Cheap Camping Gear

[Dimples]

So while browsing today I found that one of my online suppliers is carrying outdoors knock off gear that is pretty interesting. If anyone is looking for a Cheap Y E T I like cooler or a small camp stove. I buy a ton of stuff from them for work and the quality has always been good.

Cool, I ordered a chair, the collapsible bucket and 2 lanterns. I will probably do a review on them after the Feb ROTM

I got the lantern as well, 400 lumens for less than $15? Also picked up the jetboil like stove and the tactical backpack...one can never have enough packs.

 

[Dimples]

let me know how you like the pack. I need a new one

No worries. Always on the hunt for a bargain.

Quick review:

Camping chair seems really well made and has earned my 13 year old son's seal of approval. It also survived said 13 year old for 3 days of hard use.

The lanterns seemed to impress people with how bright they were. They use a high density led strip instead of individual leds and have a nice light dispersal.

So I just ordered the 1 liter cooking system to compare it to my jet boil. Will do a side by side comparison and see how it holds up

Well here is a side shot of the jetboil vs monoprice. The monoprice is 1/4 inch shorter and 3/4 inch wider. He monoprice also looks to have a better wind block.

The jetboil fits inside of the monoprice cup

A little easier to clean I should think.
