ViewSonic VA1655 Portable Monitor
Whether you’re working on the road or just want a larger screen for watching Netflix and YouTube videos, a portable monitor is a great addition to your RV. The ViewSonic VA1655 is a 15.6″ display with a 1080p HD resolution that comes with a built-in kickstand for quick and easy set-up. Connecting laptop or PC is breeze, too, thanks to built-in mini HDMI and USB-C ports, while two build-in speakers crank out music and other audio. Best of all, when not in use, it folds down flat and stores away without taking up much room. MSRP: $109.99

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Noise Cancelling Headphones
Noise-cancelling headphones are a game-changer at a busy campground, allowing you to listen to music, podcasts, audio books, and videos without distraction. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra models offer best-in-class performance, blocking out external sounds so you can enjoy some peace and quiet while relaxing or working. These headphones offer up to 24 hours of battery life between charges and support Bluetooth multipoint connectivity, meaning you can connect them to multiple devices and seamlessly switch between gadgets as needed. They also happen to offer excellent sound and are super comfortable to wear. MSRP: $429

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite E-Reader
Sure, a full-featured tablet offers a lot more functionality, but when you truly want to focus on reading a great book, it is still hard to beat a dedicated e-reader. Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite remains best-in-class, offering a 7″ glare-free display that closely mimics the actual look of a physical book. The latest model is faster and more responsive than ever, while still offering battery life that is measured in weeks rather than hours. And of course, you get access to the largest selection of e-books on the market, ensuring your next great read is always just a tap away. MSRP: $159

Rocky Talkie 5 Watt Radio
We all know that two-way radios can be extremely useful when camping. Not only do they allow us to communicate with others when cell service is nonexistent, they can be super handy when out hiking, biking, fishing, or doing just about any other outdoor activity. The Rocky Talkie 5 Watt Radio is a powerful option to have at your disposal. These units offer up to five days of battery life, are IP67 waterproof, and have an effective range of 2 to 8 miles depending on terrain. They even provide access to 11 weather channels to keep track of changing conditions. MSRP: $180

Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Mini Projector
Need a compact, easily stowable way to watch your favorite TV shows and movies? Want to take your next RV movie night to the next level? Just add an Anker Nebula Capsule 3 to your rig and enjoy all of the benefits this mini video projector has to offer. Not much larger than a Coke can, this device can project up to a 120″ display. It can even automatically sense the environment and adjust the projection size to fit the space available. The device runs Google TV, giving it access to all of the streaming apps and services—including Netflix—and it offers a 1080P HD resolution at 200 ANSI lumens of brightness with a 2.5-hour battery life. And when you’re done, it stores neatly in a drawer. MSRP: $499

Heybike Mars 2.0 E-Bike
E-bikes are a great way to explore a new destination, get some exercise, or just run some errands, which are all reasons why they’ve become popular with RVers. But not every RV has room for a full-size model, making foldable e-bikes a great alternative. The Heybike Mars 2.0 is one of the best folding models on the market, offering up to 45 miles of range and a top speed of 28 mph. And when you’re done riding, it folds down to a surprisingly small size for storage. MSRP: $1,499.

Theragun Mini Massage Gun
After a long, active day of travel and exercise, our muscles can get sore and tight, making it difficult to relax and unwind. A massage gun can help relieve that tension and pain stress, helping you to get more comfortable, recover more quickly, and sleep better, too. The Theragun Mini is compact, lightweight, and easy to use. Specifically designed for on-the-go use, this little gadget packs a punch, helping ease muscle fatigue wherever and whenever you need it. MSRP: $199

Starlink Mini
Starlink isn’t a new thing for many RVers, but the Starlink Mini kit may not have previously been on your radar. This version of the company’s hardware uses an incredibly small receiver to pull in satellite internet signals. It’s so small in fact, that the device fits neatly in a backpack and can run for several hours off of a portable power bank. That makes it a great option for #vanlifers or anyone else who wants a high-speed connection (up to 150 mbps) in the RV. The system is easy to set up and take down, and stores away in a very small space. Something that everyone can appreciate. MSRP: $499 for hardware. Subscription prices start at $50/month.
