perfect for those who need to keep up to date with their box sets whilst away.

Cello says that at just 2.4kg, this is the lightest smart television in the world.
It’ll run off either a standard 230V socket or a 12V cable and can be attached to a pre-existing wall-mounted bracket or be free-standing when used with the mount supplied.

With built-in wifi and a satellite tuner, you’ll not only be able to pick up the free-to-air channels, but you can also download apps such as Netflix and YouTube to watch your favourite streamed shows too.

We found the on-screen interface very user-friendly and the picture quality, contrast and brightness were exceptionally good considering the price of the TV.

Two HDMI inputs and a USB 2.0 port mean plugging in external devices such as a games console is also a breeze.

One thing we struggled with however, was the remote control. We found the buttons either too sensitive or not sensitive enough to our inputs. When typing in wifi details using the remote, it frequently replicated characters or moved the cursor in different directions. This was a problem we could find no solution to, since to use these web functions the only way to enter information is to use the remote. We could only persevere and eventually managed to persuade the TV to accept our details. But it was a fairly fundamental issue with an otherwise decent product, and tainted the set-up experience for us.

Be aware as well that you will need to supply your own aerial cable, as the TV doesn’t come with one supplied.

While we were very impressed with the Cello Smart Traveller TV, can vouch for how exceptionally lightweight it is and can’t really fault it at this price, the difficulties with the remote were a big cause of frustration in getting the TV set up.

 

The compact range include the Power-Glow MINI, pictured here, which offers 100 lumens and also features a built-in powerbank to help keep your devices charged. A Power-Glow Plus is also available, which offers 450 lumens.

Light modes include different levels of white light brightness, a red light and a flashing red SOS light. The MINI offers up to 60 hours of battery life and the Plus offers up to 77. There’s also a medium size, offering 72 hours. They might seem expensive, but the build quality reflects the price, plus you get accessories such as a lanyard and storage bag. Members can get 25 per cent off the prices below for a limited time.

We’ve found them to be extremely robust and very reliable when charging devices, providing a good rate of power even when being used for lighting at the same time. The output is bright, more than enough for use on the campsite, even from the smallest of the three. We think they make a great accessory to have on the campsite.

Its popularity is thanks no doubt to its range of fun tee-shirts, casual weekend-style clothing and its ever-popular, easy to wear Macaroni sweatshirt range.

The company created its famous Macaroni Fabric – named for its likeness to the Italian pasta – some 25 years ago after coming across a number of neglected knitting machines in a Turkish factory. The unique, slow-spun, triple twisted fabric combining cotton, polyester and viscose is the basis for the popular Macaroni range of sweatshirts, including the ladies Geranium 1/4 zip top.

It's eay to see why the Geranium is the company's most iconic women's sweatshirt. The pull-on, casual styling is perfect to wear about camp. Warm and cosy, heavy-weight without the bulk the Geranium is a welcome mid-layer on colder days out and about.

Nice touches include a drawstring neck to ensure a snug fit and keet out drafts, two side lined pockets, bound side vents and drop-tail hem. And, of course, there's a leather weird Fish badge on the hem and metal Werid Fish zip pull.

Wash after wash, these sweatshirts retain their shape, they don’t pill and never need ironing, making them an ideal addition to your rucksack.

So, what does the future hold for Weird Fish? It's good news. The company is looking to further develope the Macaroni range with the production its first Green Organic Carbon Neutral Macaroni. We can't wait. 

Lightweight, super warm and a snug fit thanks to a well thought-out design – what more could you want from a sleeping bag? Not much to be honest – a large foot box area and front-facing zip (our favourite feature) add to this high-end bag’s appeal, if you can afford it.

If you fit this description, these boots might just be for you. In many cases, the extended joints in the foot make it difficult to find a well-fitting walking boot that’s comfortable for a full day in the hills, but German manufacturer Hanwag has come up with a solution.

These lightweight walking boots have a soft nubuck upper that’s waxed to help keep the water out. Alongside the softness of the leather, the lack of seams on the inside makes for extra comfort around extended joints.

Our tester has fallen in love with the leather-lined version of the Alta boot, though a Gore-tex version is also available. She says: “These boots were a revelation. I have got used to stretching and wearing-in walking boots before heading outside, but these were comfortable and I spent a full day in them straight out of the box. They may not be cheap, but what value do you put on the enjoyment you get from a good walk in the outdoors?
“It’s also the first time for a while I’ve been able to wear a boot that’s the correct length for my feet. Recently I’ve been buying larger sizes to accommodate my foot’s width.
“These Hanwag boots have kept my feet comfortable and dry all day and I look forward to many years enjoying them on campsites and in the hills.”

The quality of the leather upper and Vibram Endurance sole suggests the boots should last a long time, assuming they are properly looked after.
