Totally agree about the Helionox chair! Incredibly comfortable and you can actually put a pillow in the pocket of the headrest for added comfort. An optional accessory is a mat that attaches to the feet so you wont sink in the sand.
Oh man I need to get that mat lol, I didn’t even know about that. I haven’t sunk in yet but I’m sure when the snow gets the ground all wet I may need that.
I've had both the Helinox chairs (sundowner i think) and the table for years. Great for camping and tailgating for football games and kids games. There's also a clip on cup holder for them now as well.
Sick video, I would say out of all the things you listed the devos has been the biggest game changer, people are always asking about it and I’ve personally bought 5 at this point for myself and as gifts. The camp chef stove looked awesome, super beefy and well made might have to get one once my Coleman goes out finally.
I just got my 3rd this week. I just got a new house and the basement had bad lighting so before we put lights in that was my main form of lighting. I have one set up outside on our porch as well. Love the light ranger.
I’m going to try to do my best in the future to point out the basics along with the expensive stuff. I tried it in this video and we will see if people like that.
I feel like this video is just a stream of temptation for people like me who love collecting gear. 😂 I'm going to resist the urge until I buy my van. Great recommendations!
Well if it makes you feel any better I will bring the basic stuff every time, I probably won’t bring all the expensive stuff unless I’m going for a week. The “next level” things I use every time are the chair and table combo, the Devos light ranger, the heated blanket, probably the Boxio, the grill… and if I’m going for a multi day camp then I’ll take the other stuff.
@@OXFOOT I have a lot of things I take out every time I go (generally for 4-7 days when I can get away). Shorter trips are too much work and end up being an energy suck on my already low reserves, unfortunately. I bought the Devos 1200 a few weeks ago and have been eyeballing the Helinox chair and table for years. Maybe I can make them my Christmas present to myself this year. 🙃 See? Gear collector!
It is really great. Probably the most versatile. Been using it in my basement while I was awaiting my light fixtures arriving to install them. Actually have a ton of uses
Yeah the other three videos in this series will do that was well. I find myself sometimes buying the cheap thing and sometimes going more expensive, I think that’s most people also. Mostly the cheaper options but occasionally there’s something you just gotta have and that’s cool too. No way I would bring all of this every single time I camp.
@OXFOOT Yeah, I find myself doing most of my campaign gear and 4x4 mods from place like tsc and Walmart. That's why I love the videos you did and do that Involve place like that
When you said 'next level' I thought you just meant the next level up from basic, but obviously I realise now you meant it idiomatically as 'Whoa - that's NEXT LEVEL Man!' Because, let's face it, there's quite a few steps between Wet Wipes and a Hot Tap haha!
I know about the Camp Chef Mountianeer but I bought an Everest (older version, the 2X wasn't made yet) because I wanted a smaller unit, Works great and the BTU ouput is the same. I bought the newer Everest 2X recently but it's a little larger so it's going to be a home back up. I also have their Big Gas Grill which is a 3 burner and has a removable BBQ box that covers 2 burners and I have the 2 burner Explorer. (yes, I understand I have an addiction) On all the stoves, if you're not carefull, you will burn what your cooking! Found out the hard way.
Yeah I should have prefaced this with “I don’t always bring all of this stuff with me” stuff like the shower, toilet and stuff like that would only be a two or more night camp. Chairs are always coming with me, Devos, camp chef, heated blanket and hand wipes are always coming as well.
Have you run any of the cook partner stove stuff? I love how rugged those stoves look/are... Eventually my ol' Coleman 2 burner is gonna stop working. 😂
I’ve had that in my sights but there’s so many to test out there. I might give it a closer look. I will say I still used my dad’s old Coleman from the 70s up until about 5 years ago but things aren’t always made like they used to be.
@@OXFOOT my dad still uses his green Coleman that uses liquid fuel and uses a leather ring to seal the fuel lines. 😂 My Coleman is only ~8 years old and I think the burners need to be replaced already :-(
I have that chair from Aliexpress and similar table. It's really light.. to the point that I wouldn't use it if I'm on a car as It's not that rugged, especially for American sizes, not as comfy as bigger ones also. But If you care about space or need a backup or careful while solo then it's a great option.
Sure I could see that. I’m around 185lbs so I’m probably on the lighter side for an American. I do think they are nice but maybe not for let’s say Americans of girth.
I’m trying to decide on a camp cooking system. Have you ever used a griddle at camp (either a dedicated griddle or using a griddle on a stove like you showed here)?
Unused to own a griddle and I liked it but I found it a bit bulky and it rattled a lot offroad when had my 4Runner. Now that I have that separation with the cab and the truck bed I might be willing to do it again. I had a 17” blackstone before.
@OXFOOT issues were resolved. But for the price and what they are. these things should work right out of the box. That was not the case for me. I received a replacement quickly after notifying.
You’d need a dedicated trailer to haul all of the stuff you showcased today lol. Nice stuff and good video but none of it is needed to get out and enjoy the outdoors.
When I first started I had a ton of stuff already but most of it was budget stuff. I’ve been camping since I was a kid and I started out with my dad’s old stuff and then added my own as I got more money.
I still don’t think I’ll ever be the big ole 100k Offroad RV guy no matter how much I make but I do find myself spending a bit more than I should these days lol
@@OXFOOT Awesome stuff, man. Appreciate it! Wanting to start camping a lot more but don’t wanna spend thousands right off the bat. Definitely would be cool to slowly upgrade the gear over time though!
Im not really in that great of shape tbh but It weighs 3lbs 7oz so there will be some folks that can’t lift it with one but probably most will be able to get it with 2 hands.
No, you caught me. I’m really good at CGI. All my winter camping videos I shot in a studio, I’m actually a billionaire. I was a broke college student camping with a backpack and hammock off the Appalachian trail back in the day but once I got good at CGI I just started working on that instead of actually camping. Yeah it takes a long time to edit but it’s much easier than going out in the woods and setting up a camera.
And it seems like the point of this video might have been lost on you lmao. Basic vs next level means it’s going to be talking about the basics you need vs the high end gear.
@@OXFOOT Hey, that reminds me - I've got your new Latex Woodsman Mask with the integrated beard and the self-activating voice-deepener with the life-like Adam's Apple. Shall I drop it off for you in the usual mailbox? I'm sure none of your subscribers suspect a thing Darlin'! Hehe.

Also need to actually try the pillow in that headrest pocket as well.
Dude this is great, 1st set up I have seen which is not overkill.

I just bought the Devos 1200 light a few weeks ago. Can't wait to take it out!
Good video. You’re always a good source for reasonable, (sometimes a little on the expensive side) gear choices.
I’m going to try to do my best in the future to point out the basics along with the expensive stuff. I tried it in this video and we will see if people like that.
Just a heads up. Amazon has the Zonli heated blanket for $313, but the actual company has it on sale for $169.99.
Thanks, I just changed it.
The jetboil genesis and the traeger ranger were a huge game changer for me.
Woah! I didn’t even know about the ranger. I’m going to get this. I just missed out on buying a traeger 22 for half off this weekend.
I feel like this video is just a stream of temptation for people like me who love collecting gear. 😂 I'm going to resist the urge until I buy my van. Great recommendations!

Definitely thinking of grabbing the shower. Then mounting it in the truck bed.
Great video.
Mounting it in the bed would be legendary. I have the mount if you end up doing that. It didn’t work for me unfortunately
@@OXFOOT ill let ya know how it goes!
I own a Zero Breeze, and it's definitely a game changer for the sweltering nights!
Love the video. Really interested in that shower for sure.
I love the shower, been using it a bunch. I’m even about to try giving my dog some outdoor baths with it since he hates being washed in the shower.
@@OXFOOT oh good idea! May have to try that with my dog when I get this shower
Devos light is my favorite piece of gear I own
It is really great. Probably the most versatile. Been using it in my basement while I was awaiting my light fixtures arriving to install them. Actually have a ton of uses
Awesome video 📹 enjoy seeing all the options out there in a video that for the average joy

Cheat codes to level up! 👍👍
Absolutely! Level ⬆️
I would have appreciated a timeline in the video. Great suggestions, and I'll definitely consider getting that heated blanket!
Do you mean the timestamps?
@@OXFOOT yes!

Love the Devos lights. Have a pair of em when on sale. But the company does have some quality control issues and can inprove on communication.
Personally I haven’t had those issues, have you tried reaching out to their IG account with the QC issues?
@OXFOOT issues were resolved. But for the price and what they are. these things should work right out of the box. That was not the case for me. I received a replacement quickly after notifying.
Thats a great stove not a grill. I got that cheap Coleman thats half stove half grill and it works pretty good. Great video, loving the content.
You’d need a dedicated trailer to haul all of the stuff you showcased today lol. Nice stuff and good video but none of it is needed to get out and enjoy the outdoors.
For sure, that’s why I tried to point out the basic stuff before hand. You can get hand wipes or a sink, your comforter or a heated blanket.
Nice
Thanks!
How much had you spent on gear when you first started your channel?
When I first started I had a ton of stuff already but most of it was budget stuff. I’ve been camping since I was a kid and I started out with my dad’s old stuff and then added my own as I got more money.

6:15 "one hand easily can carry this" says the fit man, but what about all of us puny internet people?
Im not really in that great of shape tbh but It weighs 3lbs 7oz so there will be some folks that can’t lift it with one but probably most will be able to get it with 2 hands.
A joke I hope. Hit the gym
A blood pressure sink 😂 interesting
Edit: that price point 😂 even more interesting
That’s what I was thinking when I got it. I had just done a check up a few days prior.
@@OXFOOT hahaha yeah brother. Those of us that use these for work will at least have spare parts if the sink goes down 👊🏾🤘🏾
This is rich people camping. Do you even go camping
