In our travels around the United States the majority of the time you would find us inside of an RV park. We loved staying inside RV parks because they had all the creature comforts of home that we were used to like running water, electricity and cable. However there were a few times where the palace we wanted to visit didn’t have an RV park close. For us this meant Boondocking.
Boondocking is amazing! You are able to typically park far away from all other people and literally have your own slice of heaven. But you are 100% responsible for making sure you don’t use more power than your solar panels produce and you can’t run out of water.When we visited the Grand Canyon we were able to find an amazing spot for the week. But as the week went on, I noticed our water tank going down… down… down… I can actually remember yelling like a mad woman at a kid for leaving the water running while they brushed their teeth. The thought of running out of water, even knowing a gas station wasn’t too far away was making me panic!
Fortunately for me, my husband decided to grab some 5 gallon jugs and fill us up on day 5, but the entire experience made me realize how grateful I was to have access to clean water at all times! Which brings me to my new favorite outdoor gear brand- EcoSurvivor! EcoSurvivor products are durable and kid tough, but they also save lives every time I make a purchase!
Say whaaaaat?! How could me buying outdoor gear save lives? Well with every purchase from EcoSurvivor, 50% of the net proceeds are donated to Water4 (a foundation built on the hope to restore the world water crisis). Water4 is dedicated to eradicating the global water crisis. They are a nonprofit founded in 2008 with the goal of eradicating the world water crisis through faith, entrepreneurship, education and technology. Currently active in 16 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and South America, Water4 works through the capacity, strength and greatness of ordinary people in developing nations to bring about lasting economic, social and spiritual change through sustained access to safe water. Everyone deserves water. Yet every day millions of people (mostly children and women) have to walk miles and miles to find clean water. Often only to find dirty water from contaminated ponds and watering holes. They spend hours carrying it back to their families to drink. With it they bring sickness that often results in death.It’s a global crisis. The good news is it’s a crisis with a solution. While the entire crisis can’t be solved in a day, you can take action today and make a difference. Every contribution counts as we work together to change lives and save lives by making the power of water available to all. The world water crisis impacts nearly 1 billion people and causes over 3 million preventable deaths each year. Your EcoSurvivor purchase can help make this crisis become history.
EcoSurvivor sells many amazing outdoor tech accessories including rugged LED lanterns, water-resistant battery packs, Bluetooth speakers and more durable tech accessories. I’ve been using and loving the EcoSurvivor Camo Lantern by Jasco () for a few weeks now and it’s really pretty awesome.Built for the adventure seeker as well as the everyday consumer, this dual-purpose lantern lights up the dark with 3 different light levels making this the perfect companion in any situation: emergency, camping, in the home.I love that I can hand it to the kids and not worry about them breaking it because it’s made tough to withstand so many things. It’s been dropped more times than I can count, yet keeps on shining when we need it the most!We can place it almost anywhere we need it, it has a nifty carabiner handle that we can hook on things. When camping, it hooks on the top cross supports of our tent and stays on all night long (up to 180 hours!)
Features Include:
- Sand, dust, water and impact resistant
- Up to 200 hours of battery life when on low
- High, medium and low settings
- A locking carabiner handle
- Rugged and weather resistant
- Provides 360° light
- Lifetime LED warranty
And remember, not only does the purchase of an EcoSurvivor LED Lantern provide 360 degrees of bright light and portable power you can depend on, but it also helps provide clean drinking water to people around the world.
I have been an avid fan of EcoSurvivor products since I first learned about them. They are one of the most innovative companies out there that create incredible and stylish products with a cause in mind. Their mission is to help reduce waste and make our world a better place by creating durable, yet sustainable gear for outdoor enthusiasts who want to do good while they explore the great outdoors.
