Light, Inexpensive essential items (light & soap) - Camping Gear

by Paul
(Sacramento, CA, USA)

I found a couple of very light, very basic, but very essential items for camping.

I'm always loosing my flashlight, so in searching for additional lighting help I found a 'Cord Lock LED Light', that you can use with a hoodie, jacket, or sleeping bag. Since it attached to the hoodie or jacket, you don't loose it.

I found a 1 pack on REI for 9.95, but found a 3 pack on gofastandlight.com for 19.95. The LED light has other attributes: it's got replaceable batteries; it's no throw away unit. It has three light/flashing modes, so you can choose the most efficient way to use your battery time (12 hrs high, 20 hrs low, 50 flashing).

The second item is basic, hand soap, but in sheets (or ultra light soap leaves). There are 50 sheets in a small plastic container, there are 4 scents, and it was about 4.95 at gofastandlight.com when I last purchased them.

Both products have performed very well, I definitely will be back for more.

Camping made easy with a Black Pine Turbo Tent

by Randy
(Winnebago, IL. USA)

Camping has always been and will always be the best recreation for the entire family.



When it comes time to pick up needed gear for the trip there are several factors to consider, what size and how will it hold up under all weather conditions, I have run across a tent that will give you the results your looking for in a tent such as, sets up in less than 1 minute, all poles are integrated within the frame without having to rely on guess work for pole placement and the headache of pitching a traditional tent.

With a Turbo Tent by Black Pine you simply lay out the tent, lock in the joints,and push up the top, that's all there is to it.

These tents are available from 4 person models to 3 room 12 person tents. Spend more time enjoying the outdoors!

Boat loaders

I wanted to tell anyone interested in getting a boat loader to check this out. I have searched for a couple years for a way to haul my boat and pull my camper. This rack they call the model 310 carries the boat right side up so I can leave the motor on.

I bought mine direct from tdipowerrack.com. It just feels good to write a positive review on a product for a change
