I have used mylar "space" blankets for the past 30 years for near innumerable projects. Want to make a solar oven? here's a tool to allow that. Increase the rating on your sleeping bag by 20 degrees (put the mylar INSIDE the bag), I've made emergency ponchos from them while backpacking. Ground cloths, signal devices, sun awnings (in this mode they help provide cooling), insulation for coolers, animal shelters, a lining for an incubator.

They don't have to wait around in your car or "read bag" to find uses! However, I carry them in each vehicle, I have one in each of my various (depending on purpose) "ready bags", in emergency kits made for the kids and in all the first aid kits in the house, vehicles, the ranch and other such haunts.

This little piece of plastic may well be one of the premier tools of all time.

I bought these to cover the windows on an enclosed south facing porch during the summer. I cut them to size and applied with packing tape around the frames. They definitely lower the temp in that room, although it still gets very warm in there at least now it's tolerable. They do block a bit of the sunlight, I'd say around 25% lower light in the room but it's worth it. These are strong and won't tear until you cut them, then they tear very easily once even a tiny cut is started. I'll also be stashing some of these in the car and my backpack. They're extremely compact and lightweight and economical. Each comes in its own little ziploc bag and you could easily fit two or three of them in the back pocket of your jeans.

We purchased these blankets to keep in the car for emergencies. Thankfully we haven't had to use them. We also used them to line our rescued black lab's dog house for added warmth in our N.E. PA. home. We then used it to make a shelter for some free range kitty's that took up residence on our porch. We lined a box with the blankets. The kitty's are nice and toastie. This is a great product at a great price !!!!
