What do you carry in your spy capsule?

I just picked up a spy capsule, for my keychain, and was wondering what to put in it. I don't carry any kind of medication, but was thinking about putting a couple of tablets(Tylenol or Advil) in it for those unexpected headaches or maybe a piece of paper with my name, phone number, etc., in case I ever lose my keys.:rolleyes:

What do you keep in your spy capsule? Does anyone have any tips?

Thanks in advance.;)
 
Including your name and address with your keys is inviting trouble. Should the keys be found by the wrong individual, that person knows where the keys will function. Just my .02.
 
Small ones, heart and allergy meds.

Large one hasn't been packed yet, but I'm playing with firestarting items like strike-anywhere matches, cotton balls, petroleum jelly based antibiotic packets, magnesium shavings, and a BSA sparklite.

Extraction becomes a problem with the larger one if you pack too much in.

They do rock for carrying cash though..
 
Spy stuff. . .of course. ;)





Actually, $$ and some headache med's.
 
Thanks for all of your replies, you guys.

I think that I may just put that Tylenol and some extra cash in that capsule. It's a medium size, so I'm sure that I won't be having any trouble fitting everything in.

P.S.-Neanderthal, just FYI, I was going to just put my name and cell # on a piece of paper.;) I appreciate your opinion, and I know what you mean about those lunatics out there. Thanks
 
small - a rolled - up 5 euro note

large - a cut down Swedish Firesteel acquired from Bagheera
 
Small one:
Tightly rolled GBP (£) 20 note.

Useful for petrol(gas) and emergency fish and chips (still a useful standby in England, although I understand we do have a small number of McDonalds establishments:) )

I'm considering sticking some pain relief meds in one, but not decided yet - as I don't have all that much room on the keys

My Key ring has Swisstech micro plus, Traser, sliver grippers, Comtech stinger, Fox40 whistle, PhotonII Micro light, spy capsule, mini carabiner to attach it to my belt. [and keys]

For a while I had a baton lite on there too, which I tucked IWB to carry them, but when the keys were out it just looked err, a bit OTT.
 
Waterproof matches and striker strip, Tylenol Extra-Strength, allergy pills, a couple rolled up bandages, small roll of dental floss.
 
you can buy a little packet of regular pain medicine in any deli or gas station for about 50 cents US... I'd put Vicodin HP... 10 mg of Hydrocodone Bitrate... for severe pain relief just short of morphine.
 
Y'know, I got two of the large ones. Thought I could carry spare cash, some pills, something like that. Before I decided what to put in it, I clipped it on my belt-loop key chain. Three days later, the capsule unscrewed and I found the main portion on the floor. I'm pretty glad I didn't have a $20 bill in it.

I'be heard some people using black electrical tape to close them, but that doesn't suit my use at all. Warned the wife not to put any cash in hers, either.

So I have a cool looking capsule on my desk.
 
Jim,

Never had one do that ... you want another free of charge?

PS. Case in point ... I have one on my dogs collar with all of her contact info in it. She runs, swims, and rolls around ... that thing is still on her a year later.
 
Ryan,

Naw, man. Please don't think I was trying to badmouth you or the capsules. If you say you've never had it happen, I'll hook it to my keys again, empty, and give it another chance. If it opens again, I'll let you know.

Fair enough?
 
I've never had any of my spy capsules unscrew on me, don't really see how that could happen. The o-ring is hefty enough that you can screw the cap down pretty darn tight.
 
Heya, jimsix.

yeah, give it another shot.
I'd not risk £20 ($30) if I wasn't happy with it.

Like your columns by the way.
Nearly risked a reply on your board, too!
 
To all that have orders of capsules ... I will get to all of them this weekend. With my new job, I have little time for anything else except on the weekends. Sorry guys for the delay. I will get to all the e-mails though.
