Cyclone Emergency Kit: The essentials for tackling severe weather
When a cyclone approaches, being well-prepared becomes a priority. Between power cuts, blocked roads, and extreme weather conditions, having the right equipment can truly make a difference. Here are the essentials to have in your home to guarantee comfort, security, and independence during and after a cyclone.
Power generators: your energy source in a crisis
Electricity cuts are frequent during cyclones, and sometimes last a long time. A reliable generator then becomes your best ally. The DG6000SE Diesel Silent Generator (4.5–5.3 kVA) offers high power while remaining silent, ideal for keeping your essential appliances running: refrigerator, lighting, fans, or communication equipment. The KCG20Ei-DF Petrol/Gas Generator Inverter 2.3 kVA, more compact and economical, is perfect for powering your sensitive devices like phones, laptops, or modems. Together, these options guarantee you autonomy and peace of mind for the entire duration of the storm.
Rechargeable torches: essential lighting
In the event of a power failure, torches become essential for moving around safely. The range of USB rechargeable torches—available in 10W, 30W, and up to 2000 lumens—offers power, battery life, and ease of use. Compact and robust, they are perfect for emergencies: checking outside, moving around the house when it's plunged into darkness, or dealing with an unexpected situation. Their USB charging makes them convenient and always ready to use, even when the electricity is off.
Head torches: keep your hands free in all circumstances
Head torches are particularly useful during a cyclone because they allow you to keep your hands free while you attend to urgent tasks. Whether it's the 10W model (300–1000 lumens) or the 1800-lumen rechargeable version, they provide powerful and precise lighting. They are ideal for checking cables, securing openings, inspecting the roof after the storm, or simply moving around at night while maintaining complete freedom of movement.
Portable lanterns: easily light up an entire room
The 150-Lumen portable lantern is perfect for lighting up an entire room during a power cut. Stable, practical, and economical, it emits a soft but sufficient light for cooking, reading, keeping the children occupied, or maintaining a comfortable living space. A must-have for all families during severe weather.
Be ready, stay safe
Preparing before a cyclone arrives is about ensuring the safety and comfort of the whole family. With a reliable generator, powerful torches, practical head torches, and a portable lantern, you have all the essentials to face the unexpected.
Good preparation does not eliminate risks, but it gives you the means to manage them calmly.
Protect your home. Anticipate. Equip yourself smartly.
