📢 Quick update on the Guard Dawg Solutions Etsy shop…3 of the 7 preparedness pillars are now available as standalone Notion planners.

After launching the full 7-pillar Emergency Preparedness Planner, several customers told me they'd only use 1 or 2 of the sections, so I've been building each pillar out as its own planner w/ more depth than the original. Each one is $7.99 and comes w/ a step-by-step user manual and printable paper backup sheets for when the power or internet is down:

• Emergency Communications – family comms plan using the PACE method, GMRS & HAM licensing, an FCC-checked frequency reference and a 3-level drill program
• Emergency Backup Power – load calculator for your critical devices, generator vs power station vs solar sizing, fuel math and carbon monoxide safety
• Emergency Food & Water – calorie and water calculator for every person and pet, an EPA bleach dose table, a 14-week pantry build plan and home freeze-drying

Each planner is also available as a Planner + App bundle for $10.99. The Field Kit app runs on your phone, tablet or computer and keeps working w/ no internet, so your numbers, contacts and plans are still in hand when the grid is down.

If you need 3 or more pillars, the complete 7-pillar planner is still the better value. The next 4 pillars are in work: Personal Protection & Security, Emergency Medical & First Aid, Evacuation & Bug-Out and Financial Preparedness.

Thanks again for the support...Be Prepared, Be Protected!

The power goes out. So does your Wi-Fi. Now what?

Most families find out mid-outage that they don't know what their generator can run, how long the food in the fridge is safe or how many days their fuel will last. By then the internet is down and there's nothing to look it up on.

So I built the Backup Power Field Kit. It's an offline app that installs on your phone, tablet or computer and keeps working with no signal.

⚡ Load calculator: 62 device presets. See your daily watt-hours, biggest surge and the size of power station or generator you actually need.
⏱️ Outage clock: food safety timers for the fridge (4 hrs), full freezer (48 hrs) and half-full freezer (24 hrs).
⛽ Fuel math: how many days your fuel will last at your run times.
☠️ Safety cards: carbon monoxide (CO), the 20 ft generator rule, no backfeeding and the garage door manual release.
📇 Contacts: your utility, electrician and neighbors, all offline.

$5.99. One key covers 3 devices. No account, no tracking, no ads.

New in Guard Dawg's Etsy shop: the EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS PLANNER.

A couple of customers told me they'd only use one or two pillars of our full 7-pillar Emergency Preparedness Planner, so I broke Communications out on its own and built it deeper. It's a Notion template w/ 6 planner pages and 9 linked databases that walk your household through building a real comms plan and keep your radios, licenses, repeaters & channels organized in one place.

What's inside: activation triggers, rally points, school & workplace plans, FRS/GMRS/MURS/CB/HAM/satellite/Meshtastic compared side by side, GMRS and HAM licensing steps, a frequency reference checked against current FCC rules, a repeater directory w/ offsets and PL tones (plus a plain-English guide to programming them), a family net control script and a 3-level drill program. It also comes w/ 7 printable sheets, because if the power or internet is down, so is Notion.

$7.99, instant download, free Notion account required.
