Camping Season Is Officially Here And This Is Defo The Best Way To Stay Fully Charged
It’s official! The weather has cooled (Jebel Jais just recorded low temps of only 13 degrees – Delightful!) and now the camping season is amongst us.
This is the best season to make the most of everything mother nature has to offer and enjoy some time under a starry night sky!
That being said, being prepared for the trip and stocking up on good camping gear is crucial for the best possible time in the outdoors. Here’s a step-by-step on how to camp, successfully
Here are 5 camping gems you just shouldn’t leave home without – take notes people!
Step 1: Never let your batteries die
Okay so there’s nothing worse than putting a lottt of prep into a trip only for your battery to die and you not being able to take pics in peace. Like if it didn’t go on your socials – did it even happen?! Ahem, cool selfie with a mountainous backdrop.
Don’t worry, cos @Anker_mea is literally a plug and a half 🔌
As in, none of your gadgets can die if you invest in a PowerHouse. You can charge your phones laptops, iPads, cameras, heaters, fridges EVERYTHING alllll at the same time for the whole weekend..
- Portable enough to carry around on a camping trip
-
It has outlets for a whole plug, type C and USB cables as well as a car charger making it capable of charging almost anything.
In the UAE, you can find 3 models of the Anker PowerHouse that has a total output of 200W, 500W and 1,500W.
To put things into context, the smallest PowerHouse can charge: a phone approximately 40-times; a camera approximately 30-times; a mini-fridge for up to 10-hours; a lamp for up to 32-hours; a laptop for 8-times and much more.
Simply put, it lasts a very very long time and can charge anything. In fact, you can last 2 full days in the desert and not worry about how to power or charge your devices or appliances.

I am brand-loyal to Anker batteries and have owned multiple versions, all of which have lasted use for like 3-5 years at least and are still going.

And of course, no camping trip is complete without a movie night, which means you have to check out Nebula projectors
Nebula projectors are compact and very portable. In fact, the Apollo is just 16.6 ounces and it gives people the opportunity to see every detail of your favorite movies, shows, games, and more in remarkable clarity. Nebula projectors come pre-installed with Netflix as well as Android OS, giving people access to over 400,000 movies and episodes on over 7,000 apps so you never run out of content.
For outdoor enthusiasts that are tech-savvy, the Nebula Mars II can be taken into the desert for a unique entertainment under-the-stars experience. Campers can just plug and play their favorite HDMI and USB 2.0 devices that include laptops, Playstation, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and more.
With a Nebula projector, the only thing you gotta worry about is who’s making the popcorn?! 🍿
P.s one lil birdie even used a whole microwave with the Anker PowerHouse so no excuses in the great outdoors…

Step 2: Find your big camping car
