Kit strengths: Well packed; quality (reliable) equipment; good as an IFAK or to be stored in a bleed kit/large AED case, or to be kept on a jobsite. Kit weaknesses: Somewhat large/bulky, make sure it will fit in your intended storage space. The red velcro first-aid patch has small red fibers coming off of it, a very very mild irritation. Final Thoughts: There is additional value to be found in the origin of this kit. Being an American company with an official CAT Gen-7 tourniquet is important, especially if this kit is to be used for anything other than personal use. Are other kits likely to get the job done? Probably. But when it comes to a tourniquet, is "probably" good enough? In Ukraine, many copy-CATS are being discovered. Sadly, they are discovered when the cheaper windlass fails during application in a high-stress environment. Also, it may be worth considering other means of wound disinfection beyond the included alcohol prep pads. Studies have shown that use of hydrogen peroxide or rubbing alcohol can harm tissue and delay healing. In emergency situations, it should still do the job, just bear this in mind.

A well stocked quality first aid emergency kit that fits neatly under the front seat of my truck. I did not have a first aid kit in my truck and realized how important it was to have one.

Very well made, VERY well equipped, and very durable. I love the emergency strip, the molle ability everything about it. The only thing I would add was I bought "bleedstop" and more compression gauze. Other than adding those 2 things this pack is perfect 100%.

Don’t be fooled by lesser products. This comes with a real CAT Tourniquet by North American Rescue (I’ve been sold counterfeit CATs via Amazon in the past). This product is a great addition to any EDC trauma kit, or vehicle first aid. Nothing fancy, just high quality, simplified essentials. The bag is very durable, however it is a little complicated to open quickly. Thus, I recommend practicing opening the bag a few times to get use to the process. Comes with some cool Velcro patches. Overall very satisfied.

Great basic kit. Be sure to set it up! Take the tourniquet out of the plastic, open the first bag on the Israeli bandage( it’s also wrapped inside) organize the stuff in a way/order that it will be used (I removed the band aids & put into my regular IFAK because I won’t be using those in a trauma situation). Practice using the tourniquet if you don’t know how to use it. Will be buying more of these to have around

Has everything you need, compact so be careful when taking the items out for inspection. It can be tough to put back together. Fits well in a Molle system on a back pack or a chest rig.
