Minimum tool kit (page 2)

a Fiber Fix Spoke is one of those items that I bought and carried.  Now it has disappeared. Some years back we were touring with friends outside of Steamboat Springs, CO, when Steve broke a spoke. A friend offered his Fiber Fix Spoke, but Steve said there was no use wasting it, as he would only go straight to the bike shop in Steamboat anyway. That seemed reasonable. 

A sub question to your question, is if one of those spokes is good for multi day use, or just to quickly ride to the nearest shop.

Yes, a Fiberfix spoke will last for many days of use. The only time I needed one I used it for about 10 days to finish the tour.
