Light Your Way with Quad Headlamps

Published: Jan 8th, 2009 | Author: Alex Bhaswara Add Comment

Night vision, a self-explanatory term, is the ability to see in the dark. Human being’s inability to see in the dark is the reason why dark alleys are so scary and power cuts are more annoying. Groping in the dark is not only creepy, but it is dangerous too and that is why a source of light becomes an object of importance. Especially, when you go on a hiking, trekking, or camping trip, you need to carry a headlamp, flashlight, or lantern with you. Because, you may not know when you will be surrounded by fog when you are camping out in a hilly area, or your hiking trail may lead to a dense forest, where you hardly get a glimpse of sunlight. Compared to flashlights and lanterns, headlamps are the best choice for outdoor activities, as they leave your hands free to carry your tents, sleep gear, and other accessories. If you are planning for your next camping trip, get equipped with a high-quality headlamp.

How to Buy Your First Sleeping Bag

Published: Jan 7th, 2009 | Author: Alex Bhaswara Add Comment

Like you, I love camping and there is nothing better than sleeping outside on a cool spring night. I started camping a few years ago and decided to make the investment and buy a tent, sleeping bag and all of the other amenities. When I started looking for a sleeping bag I was overwhelmed with the style and selection that were available. After some research I bought my first sleeping bag and I have been happy ever since. To save you some time, I have written down some tips that helped me make my first sleeping bag purchase.

To start, you have to decide on the temperature rating you want for your sleeping bag. Think about the approximate temperature when you will be camping or hiking. Generally, sleeping bags are rated as: 3-Season (+10 degrees to +32 degrees), winter (-10 and below), summer (+32 and higher) and cold weather (+10 to -10). And remember, it makes sense to choose a bag that is rated a little bit lower than you will need. A lower rated sleeping bag will keep you warm if the temperature really drops down on a cold night. Plus, you can always unzip the bag if you need to cool off.

Business Travel Tips for the Rest of Your Family

Published: Jan 7th, 2009 | Author: Alex Bhaswara Add Comment

Business travel tips often focus on how to make the actual traveler’s trip easier. But what about the family that is left behind? Often times depending on the age of the kids, it can be just as stressful for them and your spouse. While you are planning out your next trip, take some time to plan out how you are going to spend quality time with your family both before and after the trip.

One thing to plan is something to do when you return so everyone can look forward to that activity and not on the absence. Plan for a trip to the zoo or some other age appropriate activity for your children.

Also it is a good idea to not let your suitcase sit near the front door. This way children do not associate that with you leaving. Seeing a suitcase near the door can trigger negative moods in children, so leave it in your bedroom until just before leaving.
