Practical accessories and assorted goods designed to make life easier and more enjoyable for RVers.

Hose Grip

J Wright Concepts Solid Hose-GripWhen you’re working with a power hose winder or inside a water cabinet with tight clearance, consider J Wright Concepts’ new Solid Hose-Grip. It measures just 3 inches long — and doesn’t flex. The main body is made of machined, hard-anodized aluminum. Its 1-inch hex makes it easy to hold when attaching it to a hose or water connection. Price is $38.99.

Polarized Sunglasses

Redfin Sanibel polarized sunglassesIt can be hard to find sunglasses that fit properly. If they are too tight, you might get a headache. In particular, folks with a larger build may have difficulty with the one-size-fits-all frames designed by many manufacturers. Sanibel sunglasses from Redfin feature an Italian sport frame built for larger faces. These frames have stainless-steel hinges, no-slip rubber nosepieces, and under-the-cap ear stems. The fully polarized lenses — manufactured by Carl Zeiss Vision — eliminate glare and feature a special moisture-wicking coating with an anti-scratch protectant to resist abrasion. It’s almost as though they were built for the beach! The price is $229.00.

RV Patio Mats

Lippert All Weather RV Patio MatSpruce up your campsite with the All Weather RV Patio Mat from Lippert. The mats are made from 100 percent polypropylene fabric, which makes them mold- and mildew-resistant. You don’t need to worry about the colors fading due to UV rays — they’re resistant to that, too. Integrated corner loops allow the mat to be staked to the ground on super windy days. If the mat gets dirty, simply hose it down with a pressure washer or garden hose. Many sizes and colors are available; every mat has a reversible design, allowing for even more variety. A storage bag is provided. Prices start at $39.95.

High-Lumen Flashlight

Torchy 2K from Nebo FlashlightsFlashlights should be on everyone’s camping checklist. Most smartphones nowadays have built-in flashlights, but they are generally small and, in some cases, fairly dim (usually around 40 to 50 lumens). Torchy 2k, on the other hand, features a powerful 2,000-lumen turbo mode, along with normal modes that range from 35 to 1,000 lumens. This is the perfect everyday-carry flashlight, especially with how it is IPX6 water resistant, has a removable steel belt clip, incorporates a magnetic base, is made from anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, and is rechargeable (phew). The charging time, depending on the USB port’s output, is three to five hours. Price is $49.99.

Magnetic Barbecue Tool Set

Connect-It Magnetic BBQ Tool SetHaving too many grill utensils and not knowing where they are stored when you decide to barbecue is a common problem. The Connect-it Magnetic BBQ Tool Set from the Proud Grill Company provides a solution for this by whittling down the number of grill-side tools you need to two, and they are easy to store. This unique tool set has magnetic handles that connect so they can be used together or separately, operating as a spatula, a fork, tongs, and a server; they simply nest on top of each other for storage or, because of their magnetic properties, you can stick them to the side shelf of most barbecues, smokers, and ceramic grills. The Proud Grill Connect-It Magnetic Tool Set is sold online and at various retailers. Price is $49.99.
