I'm also pretty certain that the 14lb items are batteries.
I agree with this. While it is definitely possible that is is bumper fabric, I find it highly unlikely that they would put the fabric in rolls and not just fold it up. And if the were rolling it it seems like it would make much more sense to roll it the other direction.
