What is included in the Lightning X Fill Kit Charlie?
Fill Kit Charlie includes 40+ supplies organized into: instruments (tweezers, hemostats, trauma shears, bandage shears, penlight), wound care (100 band-aids, 50 gauze pads, roll gauze, ABD pads, bandages, alcohol wipes, antibiotic ointment, cold packs, eye pads, triangle bandages, eye wash, exam gloves, SAM finger splint), airway (Berman OPA kit x6, CPR mask, BVM, nasal cannula x2, non-rebreather x2), advanced trauma (10″×30″ trauma dressing, transparent chest seal, hemostatic spray, tourniquet), vitals/immobilization (adult BP cuff, Sprague stethoscope, roll splint, cervical collar), and burn/other supplies.
What are the dimensions of the Lightning X MB35 Premium ALS Trauma Bag?
The MB35 measures 20 inches long by 16 inches wide by 10 inches high. This mid-large size positions it as a genuine ALS trauma call bag — large enough to carry all non-oxygen ALS supplies while maintaining a manageable footprint for vehicle carry and hand-carry deployment. It weighs approximately 8 lbs (3,629 g) fully stocked as shipped.
How does Fill Kit Charlie differ from Fill Kit F (also on the MB35)?
Both kits use the MB35 bag platform. Fill Kit F is the premium configuration, adding significant upgrades: a digital automatic BP cuff (vs. manual in Charlie), premium cardiology stethoscope (vs. Sprague), fingertip pulse oximeter, suture set, digital thermometer, folding pocket knife, 4 cold packs (vs. 2), 4 triangle bandages (vs. 2), a second roll splint, and QuikClot EMS bandage in addition to hemostatic spray. Charlie is the mid-tier configuration offering solid ALS capability at a lower price point.
Does the MB35 Fill Kit Charlie include a tourniquet?
Yes. Fill Kit Charlie includes a tourniquet in the advanced trauma section of the kit. For customers who require a specific CoTCCC-recommended tourniquet brand, MED-TAC recommends the NAR C-A-T Gen 7 or SAM XT — both available separately in our hemorrhage control collection — and can be used to supplement or replace the included tourniquet when building a tactically optimized loadout.
What colors are available for the Premium ALS Trauma Bag with Fill Kit Charlie?
The MB35 with Fill Kit Charlie is available in Black (MB35-SKC-Black), Orange (MB35-SKC-Orange), Navy Blue (MB35-SKC-Navy Blue), and Red (MB35-SKC-Red). Orange and Red are high-visibility choices for EMS staging visibility. Black and Navy Blue suit law enforcement vehicle staging and professional clinical environments.
