4) NOCO Boost Plus GB40
My NOCO Boost Plus has bailed me out of a jam before. I suggest you carry a jump starter in every car you take on a road trip this holiday season. As a bonus, the NOCO can be used as a power bank with USB ports for device charging.
5) Baofeng UV-9G GMRS Radio
The Baofeng UV-9G is a GMRS handheld radio. This is great for communicating during hiking, traveling, and keeping intouch in an emergency. The 9G is IP67 waterproof and dustproof making it a great radio for the outdoors.

I love the Anker 535 portable power station because it provides reliable, long-lasting power when I need it most. Its compact design makes it easy to take anywhere, whether for camping trips or unexpected power outages. With multiple charging ports, it can handle all my devices simultaneously, from phones to laptops to fans.

Durable and versatile, this watch is ideal for active lifestyles while still looking sharp enough for formal events.
11) SLNT Faraday Phone Sleeve
SLNT makes a variety of Faraday solutions for phones, tablets, laptops, and car keys. I can attest that they do take your devices off-grid and protect them from cellular, wi-fi, Bluetooth, EMF, RFID, and GPS signals.

12) JBL Clip 4: Portable Speaker with Bluetooth
I very much enjoy my CLIP4 from JBL. I use it for working outside, in the house, and even working on the car. The sound is great and starts up fast. The clip is great for attaching it to a backpack or whatever is around you.

People say this water bottle will change your life. I have one and I understand the hype. You can sip out of it through the straw, or use the free pour lid to drink out of it. There are no parts to swap, sip the way you want.
15) Ring Alarm 8-piece kit
Do-it-yourself home security with Ring. If you have a Ring doorbell already, then upgrade your home's security with an 8-piece home security system. If you can use double-sided tape and connect a device to your Wi-Fi, then you can install this system.
16) Sennheiser Consumer Audio HD 450BT Bluetooth 5.0 Wireless Headphone
These are the best headphones I've ever had. I use them to master The Secure Dad Podcast. I use active noise cancellation for uninterrupted listening pleasure. The 450BTs have a 30-hour battery life with USB-C fast charging.
17) OLIGHT I3T 2 EOS Pocket EDC Flashlight
I like the OLIGHT I3T 2 EOS Pocket EDC Flashlight because its 200 lumens offer impressive brightness in a compact design. It’s lightweight and easy to carry, making it perfect for everyday use or emergencies. The durable build and dual-output modes ensure reliable performance whenever I need it.

Answer your door no matter where you are from your smartphone with 1080p HD day and infrared night video and two-way audio. Experience long-lasting battery life, custom alerts, privacy settings, and more.
20) Anker Prime Power Bank
I like the Anker Prime Power Bank because its high-capacity battery keeps all my devices powered throughout the day, no matter where I am. Its fast-charging capabilities save me time. I use it often to charge my phone, tablet, and laptop while traveling, working remotely, or during power outages.
Merry Christmas and have a wonderful holiday season. I hope a gift from this guide will help you put a smile on the face of the Secure Dad in your life.
Remember when you go holiday shopping, do your best to hide your items in your car in the trunk or cargo area. This will help you avoid a potential break-in.
