5 Amazing Products from Overland Expo PNW
Overland Expo is known for bringing amazing education and industry leading product vendors to spectacular locations. At this year’s Overland Expo Pacific Northwest, 5 innovative products stood out above all others.
Guzzle H2O - Stream - Portable Water Filtration & Purification System
Guzzle H2O is the industry leader for portable water purification systems and the Stream is a prime example of why they are so popular. This small unit comes inside a durable carry case and is roughly the size of a first aid kit. It contains a built in pump that allows you to draw water from any source into your container at roughly .75 gallons per minute. The Stream; however, is much more than a simple pump. It has a 0.5 micron Activated Carbon Block Filter which is highly effective at reducing sediment, chlorine taste and odor, VOCs, NSF 41 emerging contaminants, lead, mercury, and other chemical contaminants. Additionally, it has LED UV-C purification which is 3rd party tested to inactivate 99.99% of bacterial, protozoa, and viruses. MSRP = $995.
Rockpot – Rockpot Mini
The Rockpot (a clever name twist on Crock Pot) is a portable cooking system that requires no electricity or propane. The heating source is a cooking stone that you simply set in your campfire for 20 minutes. Place the hot stone inside the unit, then fill the cooking pot with your raw food and set it on top of the stone. Close the lid and place it in your vehicle and your meal will cook while you are driving to your next campsite. Rockpot heats your food for up to 10 hours so that once your camp is setup, your dinner is ready. MSRP = $199.99.
Anymakka – Hammock Stand
Anymakka has created a portable hammock stand designed to be setup in seconds. Once opened you can connect a standard sized hammock for use as a chair and/or bed. It comes with a handy carry case which is roughly the size of a small pop up tent. It weighs less than 25 pounds and holds more than 500 pounds. MSRP = $259.
Primoworkz – Tailgate Bag
Primoworkz has come up with a clever way of storing gear, trash, firewood or even wet clothes. Their tailgate bag is made of a durable PVC material with drain holes in the bottom. It has an extremely soft padded back designed to protect the paint on your tailgate from scratches. 4 clips attach it in a way that allows the tailgate to be opened and closed without removing the bag. Releasing 2 of the clips allows the bag to hang so that it can be accessed with the tailgate open. MSRP = $260.
Daylodge – Camp Kitchen
Daylodge has created a camp kitchen in a durable carrying case. At first glance it appears to be a back pack; however, this innovative unit is designed to mount to your vehicle. Once attached, the front wall opens to reveal a cutting table, a utensil organization panel and a bottle and cup panel. Don’t want to use it as a kitchen, no worries, Daylodge repurposes them to be everything from a portable workstation for your laptop, a recovery bag for tools and gear or even an after hours bag which acts as a minibar. MSRP = $350.
