PYYROS: The Ultimate Survival Tool + Flashlight and much more!

*** We have been featured on BACKERCLUB.CO !! ***

PYYROS is the brain child of Adam Nichols, a US Military veteran and avid outdoorsman. Throughout his military career and life experience, Adam noticed that in every emergency situation - military, natural disasters, expedition emergencies on land, air and sea - three elements are essential: light, fire and power.

PYYROS contains these elements and so much more! It even includes a Personal Beacon Locator (PBL) transmitting on both the 121.5mhz + 406mhz frequencies, making search + rescue possible anywhere on the planet.

MODULAR & EXPANDABLE

PYYROS is 100% modular and expandable. Add our basic survival modules: CrossFire Fire Starter, screwdriver set, Personal Beacon Locator, USB power generator, and hammer cap or purchase empty modules (post-Kickstarter) to house own tools, like a mending kit, medication, money, etc...

PYYROS is designed to work for you, exactly the way you need it!

Available in three colors - Aluminium anodized, Jet Black anodized and Red Fire anodized. PYYROS also comes in special edition natural Titanium color with a polished silver finish.

PERSONAL BEACON LOCATOR:

DUAL BAND 121.5MHz & 406MHz

PYYROS PBL - We developed the second smallest dual band Personal Beacon Locator in the world! It is 100% compliant with the international COSPAS - SARSAT standards. Thanks to the digital 406MHz satellite frequency, search + rescue teams can locate you in the case of an emergency - anywhere on the planet!

*Disclaimer: The PYYROS PBL is not a toy and must be used ONLY in case of real emergency where your life is in imminent danger. It is impossible to accidentally activate the PBL.

PYYROS: THE MAKING OF...

We understand and are greatful that as one of our backers you are investing your hard earned money into a PYYROS. To show full transparency in the making of PYYROS, here are a few pictures of PYYROS going from an idea to a drawing to a final fully functional prototype ready for production.

As a backer or a future backer feel free to ask us any questions about the development and production of PYYROS.

All well though out products must start with a drawing. below is a CAD composite image of four drawings; the flashlight head, the main body, the 1" module (which will house he PBL unit, Iodide water purifying pills, etc..), and the four components, the hammer cap which will be made of Stainless steel and titanium (depending on he model you choose).

PYYROS CAD Drawings

Once we were satisfied with the drawings we moved on to building 3D printed prototypes to make sure each component fit perfectly well, can house all the electrical components, and then we tweaked as needed.

3D Printing using the MakerBot

Our team needed to prove that the idea and concept would work 100% as we deisgned it to work, and make sure PYYROS would never fail in any emergency situation - anywhere in the world! We took the next step of building 10 fully functional PYYROS units which were also used to create our promotional video and all our marketing material.

The blue tape seen in the pictures above and below is protective tape to avoid scratching or damaging the PYYROS during assembly.

MANUFACTURING + MARKETING PARTNERS

PYYROS is a project which requires many specialized companies to come together to create one awesome product - from the aviation grade 6061-T6 and titanium milling, to the high precision and miniature electronics for the PYYROS PBL and everything in between. This is why we selected our manufacturing partners before starting our Kickstarter campaign to give all our backers the confidence needed that PYYROS is the real deal!
