"WHEN IT'S CHARGED, this 4-pound lithium battery pack will power a laptop for up to six hours or a camcorder for 100. It can be recharged at a wall outlet or in a vehicle. If you add Brunton's solar panel, the pack can run indefinitely. All in all, it's the most powerful and versatile portable power unit we've seen," says Field & Stream.

Brunton Polaris Camping Lamp
On the other end of the weight spectrum, but perfect for car camping (where you drive to the campsite) or backyarding it, is the Brunton Polaris. It weighs about one pound, due to its use of C-size batteries, but I love it because it makes everybody look great. Seriously: If you have a romantic camping outing on your mind, lighting is everything; the last thing you want is to bathe you and your companion in the same light they use to illuminate the produce aisle at Costco. The Polaris has a unique orange filter that looks like soft firelight, making you look, you know, outdoorsy and healthy. Link to story
