In the 1.5.4 update, the second lower level of Bunker A has been released. Transport Components (For ATV or Chopper) Minigun (always will be there for first run) Tactical Armor Set (Tactical Cap, Tactical Body Armor, Tactical Trousers, Tactical Boots) Second Locker(**Caution: Has Laser Alarm before door): Loot is more random on subsequent visits. Note: As of 1.5.4 you no longer need to repair the terminal guarding the minigun, and the fence is no longer electrified. Once you get past this you will need to walk around the corner and click on the Valve, this will turn the steam off in the next corridor, as this deals damage if not done.Īs of 1.5.4 the second turret has moved from the motorcycle cage to down the hall from the first turret. Have some way of healing in your quickslot, just in case. Hopefully, you can hit it while it's just out of range of you. The only way to destroy it is to use a gun, preferably an AK-47, M16 or VSS Vintorez, then walk up to it and start firing. There are two turrets on level -1 in Bunker Alfa. The Frenzied Giant has two types: fast and very hard hitting (1 shot to every armor up to tactical, haven't tested swat yet) and the slow hard hitting one (80+ damage with full Tactical Armor) A minigun and an AK-47, Tactical Armor Set are found inside, along with a new type of zombie Frenzied Giant. In update 1.5, the lower level of Bunker A was unlocked. ![]() Once activated you get 24h access to the first level, after that it will close and reset and you will have to get a new code. Codes change everyday and may be different for some even though it's the same day, but normally one code will work for >90% players. Otherwise, craft a CB radio and it will display the code. To get your code, head out to a red zone (forest or quarry) and look for the body of a Dead Survivor. There is a computer which requires a code to open the vault. Loot in this location does not respawn once taken, so players shouldn't waste energy going back again once he/she has looted everything. Unlike Bunker Bravo, there are no zombies inside at the top level, just a lot of loot. Upon entering the location for the first time, there should be a lootable corpse with the CAC Card needed to enter the bunker. ![]() Bunker Alfa is one of the explorable bunkers on the world map.

This is because manufacturers are not required to set or advise of any expiry date for bandages in most cases. ![]() The vast majority of bandages do not have any kind of printed expiration date, with the exceptions being certain ones with an adhesive component or perhaps impregnated antibiotic or hemostatic agents. ![]() Warning Signs of Low or No Bandage “Life” If the bandages in your first-aid kit get drenched from precipitation, immersion in water, or just from perspiration off your body (in the case of an on body EDC kit), it is likely that the adhesive and fabric components both will be negatively affected, and sterility may be compromised.Īlso, anytime the interior of your first-aid kit is contaminated by dust, dirt, or other debris this has the potential to abrade and subsequently degrade or even compromise the packaging of your bandages, if they are packed, and thus shorten their lifespan. Moisture is the perennial enemy of all kinds of soft gear, bandages included. Freezing temperatures make bandages difficult to handle, inflexible and brittle, greatly stressing the fabrics.ĭepending on the quality and specific make of an adhesive bandage, that adhesive might not react well to extremely cold temperatures, losing its stickiness entirely or behaving erratically when you need it. If the bandages in your kit are exposed to extreme temperature spikes, let us say, for instance, due to being kept in a car sitting in a parking lot in the middle of summer, it is highly likely they will begin to break down, especially if they have any adhesive components.Ĭold weather too is also a problem, especially in conjunction with any moisture infiltration. Weather / Environmental FactorsĪs you probably already guessed, ambient conditions and weather will also play a big part in how long your bandages will remain a viable tool in your life saving first-aid kit. Over time, the bandages in your first-aid kit will be subjected to hot and cold, humidity and extreme dryness, and countless bumps, jostles, and other impacts that result in friction forces being imparted to the bandage itself.Īll of these things will however slowly wear your bandages out without ever taking them out of the package. ![]() Not forever.īeing made of simple woven fibers (or a fiber pad affixed to an adhesive strap or backing) the simple passage of time will eventually degrade the performance of any bandage. The first thing you should understand about the bandages in your first-aid kit is that they will not endure. There is a surprising number of factors to consider, and in the rest of this article we will be going through them. So why you might say that most bandages don’t technically expire, they can go bad over time, especially when they have been neglected or left in bad conditions. ![]() Specialized bandages with impregnated medicines or blood-clotting agents can expire as usual, however. Simple gauze or wrap bandages might lose their sterility over time, and will definitely be vulnerable to aging via mold and general decay.īandages with adhesive components are vulnerable to aging due to adhesive breakdown and other factors. No, bandages don’t expire, but they do degrade over time. But what about the other, more mundane supplies in the kit? What about bandages? new bandages (left) next to older ones (right) Ointments lose their potency, medications go stale or expire, and antibiotics can spoil. Any prepper with even a modicum of first-aid training will pay close attention to the status and shelf life of the items in his first-aid kit. ![]() ![]() ![]() Users can access their entire photo library on iCloud, and view their photos and videos at a life-size scale with brilliant color and spectacular detail.

The step is wired directly into each door’s sensors so that every time you open one, it triggers the electric motor on that side of the vehicle. Installation of the AMP PowerSteps isn’t overwhelmingly difficult, but it’s certainly not a simple plug and play accessory either. The eyes of everyone at AMP Research are trained to look at everyday life, and envision new products that prove themselves in the marketplace.” But before there’s either, there’s observation. ![]() Thomas Edison remarked that invention is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration. “Finding the simple, functional solution to a complex design challenge is the goal of every AMP Research innovation. They address the shortcomings of traditional running boards by utilizing the most obvious solution: being present when you need them, and retracting beneath the vehicle when you don’t. Although their long-term durability remains to be tested, we are pleased with every other aspect of their performance thus far.ĪMP Research is all about making simple products to solve common sense problems, and the PowerStep is the embodiment of that ethos. They’re produced in the USA, and undergo strenuous testing in mud and salt, with temperatures ranging from -40° to 200☏. We found the steps to be well made, with practical design elements and a clean look. This makes them an ideal way to improve the function of your truck or SUV in day to day life without reducing its capability on the trail. It didn’t take long to find a solution in the form of AMP Research’s PowerStep.ĪMP’s PowerSteps automatically deploy when a door is opened and retract up underneath the vehicle when the door closes. I hopped online and started searching for running boards that could stand up to off-road use, and wouldn’t reduce the truck’s breakover angle or get caught up on the trail. At that point, I had already been experiencing ankle and wrist pain myself from hopping in and out of the truck, so her fall was the straw that broke the camel’s back, and fortunately not her back. Unfortunately, it’s not always as easy as just discarding your running boards and never looking back, a realization that struck me hard when my girlfriend’s mother fell onto an icy road while attempting to get into my Excursion. Worse, many of these steps are tucked so close to the body that they offer little advantage-it’s no wonder why they quickly find their way to the rubbish bin. That’s because they significantly reduce the breakover angle and are usually the first thing to receive damage on the trail, often harming the vehicle in the process. ![]() Some of the vehicles we have been supplying Side Steps to include:ĬTO Industries can also advise you on the best Side Steps for your 4 Wheel Drive vehicle build whether that be for on road, Offroad, Overlanding or Competition.Ĭontact us today to learn more details about the CTO Industries range of 4X4 Side Steps.The overland community certainly has its debates: Toyota versus Land Rover, wide tires versus tall skinny tires, roof tent versus ground tent and so much more, but there’s one thing that almost all of us can agree on, and that’s the removal of factory running boards. Instead of sitting proud permanently, they tuck back into the sill area of the vehicle after the doors are closed. The AMP Research steps keep the clean lines of your 4X4 because they automatically deploy upon opening each door giving you a sturdy and functional step to climb up into your rig.

If you own a device like a smartphone or a tablet, in addition to your Mac, then chances are you’ve probably heard of synchronization software. The most interesting comparison here is for the older S4 devices against the newer but mid-range Snapdraon 400 devices, the Lumia 830 (and 735).The Lumia 920/925 and the 1020 should be almost identical, but there's a significant difference in favour of the older devices, perhaps because of the slightly non-standard configuration for the graphics chipset on the 1020? Or could it be that the extra Gigabyte of RAM is being used, but with a slight performance penalty while all the bits are shuffled around? The difference isn't huge, but I thought it worth noting.Interesting results then, with a few baseline conclusions. With the Sunspider javascript benchmark, included here as an extra (more processor-centric) data point, less is better (representing time in milliseconds to complete the requested operations). With the GFXBench stats, more is better, if you see what I mean, e.g. The restriction to only working on devices with 1GB or more of RAM (and preferably 2GB) is a bit of a pain, but there's still plenty of data that's worth highlighting.Īs usual with tables on AAWP and issues viewing them on Windows Phones because of the 'responsive design' and quirks in IE, the table is also available here as an image, gfxtable.jpg. Regardless, I thought the utility might be very interesting to use to answer questions about the relative performance of the various recent generations of Windows Phone. So there's a heavy focus on graphics speed, though of course processor speed and RAM also come into the equation here. ![]() they're mostly quite pretty to watch and give a good indication of device speed for games, for example. ![]() Two of the graphics demos, screenshotted. (right) There's a hefty 50MB download of resource and data files - this seems to be mandatory as you can't continue without this 'sync'. The main UI, in which you can run any or all of the graphics tests, plus compare scores for any test to those from hundreds of other devices. GFXBench DirectX is a suite of high-level and low-level 3D graphics test that measures the performance of DirectX 11 (feature level 9 and 10) implementations on various Windows devices (Windows Phone 8.0/8.1, Windows RT, Windows 8.1). Using console-quality 3D content, GFXBench provides tools for cross-platform 3D graphics benchmarking on all major desktop and mobile platforms (Windows Phone, Windows, iOS, OS X, Android). GFXBench is a free, cross-platform and cross-API 3D graphics benchmark that measures graphics performance, long-term performance stability, render quality and power consumption with a single, easy-to-use application. Ah well - there's little point in benchmarking at this low end anyway - there, it's all about price point. I did try GFXBench on lower-specced devices like the 512MB RAM Lumia 530 but it wouldn't run beyond its first warning message about resources needed. ![]() In the mix here were the Nokia Lumia 830, 930, 1020 and 920, the first two representing the newest x00 series of processors and the latter two the older S4 units. |
