Sign Making
FUMILE Jumbo Poster Markers, 15mm
Large-tip black markers, good for bold lettering on poster board.
Laminator (10 mil)
Can laminate with 10 mil (thick) sheets, which most can't. Good for durable weather-resistant signs.
Noisemakers
Pyle 50W Rechargeable Megaphone
One of the most reliable megaphones out there. Loud, and lasts longer than most.
Mgrolx Rechargeable Megaphone
Built-in rechargeable battery. No trigger lock, so use a rubber band if you don't want to hold it. Also sold under Uzochi and Pyle — get whatever is cheapest.
MyMealivos 35W Megaphone
Smaller. Not as loud as a 50W megaphone, but good for its size.
5 CORE 50W Megaphone
Not yet tested, but an affordable matte-black, slim 50w megaphone.
Air Raid Siren
Can be good in cities where noisemakers are allowed but megaphones aren't.
Sidewalk Art
Sidewalk Chalk
Comes in individually wrapped packs. Lower variety of colors is helpful for finishing designs.
Dye for Fake Blood
Mix with clear soap or corn syrup and a bit of water to make fake blood.
Soap for Fake Blood
Any clear soap will work. This is one option — use whatever clear dish soap you have.
Earplugs
Disposable Earplugs (100 Pack)
Larger packs are cheaper per pair. Good for distributing at loud actions.
Reusable Earplugs (Loop Style)
Knockoff Loops that are just as good. A little expensive to give out for free, but nice for personal use. Can find cheaper on eBay under different names.
Cough Drops
Ricola Cough Drops
Good for when activists' voices are getting tired from chanting.
Camera Gear
DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro
Excellent quality action camera. Note: footage is not encrypted, so there is some risk of footage being accessed if the device is seized. The Osmo Action 6 isn't enough of an improvement to justify the higher price for most activist use. Can sometimes be hard to find in the USA.
Magnetic Chest Mount
Attaches magnetically through a shirt or jacket. Compatible with DJI Osmo and similar action cameras.
Privacy Gear
Google Pixel
The phone to get if you want to run GrapheneOS — a hardened, more private version of Android. GrapheneOS only runs on Pixel hardware.
Webcam / Phone Camera Cover
Works great on phones and laptops. Ultra-thin slide cover — quick to open and close.
Privacy Screen Protector
Any tempered glass privacy screen protector. Which one to buy depends on your phone model — search for your specific phone. Prevents shoulder-surfing in public.
Wired Headphones
Wired headphones can't be tracked the way Bluetooth ones can. Any wired option works — no specific recommendation since availability varies.
