Does anyone have/carry an ICE - In Case of Emergency - Capsule?

[Haze]

Does anyone have or carry an ICE - In Case of Emergency - Capsule?
Mine has broken after 6 yrs and needs to be replaced.
This is a capsule that hangs on my Jacket Zipper FOB.
Its about 1+" long, 1/2" wide, and hollow. It contains a rolled up note with
medical info that may be needed in an accident situation.

Anyway I can't find the manufacturer or distributor. There is no logo or name
on the remnants of the cap. A google search was fruitless.

Any ideas???

Hi Dave,
Found some pill holders on Amazon. $7 and choice of colors.

Our riding season is evaporating rapidly

These days, I wear what's called a Medic Alert Dog-Tag &/or a Medic Alert Bracelet, both of which have a brief note of the most important concerns about my medical conditions; an International Phone Number for them; and a Unique ID Number for me/my records that links to all my Important Medical Notes, Specialists, Doctors etc. And I can attest that it works, both here in Oz and Overseas.

Check their Australian site out here:

Sorry no exact item, but I'm sure that any various key chain pill containers could substitute.

As well, you could store a few ICE contacts in your cell phone; or have a Laminated card that sits with your ID... Additional copies with bike papers & so on. Some smart phone operating systems have emergency access even when locked to do just what you provide; any first responders who find your device can use accordingly. FYI, here's Apple:

*medical ID.

I do understand the peace of mind for having something, & personally, whenever meeting/group riding with new people, I make sure to address some of these things before starting out; Destination, proposed roads, hand signals, understandings of travel time/endurance levels & so on.

Just a thought (Providing my now longer list of medical restrictions/conditions is kind of a required warning/explanation)

I do have an ICE card that is attached to the motorcycle and another in my pocket. I downloaded from somewhere but don't remember where, it has been a while.

The ICE tag that I use is about 1in by 2in and opens up to a usb thumb drive on which you can record loads of information. I am on 15 different daily tablets and there is room for much more information you may want medics to know about. I have had mine for over 10 years but they are still available on ebay, just search.

No capsule, but have ICE numbers listed on my cell phone and wear old military dog tags that have blood type and ID information on them.

I probably should get updated medic alert of some type, but I don't go off on long runs anymore. I just need one that says older than dirt.

I have a medical ID app on the home page of my phone (I have an android). It's a free app and you can input everything a medical person needs to know in an emergency situation. I also wear a medical dog tag.

I have mine in a plastic sleeve attached to the inside of the vest

I'm in Peter's camp, have worn a Medic Alert dog tag for many years. I spoke with a medic before I began wearing the alert dog tag who said that tag was the first thing they were taught to look for on a victim.

Now there is a great idea. Thanks for suggesting it. I also have android phone and it already has a notepad app in the menu that would be suitable for doing that. I have been keeping tag and insurance information on it, but no reason a medical information and contacts page could not be added.

I am on warfarin blood thinner, so I wear this 24/7/365. Back side is engraved. My smart phone has my stepson's phone number on the lock screen.

EarPeace ear plugs come in an aluminum waterproof capsule. There's room enough to stuff a small note in. Also, many jackets have a zipper pocket by the cuff for ICE info.

Like Peter, and JayBros. I wear a medical alert bracelet with an ID#, and phone numbers of my wife and two daughters. Wife has one also. We wear them when leaving the house. The ID# also has a phone number that will give health officials my medical info. My name is on it also, in case I forget who I am. Cheap insurance if it's ever needed. I also have a large emblem on the windshield of our RT and our truck. It has the name and number to call if we need an air ambulance. It will also pay the tab to get us home. Tom

I wear a Road iD bracelet with medical symbol and family contact info on it.

I use these https://shop.getmyid.com/collections...id-sticker-kit in conjunction with a helmet sticker/sleeve http://store-idformyhelmet-com.3dcartstores.com/.

I put the QR code inside the sleeve on my helmet...

I keep a small piece of paper with my ICE info in my wallet next to my drivers license.

Thanks for posting this Haze. I have always carried contact information in my wallet, and had ICE numbers on my cell phone. Due to this topic and the discussions, I have placed an order for 2 sets of engraved medical alert dog tags. They are not real expensive and give a lot more information for EMTs than my old military dog tags did. I wore my old military dog tags when I was riding way back when, but they only had my name rank and serial number. The med alert dog tags I ordered have 5 lines that can be custom engraved with any info you want to put on them. Smaller than the old military dog tags and lighter. Got an email this morning that the ones ordered are completed and shipped. They will have my full name, blood type, 2 ICE contacts with their phone numbers, Medical conditions that EMTs should be aware of, where to find more medical info on my cell phone. The plan is to attach one tag to the inside of the vest I always wear when riding, and wear the other one around my neck. I wore dog tags 24 hours a day for over 20 years, so the medical alert tag will not be a problem. Never really thought about it before, but if some asshat comes by a wreck, grabs your cell phone and wallet, and takes off, the EMTs would have to run your prints or tag number just to find out who you are and what your blood type is.

Thanks again for posting this and for all the responses to it. The custom engraved tags I ordered were stainless steel and only about $12 each. Cheap insurance that might save your life and would certainly make contacting your family a lot faster and easier. Hope I don't never need to use them, but like some other things, it is better to have them and not need them, than to need them and not have them.
