These Lightcup drinking vessels feature a solar or dynamo-powered LED lamp fixed underneath the lid that can be used as a flashlight or a warning signal (white or red light settings) when camping, hiking, etc. It’s an interesting idea, but it would be even more helpful if it included a UV light setting to sanitize nasty river water. The dynamo version is pictured after the break.

Keep your drinks cool and your food warm. It’s the ultimate camping accessory for your more civilized  adventurer. I don’t own one, but I can give you a piece of advice: give that grill plenty of time to cool off before you pack it up to go because “only you can prevent forest fires”.

Markill Spider Stove

Nothing like a hot meal when camping, and the Markill Spider Stove aims to give you that experience. The unit is fairly light and compact for carrying deep into the woods, and the wide base the extended legs give it add stability. Of course the downside is that you also have to lug in fuel to burn. That sort of defeats the purpose of the lightweight stove. There is no doubt that your need for freshly cooked bacon will cost you in some way.
