These are the camping items that have genuinely improved our teardrop camping setup over multiple trips. We prefer practical, durable gear that packs small, works reliably and earns its place.
⚡ Power & Electrical
Our power system allows us to stay off-grid for extended periods.
Solar Panel + MPPT Controller
A few hours of sunlight can give us around 36 hours of camping power. Our setup uses a 250W Kings solar panel and a Victron MPPT controller. It's simple, reliable and has kept us comfortably off-grid on countless trips.
Battery Monitor
Lets us monitor battery voltage and identify charging issues before they become a problem.
Kings Lithium Jump Starter
Has saved us a few times. We bought ours during a sale and keep it in the tow vehicle.
☕ Coffee
Nothing improves a campsite morning like good coffee.
Conqueco Coffee Maker
Portable espresso machine that produces surprisingly good coffee almost anywhere.
Conqueco Grounds Container
Keeps coffee preparation simple and reduces mess when travelling.
🍳 Cooking & Camp Kitchen
Reliable cooking gear is worth investing in.
Portable Firepit & Grill
Creates a campfire atmosphere while providing a cooking surface.
🏕 Shelter & Comfort
These items dramatically increase comfort and usable living space.
Coleman Aluminium Chairs
Comfortable, lightweight and strong enough for years of use.
🚐 Trailer & Towing
Items that improve safety, security and convenience on the road.

Helps stabilise the trailer and prevent unwanted movement.
🔥 Camp Utilities & Safety
