Trade show newsCamping comfort from AkalsOctober 2007
The Akals range of outdoor products have grown substantially the past few years and several interesting new products were on display at their countrywide shows held during August. For example, no more falling around in the dark trying to pitch a tent with the Quecha…you simply throw the folded tent in the air and it unfolds before it hits the ground. What’s more, it can be refolded into a bag in less than a minute. Ideal for bikers and adventure trailists who do not want to do hard labour pitching a tent after a long day’s activity. The tent, bag and pegs weigh 1.3kg in total.
Another new trend in the Akals tents are door openings that are wide enough for a double air mattress to fit, and tents that are easier and easier to pitch (e.g. the River 260) New lighting products include a very strong and bright 37 LED torch and a lightweight 3-LED headlamp with batteries that can be recharged with a wind-up charger to ensure that you never get caught without light — or even a cell phone as it will recharge a Nokia long enough for emergency calls! There is also a wind-up spotlight and a cordless rechargeable air pump that can pump an inflatable boat or double air bed in four minutes. The queen-size airbed with double air pocket will appeal to more mature campers as the height of the mattress is close to that of an ordinary bed. A fairly sturdy zip-up clothes cupboard that can be folded and stored in a bag, as well as a new melamine table that can fold up into a carry case, further contributes to camping comfort.
