An FM radio that runs on batteries, solar or a wind-up crank keeps you informed when mobile networks and the internet are down. Several of these also charge a phone.
A torch is the official alternative to candles. Dynamo and solar torches never need fresh batteries; head torches keep both hands free.
A charged power bank keeps phones working so people can stay in touch and get updates. 20,000mAh models keep a family going for days; solar and wind-up models recharge without mains power.
A first aid kit is on the official checklist. From pocket kits for give-aways to 59-piece kits for the workplace, all branded with your logo.
Blankets and warm layers are on the checklist too. Foil thermal blankets fold to pocket size; fleece blankets roll into their own pouch.
Useful extras for a home emergency box, a car kit or a workplace grab bag.
Emergency kit questions UK buyers ask
What should be in a 3-day emergency kit in the UK?
The UK Government’s Be Ready checklist covers water (3 litres per person per day), non-perishable food, a torch with spare batteries, a battery-powered or wind-up FM radio, a charged power bank, a first aid kit and medication, hygiene products, warm clothing and blankets, cash, copies of important documents, and supplies for babies and pets. Aurora supplies the light, communication and power items, branded with your logo.
Do I need a wind-up radio?
A wind-up or battery-powered FM radio is on the official checklist because it keeps working when mobile networks, the internet and mains power are down. Wind-up and solar radios such as the Beacon and the Dynamo radio and power bank never depend on finding fresh batteries.
Are candles safe in a power cut?
The Be Ready guidance recommends a torch with spare batteries as safer than candles. Wind-up, solar and rechargeable torches and lanterns give light without a naked flame and without needing spare batteries.
What size power bank do I need for an emergency kit?
A 10,000mAh power bank will typically recharge a smartphone two to three times, which covers most people for three days if phones are used sparingly. Keep it charged and check it every few months.
Can we brand emergency kits for our staff or customers?
Yes. Every product on this page can carry your logo, and we can put a radio, torch and power bank together as a branded 3-day power and light kit for employees, tenants, members or customers.
How quickly can you deliver?
Lead times are shown on each product and many items are made in around 5 to 14 working days from artwork approval. Tell us your date when you ask for a quote and we will recommend products that can be ready in time.
What is the minimum order?
Minimum quantities vary by product and are shown on each one. Ask us if you need a small run for a team or thousands for a customer campaign.
Why put a thermal blanket in an emergency kit?
A foil thermal blanket folds to the size of a wallet and reflects body heat back to keep someone warm if the heating is off or they are stuck outdoors. The Be Ready checklist includes blankets and warm clothing, and foil blankets are an easy, low-cost way to cover it.
Which power bank is best for a power cut?
For a power cut lasting days, a 20,000mAh power bank gives the most phone charges. Solar or wind-up power banks can be recharged without mains power, and laptop power banks (65W) also run a laptop for home working.
