Unlike most places we don’t get any comission from the things we suggest, so go ahead and browse. Things we recently liked:

Gloves

Ringers Heavy Duty Gloves

Why we like it: Heavy fire gloves don’t come in handy with car rescues, and this particular pair is rugged, tough and built to last, with impact-absorbing gel for more comfort and heavy duty stitching. And with a blow-out price of $23.99, you really can’t beat it without compromising quality or reliability.

Smith & Wesson EMT Watch

Why we like it: Asides from being a cool EMS blue with the insignia in the middle, the Smith & Wesson name has been known for strong, reliable and precise devices. At $39.99, it’s a perfect gift for that emergency reponder you have in mind. (They’ll need it for pulse and respirations.) Buy it today at KoGoods or at select stores on eBay.

Signalâ„¢ Mini Phantom Max LED Dash Light

Why we like it: At $99.99, this mother of a light bar in LED is bound to get the attention of the most inattentive drivers out there, and with 25% more intensity than previous editions, it’s asking to be bought. Available in PA-state safe blue.

Wack Pack

WACK-PACK “Deluxe”: with Garrity LED Life Light.

Why we like it: You really can’t beat the price, and with what you get, you really won’t mind it if that stray flame destroys your light, because by then you’ll have had to use it plenty of times. $16.99 at the Fire Store.
