Mifine LED Headlamp

Mifine LED Headlamp Review
By Brittany Johnson

The Mifine LED Headlamp is a durable, waterproof, 1000-1200 lumen light with a red taillight. This product is rechargable and comes with a cigarette lighter adapter with two USB ports, a wall charger, USB cable, two 18650 x 3.7V rechargable lithium batteries (but may also use regular AA batteries) and an extra set of straps. The product weighs 1.2 pounds and the dimensions are 1.4' x 1.4' x 1.7'. The headlamp is aluminum casted with an elastic headband and has a single power button with three modes for a bright light, low light and strobe light. It's lifespan is up to 100,000 hours.

I love this head lamp and have been using it for quite some time now. It's bright enough to set up camp at night with ease. I appreciate that it is light enough to take hiking, camping and especially backpacking and its durable enough to survive through these trips. It fits perfectly over a hat or beanie if necessary but fits comfortable on just your head as well. On longer trips, I use the USB cable to recharge the headlamp with my solar panel. The full charge lasts quite awhile, I have used it for up to 6 hours and have yet to have it die on me. I still recharge after usage just incase. When fully charged, the light on the USB cable turns green, so you don't have to worry about wondering whether it's charged or not and overcharging the batteries.

IBeek Solar Charger/Power Bank

iBeek Solar Charger/Power Bank Review
By Brittany Johnson

The iBeek solar charger/power bank is a small, portable solution for on-the-go charging during outdoor adventures. The power bank has a 12,000 mAh lithium battery with a dual USB solar panel and a built-in emergency flashlight and strobe light. Phones and tablets can be charged at the same time. The power bank holds up to 5 full iPhone charges and the power bank can be fully charged ahead of time with a micro USB cable. A carabiner clip makes carrying easy during backpacking, camping and hiking. The whole panel weighs only 9.3 ounces and its dimensions are 6" x 3" x 3/4". The built-in solar panel is great for recharginng the power bank, and although solar power is 30% as effective, I have never had any issues with lack of power. Charges in direct and indirect sunlight.

I take this panel with me everywhere. The carabiner clips allows me to clip it to my daypack for hikes and also allows for easy hanging on my hammock and on my tent when I need power for my electronic accessories. I hang the panel on my rain fly outside of my tent and run the cords through my power port to allow for charging accessories inside of my tent. Definitely recommend this panel to my fellow outdoor enthusiasts.

Rallt Hammock Tree Straps

Rallt Hammock Tree Strap Review
By Brittany Johnson

Rallt brand tree straps are an excellent tree-safe and quick hanging solution. These straps save time by removing the utlization of knots which can be harder to untie after hanging body weight on the connection ropes. The set comes with two ten foot, 3/4 " non-stretch polyester tubular webbed straps, includes 18 carabiner loops on each strap and is woven with reflective tracers along the straps for convenient night-time setup. The straps are tested for a 1200 pound tensile strength but are recommended to hold up to 500 pounds and are Rallt, ENO, Kammok, Hennessy, Yukon and Grand Trunk compatible (amongst others). The straps come in a small carrying satchel that is sized at 4" x 4" x 1.5" which makes it small enough for backpacking and for day hiking trips. The straps and satchel weigh less than one pound. Combined with the Rallt brand camping hammock, the straps and the hammock will weigh less than two pounds and take up minimal space in your backpack or daypack.

I have been using my Rallt tree straps to hang my Rallt hammock from trees, pillars, bushes, rocks and posts. I have taken these straps hiking, camping, and to work and I have never had an issue with stretching or hanging lower than intended. These straps are reliable, sturdy and lightweight which makes carrying very convenient. I definitely recommend Rallt brand tree straps to my fellow campers, hikers, and outdoor lovers in general.

Rallt Hammock

Rallt Camping Hammock Review
By Brittany Johnson

Rallt hammocks are lightweight, camping hammocks made from a triple-stitched parachute nylon bound together with nautical-grade rope and aluminum wire gate carabiners. The hammock comes with a set of two pieces of 6mm polypropylene rope for hanging the hammock but I recommend purchasing the Rallt brand tree straps for easy set-up and take-down (which I will also post a review about). The hammock holds up to 400 pounds and weighs only 13.47 ounces. The hammock folds into its attached pouch which is sized at 6" x 6" x 4", making it compact enough for backpacking and lightweight enough for day hiking trips as well. There is a small compression strap on the hammock pouch which allows for quickly compressing your hammock into your daypack and also allows for easy carabiner-clipping to gear packs.

I carry a Rallt hammock with me everywhere I go. It is light enough the store in my daypack without even realizing that it is there. I have camped with it, hiked with it and even set it up at work. So far, I have had friends ranging from 100 pounds to 300 pounds testing the hammock's strength and it hasn't failed me yet. I definitely recommend this hammock to my fellow outdoor lovers.
