Bad thing that half of this crap is just useless. This solar-charger-thingy produces 40W at peak(you need direct sunlight in the summer while pointing it at the sun, that's enough to charge your phone, but not more. (I find it hilarious they went to the effort of putting 110V sockets there, just in case someone has a 0. 2A device to power.
And don't get me started on this magical -burn sticks to charge your phone- shit. Okay, the principle is used by NASA, but only to power tiny circuits. And for the BBQ part? You most definitely can cook on that, as long as you don't mind waisting several hours of your life cooking on a tiny and rather cold fire.
Just use a normal camping stove and get a few backup batterys, saves you space, money and frustration.

Hey guys, thanks for watching. For what it's worth, it's rare that I go camping this way. Typically, I prefer to throw some light gear into a pack and get into the backcountry. We covered most of my favorite stuff for that in our -Pack for the Apocalypse- video. Anyway, for this one we wanted it to be different. This is the heavier, larger, more expensive stuff for car campers (or people going to Burning Man, which is what I originally put this setup together for. This kind of setup may not be to your taste, but y'know, everybody has a starting point in the outdoors, and this is a lot better than not leaving the city at all. Just sayin'. Anyway, thanks again for watching. More videos soon!

Personally, I think the best high-tech gear for camping is no gear at all. That's kinda the whole point of sleeping out in the middle of the woods - to get AWAY from the tech world. But one you didn't mention that I do like is the flashlight that is so hot is can light fires.

that tent has to be a winter tent. three season tents usually have a mesh dome with a rain fly. this is to let all the hot summer heat out of the tent but this thing has the smallest of windows and no mesh roof. probably hot as hell.

Loved this video. Eager to set up our Shift Pod at Strawberry Music Festival this weekend and are about to invest in the air mattress and mini generator you suggested above: ) psyched! You are awesome, thanks.

Another Shiftpod video and again no one is camping, heh, heh. You have nice stuff though; but, no illustration of how well the stuff works under difficult conditions, no review. Shaking my head. Texas

I am sorry but this how most people in the Northern America camp. you forgot the giant busses that look like you've packed your whole house into them, hahaha
Anyway, fun video.

Nice gear, but I feel like it takes away from the camping experience a bit. You'd probably get the same level of comfort in your house; the tent even has air conditioning ffs.
reply

My understand (I'm probably wrong) is that air conditioner is not a -swamp cooler-. they use evaporation. this works well, but just uses -air passing over ice-

One thing I would have added in the Eagles Nest Outfitters (ENO) single hammock with slap straps for relaxation at camp or on the trail.
