 The perfect ladder for accessing the Ecamper from outside, a roof rack or hard to reach cargo box. The one small issue we have with the design is the flat rungs. Once leaned over for use, your feet land on the edge of each step vs a flat surface. We have the 6.9 foot version and it’s perfect the perfect height for the Ecamper. Taller versions are available if you need to get higher.


Add this to your ladder order to prevent it from scratching your Element or whatever you lean it against. This is an expensive solution, but the fit and finish was well worth the purchase for us.


Convenient & compact leveling blocks that connect like Legos. If you are sleeping in a vehicle you should defiantly own these.


We don’t use this often, but are happy to have it when we need it. There are a few places that require travel toilets to camp in the back country. This is our go to model for ease of use, compact size travel size and sturdy constitutions (claimed weight limit of 500lbs).


We prefer these “toilet” bags compared to the Cleanwaste brand. They are a bit cheaper and the second bag is already attached to the inner bag. This makes these easier and cleaner to use.


This is our axe of choice for camping. Made in America out of a single piece of steel. The rubber handle feels great and reduces  impact vibration.


This inexpensive digital indoor temperature & humidity monitor will keep track of you interior highs & lows.


On the subject of humidity, this battery free inexpensive device will help pull unwanted moisture from the air in your home on the road. It uses a renewable silica gel, when they turn green (approximately 2-4 weeks of use), plug it into a wall outlet for 10hrs & the silica will turn back to orange & is ready to use again. Power is not used or consumed while in use, power is only required to “dehumidify” silica gel for reuse.


The perfect tie down kit, easy to adjust, holds tight & the reflective nylon cord is highly visible at night. Once you use a Figure 9 you'll never use anything else.


All the features of the Figure 9 with the added bonus of a carabiner clip, available in two sizes. We use these mostly with a tarp, connecting the clip to a grommet, but you'll find endless uses for them.


Reduce, reuse, recycle! This handy tool let's you safely punch holes in Isobutane canisters, which allows you to recycle it. Works with JetBoil Jetpower & certain other brands of butane fuel canisters. Do it right- CrunchIt™ !
