Nemo Equipment 3-Person Losi Pawprint Review

Nemo Equipment 3-Person Losi Pawprint
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am sure some people are wondering what this is and why the heck they should buy it. This product snaps inside the tent to create a floor that is soft and easy to clean. It is made of a microfiber type of material. It folds up very small, is lightweight and easy to pack.
The Pawprint is really great if you dogs because it protects the floor from their paws and gives them a more comfortable place to sleep which is probably the intended use. I don't have dogs currently but I use this floor every time I camp because it makes cleaning out the tent a breeze. I just unsnap the Pawprint before breakdown and shake it out. The floor of the actual tent stays completely clean. It is washable when necessary. For summertime camping you can use this as a sheet below you and then just use a sheet and blanket on top of you.
I think it is worth the money and a cool addition to the Losi 3P Tent.

Update 10/15/2009: This has held up well for many camping trips and several machine washings.

Product Description:
The Losi Pawprint is a removable liner designed for the inside of your Losi three-person tent. Not only does it protect your tent floor from boots or paws--a must when camping in dusty or muddy conditions--but it also seriously boosts the comfort level. The Pawprint is made of a machine-washable, brushed fabric that's soft to the touch. Even better, the lining is extremely versatile, with a design that sits on top of your sleeping pads to keep them in place. Depending on the conditions, you might even be able to save some weight by packing a lighter sleeping bag or blanket, as the Pawprint will keep you comfortable and cozy. The liner weighs 1.3 pounds and packs easily.
About NEMO
NEMO Equipment, Inc. is a small company located in southern New Hampshire with a passion for design and innovation. The company was founded in 2002 by Cam Brensinger, who had been working with a joint team at NASA and MIT to design the next generation of spacesuits. Cam is a committed rock and ice climber with a talent for inventing new technology.
After several years of development behind closed doors in their studio in New Hampshire, NEMO unveiled its first line of tents and shelters in 2005. This product line introduced several patent pending technologies including NEMO's AirSupported Technology. AST is a system of low-pressure inflatable ribs and lightweight pumps which replace the aluminum poles traditionally used in tents. These inflatable ribs are stronger than standard aluminum poles, faster and easier to set up, easier to repair, and more compact.
NEMO's bold steps forward in tent and shelter design earned the company much attention and accolades from the start. In 2005, one of their AirSupported tents was named among the 100 best inventions of the year by TIME and Popular Science magazines. That same year, the company also won the highest award for innovation in the outdoor sporting goods industry, the ISPO BrandNew award in Munich, Germany. In each subsequent year since 2005, NEMO has added new technology to its line and continued to refine their designs. NEMO tents have since won awards and recognition from Rock & Ice, Climbing, Backpacker and many other magazines. The company has a strong team of ambassadors, including many elite mountaineers and adventure racers. NEMO tents have been to every corner of the planet and are used, not only by passionate outdoor adventurers, but also by elite US Special Forces.

Kelty TripTease Lightline Review

Kelty TripTease Lightline
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Kelty triptease lightline cord is gold in color, about 3/32" diam., and is labeled as 1 oz for 50 feet, braided nylon, labeled with 188 pound break strength (didn't test), with lifetime warranty, contains a single reflective thread sewn in a X pattern, 4 Xs per inch of cord.Reflectivity with a flashlight is okay and functional.Note that the Viper Equinox is much better for reflectivity.

Viper Equinox is a competitor sold by Campmor and others at much lower price than Kelty.It is also gold color, a little larger at 1/8" diam., has 3M reflective thread with 2 threads per X pattern, 4 Xs per 1.5 inches of cord.It is also braided nylon, model ELW401.It is about twice as reflective as Kelty.Also sold in 50 foot pieces.

Another option is REI's blue,green, and white cord, that is braided, 1/8" diameter, single reflective cord sewn in a spiral dash with about 4 lines per 1.25 inch of cord. It has about the same reflectivity as the Kelty cord, but it also adds a glow in the dark feature that actually works for several minutes after a flashlight hits it. The glow in the dark white cords are a series of 4 threads together with 3 of the sets per inch of cord.Basically, the glow cords are about 75% of what you see on a cross section and the reflective cords are about 5%. This cord is about the same cost as Kelty.One additional advantage is that it is sold by the foot, so you can get a small piece or a really long piece.

Coleman Cool Zephyr Window Fan Review

Coleman Cool Zephyr Window Fan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Yes, the fan can be a little loud... but I LIKE that feature.When you're bike riding across the state of Iowa with 10,000 of your closest friends the fan can drown out all the little noises of your neighbors in their tents.But most importantly, it will keep you cool in the late July Iowa weather.

One of the best features of this fan over others like it, is that the battery pack plugs into the fan.When you break camp for the night you just unplug the battery pack and store it in your bags.With other fans the batteries remain in the fan and it is too easy for the switch to get bumped during travel leaving you with dead batteries at your next campsite.

A must have for your tent.

ShelterLogic 15" Auger Anchor 40' Rope, 4 Pieces Review

ShelterLogic 15' Auger Anchor 40' Rope, 4 Pieces
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These are very heavy duty construction, more than I expected.A bit difficult to get into hard ground (you might try a soak-and-dry cycle or two before augering them in).

Good stuff.Good for semi-permanent anchoring.

One thing though--you will need some s-hooks (hardware store) to make it easy to attach pre-tied cord.The eyes on the end of this unit are welded shut, and they are so heavy that you couldn't bend them anyway to slip a rope into the eye.

Ground Hog Stake Single by MSR Review

Ground Hog Stake Single by MSR
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We are not serious campers - car camp in a State Park 1 or 2 weekends a year. Recently purchased these stakes and a tent from Amazon. The first time we used these, the park required us to pitch our tents on tent 'pads' - essentially hard packed gravel that is used for either parking your vehicle or pitching your tent. These stakes went into the hard packed ground like a hot knife through butter. Four other families in our party had either standard issue plastic stakes or the typical coat hangar thin steel stakes. They worked up a sweat trying to get their stakes to make any headway through the hardpack. A couple of them ended up bending and/or breaking stakes and ultimately left a couple corners unsecured. I was VERY happy with my small investment in these sweet stakes. If you are a serious camper and could be out in all kinds of ground terrain and high winds - I gotta believe you are going to want these. If you are a car camper and would rather get your tent set up and have a cold one while your buddies are cussing out their cheap stakes - you wanna have these too!
