Power up your tent with Campmor

by Sherry on June 27th, 2008

Eureka tent

Where was this tent when I was packing this time a week ago for a four day getaway into the woods with my family?! Campmor offers up the Eureka N!ergy 9 tent which will sleep up to five people (though I always find one less person than the maximum is best for personal space). It comes with a built in energy system which give you three electrical outlets. You can use them to power up lights, a stereo, laptop, whatever you need.

Now as a big fan of getting away from it all once in awhile, I’m not much into the thought of using a laptop in a tent - I left mine at home and survived just fine. However, as a mother of two young kids, being able to have a small light plugged in would be handy indeed. We used some little lamps, but it would be nice to save the batteries for those inevitable middle-of-the-night bathroom trips and have an overhead lamp inside the tent for getting everyone bundled into their pajamas and sleeping bags.

I’d also be into a small stereo. I don’t blast music lest I disturb others but it’s nice to have a little soft music while you’re cooking over a fire.

It’s actually quite reasonably priced at only $149.90.

    Now that’s pretty cool! And i thought our tent having a little net at the top of the dome to hold a flashlight was cutting edge :D
