Camper essential equipment to carry

[@ryangolds]

Got the Kuma with the puck in my T6. It's great 80% of the time. I still have problems in some locations. Mainly the coast. I guess that's more the service providers. I use my van as a remote office sometime and have a starlink mini that I just can't fault. But having the permanent WiFi in the van is tops.

Yeah I think for an office starlink is needed but for casual like me it’s a cost I would want to pay. EE usually seems the best as a service provider. I’ll have a play and a test once it’s in and I’m using the van 👍

Definitely agree that a battery booster box and a 12v tyre inflator are essentials to carry, have both in my campervan. I like the look of the Flextail shower kit, very neat, I have a12v corded one, never used as its a bit of a pain with the cord length. I have a couple of Flextail Tiny pumps, they are great, one pumps up small inflatables, the other came as a set with some large vacuum bags for clothes/bedding etc - great for packing more into a campervan with limited space - I also got some re-usable vacuum food bags to use with it too, great for meal prepping before you go, as you can get heaps more in the fridge/freezer in the vacuum bags than in tubs etc. Plus you can boil in the bag to heat up the contents while you cook some veg or pasta to go with it too.

Yeah flextail do some good little camping bits don’t they.

Varied items that I would agree are fun or useful. Carry some tiny binoculars but always forget when parked with view. Those 10x50s look compact and light weight compared to the Swift 10x50s I inherited from dad years ago. mind they were his prize possession in the late 70s lol I recall Tmobile/EE promoting 12yrs ago sim units for camping yet the phones had no service lol Thanks for sharing Lee 😺👍

No problem. I remember those big ones too. Things have changed nowadays 😁 I was surprised how compact they are now!

The only good binoculars are the ones you have with you. I’ve got cheap 8x42 binoculars in my vehicles, and some 10x50s that I always forget and leave in the house. I’ve recently bought a 3x42 monocular in the hope that it will be useful for watching meteor showers.

I do like having some binoculars in the van now. So many times before when I wish I had some.

Flex shower is ok, but to big. It would be great if it would be possible to put it into the water tank.

[@SpyderLEE]

Yeah you have to be picky what you want to put it in.
