Gadgets for a richer Camping Experience
Gouthwaithe Backpack 23L
Designed and branded by Bear, a company designed for people, this bag’s design combines simple aesthetics with practicality. One of its most notable features is the quick release buckle which holds the top together. This type of buckle ordinarily finds its use with rescue services e.g uniforms and parachutes. Placed on a backpack, this assures the user quick access to the contents of the bag. The advantages this will give in case of an emergency cannot be understated.
Another advantage of this product is that it is waterproof. This means that it can be washed without the user fearing that the material would fade, it also means you can walk under a waterfall and still you’re your clothes and what not dry and snug in your backpack.
This backpack is also eco-friendly. The waxed canvas material of the bag is made without the use of the dangerous chemicals that would be used in waterproof coatings. So you can wash this in streams without contaminating the water or the waterways connected to it.
Biolite FirePit+
No camp is complete without a bonfire (or barbecue). The eye watering smoke takes some of the fun out of it though. That is why this is just perfect for your camp experience.
The FirePit+ has a simple concept going for it; it eliminates smoke by making your fire hotter. This is done with the help of battery powered fans, placed at the bottom of the fire basket. These fans stoke the flames while the mesh sides of the basket let air in. The improved airflow means your fire burns hotter, thus producing less smoke.
At their highest, the fans can last at least 7 hours. At their lowest, they can go for at least 30 hours. The battery of the fans is also rechargeable via USB.
Now you can gather around, put some charcoal in your FirePit+, set a grill on top, and have yourself a barbecue without that pesky eye-watering smoke.
Le Feu bioethanol fireplace
This eco-friendly alternative to a traditional log burner works by burning bioethanol, which is made from biomass like plant waste. This burns cleanly, unlike the polluting fuels used in log burners. While in use, this biofuel burner can produce enough heat to warm up a 20m2 room.
Its portable size means you can move it around, change the direction it faces, or even use it outside (before such activities are carried out, please make sure the fire is off).
Another advantage of this is that you do not need to have a chimney before installing one, although the company recommends leaving a door cracked open to ensure constant airflow.
Lastly, you can have this at your camp to keep you warm instead of setting a campfire that may burn out at some point during the night. It is also less hazardous than a campfire, as it is unlikely that stray sparks from it may catch on an errant leaf and…
