RVers Enjoy the Pleasure of a Campfire Without the Hassle

RVers enjoy sitting around a campfire. There’s something alluring about the glow of coals and the dancing fingers of fire on the logs that entices us. Thoughts of toasted marshmallows and the unforgettable taste of s’mores draw us to the campfire. Unfortunately, there’s a dark side to campfires, clothes that smell like smoke, the need to gather wood, light it, put it out and then clean up the ashes. Now you can have a campfire without all the negative side effects. CAMCO’s newest addition to their line of RV products is the Little Red Campfire. This unit is small and portable with an 8 foot hose that attaches to a propane bottle. The Little Red Campfire will provide many hours of family enjoyment. Available wherever CAMCO products are sold.

Is a Solar Powered RV Vent in Your Future?

Venting your RV during storage is now a cinch with SunVent. This solar powered vent extracts 680 cubic feet of air per hour. My friend Richard Schramm installed one of these on his Big Foot travel trailer to vent the refrigerator. He says, “I mounted one of these on the vent above my refer to pull more air up across the coils. I left room to mount a second one and I think I am going to go ahead and add it. The only thing is I may need to add an extension tube to reach further into the cavity to get a better draw on the air to pull it upward. Not many moving parts and it was here in a couple of days even when I ordered it ground delivery.” You can read more about it here: Sun Vent Jim Twamley

New Flat Wire Great for RV 12 Volt Applications

This flat speaker wire can also be used for 12 volt RV applications like an alarm system or low voltage lighting, Oh, it can also power your speakers. It has peel-and-stick backing and is only 1mm thick (that’s not M&M’s thick but millimeters thick). They say you can paint or wallpaper over it. You can also run this wire under the carpet without the noticible buldge you get with other types of wire. Available in 16 foot and 25 foot bubble packs or 100' bulk rolls.
