Thanks for the reply.
I've never used the granular product either, but think it would be more effective at a wound that I can't get under control with a Izzy Bandage or TQ. The little "Sport" model sponge doesn't seem like a lot of product...especially for $10 at Gander Mountain (which means it cost about $0.50 everywhere else).
I think that if you want to carry the stuff around, you need to realize the potential its use entails for creating an unwanted thrombotic/embolic event. A tourniquet might be for life or limb use only. This stuff needs to be for life and death only situations because of the very real potential it has for an adverse and deadly outcome.
