Folding Table
Spending time outdoors is great for the mind, body, and soul. Lugging around a table and multiple chairs can take up a lot of space, but what if you could combine the two and move everything all at once? Vingli’s 4-foot portable picnic table provides a sturdy and simple solution to this dilemma. The 21.6-pound foldable table can be set up in a few minutes by one person and is great for all kinds of outdoor activities. The table is made of medium-density fiberboard and an aluminum-alloy frame. Each seat can bear a maximum weight of 265 pounds, and the table itself can hold up to 110 pounds. The powder-coated aluminum legs have four locks at the bottom, plus nonslip rubber feet to keep the table secure. When folded, the set measures 34 inches by 4 inches by 13 inches, and it has a built-in handle. Price is $69.99.

LED Pancake Light
Color-changing light fixtures make it possible to control a room’s ambience and mood without changing out lightbulbs. SalVinCo’s Kelvin LED 12-volt pancake light can cycle through different color temperatures: warm, neutral, or cool white. All you have to do is press the fixture switch to change the color. To make your lighting choice more personal, you can use the built-in dimming function to change the brightness from 25 to 100 percent. With its non-volatile memory feature, it will remember your last lighting settings. To help occupants find the switch at night, it has a glow-in-the-dark indicator (noctilucent) that doesn’t consume power. The Kelvin light fixture is sized to replace older technology fixtures, is said to be easy to install, and comes with hidden mounting hardware. Price is $69.

Portable Compressor
Maintaining proper pressure in RV tires is essential. Having a portable air source on board avoids the need to look for a place to inflate the tires during your travels. The Viair 450P-RVS Automatic 12-volt portable tire inflator is designed for use with Type As and smaller RVs. The 450P-RVS will inflate most Type A motorhome tires from 80 to 90 psi in just 50 seconds. This 100 percent duty cycle unit is capable of pressures up to 150 psi and can be operated for up to one hour at a time before needing to be rested (at up to 100 psi). Not only can this compressor fill tires, but it also could be used for winterizing your RV, filling inflatables, dirt blowing, and more. This tire inflator features a newly revised 40-inch 90-degree twist-on chuck to make it easier to fill tires while standing. It also comes with a 45-degree extended-reach chuck, two 30-foot hoses, a three-piece inflation tip set, and a carry bag. The Viair 450P-RVS can be purchased from Etrailer, TechnoRV, United RV, and other retailers; the manufacturer’s suggested retail price is $399.95.
