MPowerd Luci Outdoor 2.0

Luci v2.0 solar-powered LED light is a compact, lightweight, super bright, and versatile option that provides lantern-like light. Charges up easily. Nothing fancy...just a great idea. Here's another review of an MPowered Luci product...that I've been meaning to add. Item was brought to my attention by a friend that had one and recommended it as we were preparing for a private raft trip down the Grand Canyon this spring. It was a nice lantern-like light that provided general lighting, and was a good… Full review

MPowerd Luci Connect

This latest arrival from MPOWERD is smart, solar, inflatable, waterproof, durable, and you can choose from colors, brightness, and scheduling all off your mobile device! This is a VERY bright light. It allows for the latest IOS and Android devices to control it. The colors appear to be limitless. It is the first remote control light of its kind. It still lives up to the brand's durability and beautiful design. This is basically a Philips Hue on the run—oh and it's waterproof! Full review

SPOT Personal Tracker

This company sucks. I have lost two trackers and they cannot trace them. Imagine that, a tracker that you cannot track Full review

Nikon AW100

Nikon Coolpix AW110. Tough proof, great image quality and video. Small. When I'm out for a hike or xc ski even in the bitter cold, this sweetie just runs. Bought to vblog my goal of doing the End to End backpack trip on Vermont's Long Tail. Though not yet done, my 110AW is terrific on winter hikes, snowshoeing, and xcountry skiing outings. Super handy and fits in my shirt pocket, or slip it inside my hardshell to keep the battery warm. I'm a guy with thick fingers so accessing the function buttons… Full review

Nikon 1 AW1

A trail-proof camera to capture your off-grid moments. The Nikon AW1 is a camera well suited to adventures. It's drop proof, bump proof, dirt proof, freeze proof, and fully waterproof down to 49 feet just as it is without the need for a bulky housing. So be it hiking, climbing, diving, kayaking... you name it, this little camera is up to the challenge of capturing your experience to share with others. I'm an avid kayaker and amateur photographer. Though I love my big expensive DSLR, for me it's… Full review

BioLite Headlamp 330

Thin, light, balanced, rechargeable, bounce-free—put the Headlamp 330 on the buy-list. The technology is advanced enough that rechargeable headlamps are finally a good deal. You can't get this much light in this small of a package anyplace else so far. Remember when a 90-lumen headlamp was the best thing ever? Say hello to 330! Winter is a time when runners have to run in the dark to get their miles in. Short days mean you need a headlamp. Most flashlights and headlamps are little more than a… Full review

Casio Pro Trek PRG-300CM

Casio Pro Trek PRG-300CM—For what it costs and the superb durability you get from it, it is a no-brainer for a beginner and casual user. First of all, I am not a professional trail runner nor an avid trekking or hiking goer. Overall I am an outdoor enthusiast and that has from time to time the chance to go to the beach, mountains, or project sites. For all these duties, and more, this watch is more than capable. In a world where the summit is for the SUUNTOs and TISSOT T-Time (in terms of technology… Full review

Eddie Bauer Solar Power Bank 6000mAh

After 18 months I noticed the cases splitting on all three of these power banks I bought. The Li-ion battery failed and started to swell, causing the cases to crack open. I got these for gifts. It was a waste of money.  Full review
