Those StormBags look like a fantastic product. There's a LOT of people that are prone to outdoor flooding between flash floods from thunderstorms and also hurricanes, and unfortunately it seems more and more people are becoming vulnerable to it. That it does its thing just by getting wet is really, really cool. Kevin is right that it's hard to compete with free in conventional sandbags, but I would love to see these become the free or otherwise low-cost option. Yes, traditional sandbags are "free", but how much are you spending on labor filling them up and tossing them down a line of people? Bit of a sad irony that they suffered a polar opposite disaster in a wildfire burning everything down though. And go figure, right as I'm writing this comment, our hot water tank sprung a bit of a leak and these would've been handy to have even though it was caught early. I think Mark and Lori have a very versatile home-run on their hands.
Couldn't help but laugh when Daniel and Daymond were in that bidding war with Mark and Lori and Mr. Wonderful said "That sandbag's gonna blow up, you've gotta make a decision!".
