Anybody have one of these this company is heavily into car electronic accessories. I have their battery jumpstart system, which is pretty cool and I have a dash cam mirror on order looking at the refrigerators and the pricing is very reasonable for like a 48 quart one it’s about 450.$ I know I could buy a dometic or arb and easily work out twice as much so just curious if anybody has one what do they think ..read more

Converting my Kia Soul for camping. I can't imagine hanging large amounts of food in trees every night. I've done that while backpacking, but a 7-day trip involves a lot of food. How do others handle this ..read more

I want to keep some water containers in the front of my truck bed full time. Something low and flat that won't tumble all over the place. Can handle freezing. I was reading up on water bricks, then found reviews saying aqua bricks are better. But both are years old in coverage online. Maybe there's something newer? Anywhere from 2-5 gallons would be good, it's really for survival situations and going camping ..read more

JICYDK, Cabelas has a new line of fairly priced bushcraft line that consists of a machete, large knife, small knife and a hatchet, all made from 5160 spring steel, which I absolutely love. Fairly priced but once sharpened, holds its edge really well.
I picked up the machete. Grind was slightly off center but I fixed that and is now hair popping sharp. I bought it for a truck carry
and camping. Check them out.

I have been using a 12 volt ICECO VL60 chest fridge/freezer 24/7 for the last three years and it has worked perfectly. I’m thinking about buying the larger ICECO VL90 chest fridge/freezer for my box truck to camper conversion build.
Since I’ll have a lot more room in the box truck I would like to SUPER INSULATE the outside of the VL90 in a way that I will still be able to pull it out on slides and easily access the fridge and freezer from the top.
I was thinking of possibly using Velcro to...

Recently I discovered Stacktech from Tough Built. The Stacktech system was originally designed and marketed as a stackable tool storage system similar to other popular brands like Milwauke Packout. I saw a video about someone using the Packout system as a camp kitchen and then I came across the Stacktech line. I'm surprised it hasn't been posted here on EP. As of now some items are difficult to find due to them only being available at Lowe's. The company is working to acquire new...

Heya Folks,
Been lurking around here for awhile, and have a sort of different question off my normal. Looking to buy my kiddo (22yo) a tent, as he is looking to go out "Adventuring" more.
I have not bought a tent in a good 10 years....and unfortunately alot of reviews on the internet are from people who set it up in their back yard and sprayed water over it once.
So, I am looking for something that is Quicker to setup (So it is not a chore for him), Durable (So it does not need to be...

Hey peeps,
I ordered some hard korr lights for my truck like 2 years ago, been trying to get some additional parts for close to a year at this point and haven't received any support from them. I've tried contacting them via email, FB, and two of their instagram accounts (one of which has since been deleted). I sent one final email trying to get a DC power plug and splitter, but I don't have high hopes.
I'm curious what other recommendations people have for lighting that offers a...

I have a Goose Gear Camp Kitchen 2.3 which has a max fridge size of 15w x 25d x 20h.
I currently have a Dometic CFX3 35, single zone, it has been in the Jeep and on for a few years now, power is from my off grid 100Ah LiFePO4 power kit. Here are some picks on RevKit.
I need an higher capacity fridge. Any suggestions? My searching hasn’t turned up a higher capacity fridge that’ll fit. Notice the room above the current fridge.
TIA
