Camping is just about to get a whole lot better. Here are a few products to take your outdoor experience to a new level.
When it comes to the outdoors, spending a weekend outside can certainly be a challenge if you do not have the right gear. The folks at Bracketron know just that, which is why they created a SmartLantern, a very helpful charger, lantern and flashlight combination unit that is ideal for any outdoor experience. What makes this model so unique is that just one charge on the rechargeable 7800mAh capacity SmartLantern battery offers 48 hours of flashlight or lantern illumination or up to five full charges to your mobile device. It also includes eight high- power LED lights (64 lumens), perfect for roadside emergencies, camping and other outdoor activities. Even better, the battery can store its charge for up to one year for added peace-of-mind in emergency preparedness kits.
Everyone needs a little music when faced with a weekend outdoors. To make the experience a whole lot better, take along with you for the ride the Skullcandy Budweiser Air Raid Bluetooth Speaker. This rugged wireless speaker is made with a protective silicone boot sleeve for impact and water-resistance. We love the military-inspired style of this compact speaker and Skullcandy's Supreme Sound technology that delivers booming bass and precision high notes. The model comes with a rechargeable battery with a power indicator and wall power adapter.
If you are going fishing while on your camping expedition, be sure to take along the Satechi Go Mate Waterproof Pouch Case to keep your iPhone dry. The case is waterproof up to 20 feet, but its double waterproof seal further protectsyour smartphone from water, dirt, rain, snow, sand, or mud. When the phone is in its case, there is a clear, touch-sensitive front panel lets you use your smartphone. Secure it around your neck with the lanyard for hands-free use.
One of the best ways to get a great taste for the outdoors is with a portable charcoal grill. We love the stylish portable BBQ suitcase by Kikkerland Design. This grill is large enough for two people to create a delicious meal. It’s so easy to use – just unfold the case and heat up the charcoals. There is a mess-free ash catcher to make for an easier cleanup. Once the unit has cooled down, simply lock it closed for easy transport.
Safety is key when camping because we all know anything can happen. In case of an issue, you want to be prepared and VSSL Units makes sure you are. We recommend theirSupplies kit that comes with everything you need and more, including a dual mode (static and SOS) LED ‘flood’ beam lantern light (of course batteries are included), oil-filled compass, four-hour pure Canadian beeswax candle, razor blade, six Aquatabs water purification tablets and a wire saw (high tensile, 60lb working strength with handle straps). As if that were not enough, it also includes an aluminum beadless emergency whistle, waterproof matches, Tinder Quik fire starters, fishing gear, a signaling mirror, marine grade rope (250lb breaking strength), reflective trail markers, P38 military GI Type can opener, first aid supplies and instructions on the VSSL priorities of survival. Other kits include first aid and shelter.
