Default Lucky plugger puncture repair kits?

I've often thought it was a good idea to have a get-me-home puncture reapir kit under my seat, the guy who recovered me after my last puncture (on my birthday no less!) recommended a kit called the Lucky Plugger.

I haven't been able to find any reference to these online. Anyone on here know anything about them, or recomend another?

Talking Re: Lucky plugger puncture repair kits?

Not heard of that one, I've got a Rep & Air kit from Hein Gerricke under my seat. Not used my one, but I have seen one being used and the repair was good enough to last a trip from the Lake District back to Portsmouth.

Sticky string is my favourite roadside temporary repair, that said all of them work well enough and the ones I've seen that haven't been successful probably wouldn't have held up whatever was used.
