How the Tatonka emergency blanket works - how to use it
Made from elastic durable material, one side of which is yellow, the other is white. The cover tightly fits the body, keeping a warm air layer around it. Its dimensions are enough to cover a person of any complexion.
To keep warm, the silver side of the rescue blanket should face inwards. It works like a flexible mirror that reflects the heat generated by the human body.
If you want to achieve the opposite effect, that is, to protect yourself from overheating, a person is covered with a blanket with the golden side inside.
As professional "preppers" note, you can sleep under such a coverlet. Optimally - about 4 hours, be sure to cover your head.
But keep in mind that the body evaporates moisture. It condenses inside and, when there is a lot of it, returns to the body. Therefore, in order not to get tired, you need to periodically turn the cover over.
