Tooler2 (Mar 6, 2022)
When I first saw one the idea to begin with seemed preposterous to me, but after consideration, I bought one to try.
I saw there were some areas they might be helpful.
I went back and bought 3 as gifts for my sons that go camping/ fishing/ kayaking/canoeing (14$+ each)
I would definitely take one walking on the beach at night with kids.
The light can be detached if needed to be used separately. The light is mid level brightness wide beam.
The bucket is a silicone fold down with stiff poly handle, top ring and bottom that takes up little room once collapsed
(very similar to the plain collapsible ones at W-mart.)
They hold a bit over a gallon (carry-wise, maybe a few pints over a gallon.)
After 4 years they have actually had a bit of use but we aren't typically hard on equipment.
My middle son carries his in his XJ all the time. Has used it laying on side for extra light and laying tools in working underneath.
I don't know I would want any liquids in it beside water.
Useful at night for whatever you may need water for like washup, etc. and not having to hold a light.
Makes a decent low light level/no heat lantern.
'Just remember, your mileage may vary'
I posted this before the video would load.
Some points are self evident I see.
