After today we will begin our trial runs with the trailer, an opportunity to really test out the features, practice parking and towing, and getting any last minute repairs or maintenance completed. From our bridal shower we got many amazing gifts to be used for our trip and I can’t wait to try them out. Technology gets more and more amazing and through careful brainstorming we had registered for two essential pieces of equipment.
- The Brunton Inspire Portable Power Device
- The Brunton Explorer Foldable Solar Panel
These devices will be very helpful in ensuring that we will be able to power our devices in case of emergency or being in rural/backwoods locations where utilities will not be readily available. The Power Device can be charged from either the Solar Panel or also by our vehicle while driving and can charge several devices before needing another recharge. Also, since they are both from REI, should they prove to be unsatisfactory we can return them to try a different device or approach to our power needs. We are attempting to remain as minimal as possible regarding our power/electrical needs to make boon docking as comfortable as possible.
We'll let you know how they perform on our trial adventures!
