Keeping a few siphon's around is a very important, and useful prep. To make a siphon all one really needs is a tube of some sort, a container placed lower then the actual liquid, and suction (typically your breath.) This is useful in many situations to move, or remove liquid from hard to reach locations.
For the survivalist, realizing that a disaster can be 'long-term' is an all to real possibility. A siphon can be paramount in helping to obtain very necessary liquids like; water, and fuel. These two liquids will be like gold in any disaster, and difficult to obtain.
I suggest the following siphon, not because siphon's will be hard to come by, but because anyone who has siphoned a liquid by creating a vacuum with their breath can tell you; you end up with the liquid in your mouth. Not only is this a big problem with things like gasoline, but it can also be a problem if you try and siphon 'dirty' water. The following siphon alleviates this problem instantly by providing the tube with an easy to use pump attached to the tube. It sill allows the tube to be lightweight, and cheap which is an important trait in any prep. In times like these, where the only certain thing left is uncertainty, do your best to make sure your prep's cover a wide range of possibilities.
