Ditch the spray: Apps to repel mosquitoes
This might be worth a shot. I doubt it would do much in heavy insect areas, but it would probably help a little bit.

This is great news! Now I never have to worry about my cell phone being stung by a mosquito anymore!

A Camper’s Dream: Small and Powerful Flash Light Invented
Weight and battery life would be the two things I'd want to know about before I'd get even a little excited about this gadget.

Camper's Dream? What is to stop this little gadget from activating while in your backpack or duffle bag and igniting the contents. That would turn this little dream gadget into a nightmare for sure!

Sonnet - World's Most Advanced Off Grid Communication Device
This device could be useful, but I wonder how much it costs. Not just the device itself, but the monthly fee for the service.

Iceco Fridge Review || Does Iceco Have The Best 12 Volt Fridge/Freezer?

deathvalleyjake: That would be nice to have in a camper, RV, or trailer. The capacity is pretty good for what it is and hopefully it's pretty efficient when it comes to power usage.

sierra_jim: It's hard not to take electronics along with you anywhere you go nowadays. I can't imagine going a full twenty-four hours without interacting in some way with some electronic device, whether it's a watch, GPS, phone, something in my car or house, or even something like a flashlight.
