The headlamp is a must for sure. My personal must-have gadget for my van is my HomeFi hotspot. I work remotely, so I need reliable internet. It's been super useful. I live in the US and it works all over the country here. Thanks for the video, enjoyed it!
🤞🏼 you never need to use the fire extinguisher, but with powder you should give it a regular shake to make sure the contents haven’t settled while travelling
Great bit of info - thank you!
Love the array of handy 'Must Haves' Good old Amazon. I think you need a new umbrella now too 🤣! Those bowls that fold down flat are marvelous space saver. So much available these days to make caravaning/camping easier - more comfortable and less stressful. Good Gadget Video. 👌🇳🇱🙋♀🥝
Yes that umbrella is beyond the point of repair! haha
Thanks for watching!
Great stuff, thanks for sharing
Our pleasure!
A great selection. Like the head light. We have a similar thing for walking our two.... yes to the fire extinguisher. A MUST HAVE. also the first aid box. We have one for the dogs too.....
Hand's torches are the way forward! thanks for watching!
Interesting gadgets , thank you for sharing 😊
@@CaravanningwiththeMrs thanks guys!
Thank for sharing, Love the battery storage. I went straight on to Amazon and orderd 😀
@@CaravanEscapades101 haha. I’m easily led too 🤣
Love the hotplate, that looks really useful and who knew you could make an omelette with a clutch bag, lol.
@@helenandjohnsadventures that made me laugh!
Nice video you all. I love gadgets. Found some I am interested in.
@@CampsiteCruising awesome!!
Hi Lang and Sara,
Have probably watched 20 of these show and tell videos before and still watch new ones as I find them on UA-cam and every time I discover one or two things I haven't seen before so awesome.
Thanks for sharing guys. A new subscriber.
Thank you! And thanks for subscribing!!
Great video as usual, we use the TomTom sat nav, my husband is a HGV driver so uses this for work also
It’s great as you can put the size of the outfit and it has nice clear instructions
Great thank you! Definitely got some to choose from now!
Hi love the video, the satnav I yse for the caravan is Sygic Truck and Caravan, I've used it in this country and France and it's never let me down. It gives you the ability to enter all your units info.
Awesome thank you!
Wow that’s a lot of gadgets, we do have a few of them at the caravan and some in the camper. You seem to be an Amazon junkie like me.great video and I think I need one of those fans 😊
It’s John Lewis or Waitrose… was £12 when I bought it!
Ah a spider catcher maybe we should have done the vlog together I could have supplied the spider 😂. Great video
Haha!!
Hi mate
I use the falcon wireless rear view camera find it spot on and as it’s wireless it’s so simple to work, and not that expensive. You know it’s decent from them .
As for sat nav we have the aguri version not cheap but it is I would say the best on the market !! . Had to bite the bullet and buy it, used the car sat nav all the time . Once it took us down a few tight roads on one or two occasions and and I mean tight ! And with an 8ft caravan a bit stressful!!
Great vlogs 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome, thanks. Will look into those!
And thank you!
Rex Sat Nav, we have been using for years the Avtex Tourer. It’s based on a Garmin. It’s not the cheapest, you can add all your dimensions, has full european coverage and has all the CMHC @ ACSI sites already installed. Loads of other features as well.
Great thank you!
Can't beat Amazon for gadgets, I knew this months videos would be dangerous for me as i love a gadget. I can't recommend our Aguri sat nav, not the cheapest out there but does the job pretty well.
I like to try and support the dealers, but the overcharge so we go to amazon 9 times out of 10!
Hi great video and some good ideas there.
For satnav advice I use avtex tourer3 by garmin, great device that allows you to put your dimensions in and works well for me.
I’ve also been looking at reversing cameras but can’t decide whether to buy one or which one, so for now I’m using GoPro. I stick a 3m pad on the roof of the van and attach the camera by reaching through the rear skylight also trailing a cable through to keep it charged. Hope this helps
That’s great, thank you!
Wow. So many gadgets. You must be about 100kg over your payload 😂 seriously though will be investigating some of these on Amazon
Took the van to two separate weigh bridges! We don’t keep much else in the van to be honest! Clothes, chairs, awning etc. all go in the car! How ever I doubt this will be the end of my collection! 🤣
@@LangSara ha. I was only joking but I’d imagine they all add up. Always need more gadgets 😀
@@heyholetstow I tell everyone about weight, but I don’t think a lot of people worry about it 😬
Personally, I would go tom-tom for the satnav used one for years in the truck and it’s never let me down I don’t personally use one when towing a caravan so you would have to look at the difference models you could get for a caravan. I know my truck one does let me put in height weight and width also you can get lifetime traffic which can come in handy especially for road closures. Then it will send you down the correct road unlike Google Maps when there’s a road closure hello single track Road 😮
As for reversing camera I use the wife it’s cheaper 😂
Thank for you advice guys! Hope the channel is going well!
Hi could you give me the name of the big torch you shown as I'm interested in buying it. Cheers 😊
Relybo Torches LED Super Bright Rechargeable, Flashlight 30000 Lumens XHM88 Torches Battery Powered, Led Torch Rechargeable, Powerful Torch Flash Light for Dog Walking Hiking Camping Emergency Gift
This is the description on Amazon. Says one left in stock!
@@LangSara thanks for the reply
What was the gun thing ? Was it a pressure washer ? How does that work ? ..i looked for the links below😪
Hey, which gun thing do you mean? What part of the video was it in?
As an advanced driving instructor my question to you is why do you want a reversing camera. Is it to see cars as you are driving I sort of get that but good mirrors and you both looking every bend will tell you or are you wanting this to reverse on a pitch in this case DON’T pull up just past your pitch and use your motor mover. Why am I telling you this because 51% of all insurance claims are people reversing there caravan. A camera will not show both sides of your caravan so accident still happen also if the passenger is directing you they must never stand behind or within 2 heights of the caravan wall it is amazing how may people get hurt doing this. Any doubt ask the next warden you see and get information from your caravan insurance. Remove 51% of all claims and it is so simple. Plus you pay a fortune for a motor mover so use it.
How ever there are cameras that are wireless the biggest problem is mounting the camera which means holes in the caravan if you can reduce that problem all the better.
I have caravanned for over 30 years back in the day when we pushed our caravans onto a pitch.
The other advantage to motor over use is the grass and not damaging it plus your clutch on the car.
Wishing you both well and many happy and safe towing years.
James
Thank you very much for the advice! That is definitely useful info. I nearly always use the motor mover, unless I am on a pitch in a field with no trees etc.
I guess the main reason for wanting one, is for pulling back into the slow lane of a motorway when overtaking lorries etc. I always leave way to much space just to be safe.
Boring
@@Steve.Mandy64 will try harder next time!
