Stay clean in the backcountry using just one gallon of water with Geyser System

Playing in the outdoors means getting dirty. Whether you’re on a weekend camping trip, living out of your van, or traveling in a foreign land where running water is limited, staying clean can be a difficult task. When you don’t have access to a hot shower, you resort to rubbing down your body with baby wipes, wet rags, or pouring gallons of water over your head — resulting in the waste of a valuable resource. Geyser System is the innovative solution to these backcountry woes, serving as an advanced and portable shower system that you can take with you anywhere.

Geyser System addresses the three most common issues with outdoor shower systems: Minimal water, lack of storage space, and lack of electricity. This unique product offers a full range of flow rates that you can tailor to your needs. One gallon of water lasts for seven minutes — which is plenty of time to get clean, whether you’re covered in mud, sunscreen, or debris. The shower system is compact and weighs just 11 pounds, making it ideal to carry in a car trunk or a backpack. No power? No problem! The Geyser System runs off the 12-volt DC power supply found in all vehicles and is also compatible with one deep cycle battery.

Water supply is limited in many countries around the world, so the company designed Geyser System with a focus on efficiency, optimizing water usage with a special Geyser Valve. The best part? Heating elements provide for a warm shower up to 95 degrees Fahrenheit and it’s inherently safe by design. There are numerous measures in place that make Geyser System as safe as it is efficient. A lid sensor deactivates the heating element if not properly screwed on while temperature sensors monitor the water temperature and turn off the heating element when the water reaches 95 degrees. If you pour in water that is too warm, the pump won’t function until the water cools. There is also a water level sensor that will shut off the heating element when the water level gets too low. A smart LED dashboard displays the water temperature, water level, and heating element status. Added safety features include a plastic gate to keep fingers safe from the heating elements and thermostats and a hose connector constructed from non-corrosive plastics.

You can set up the Geyser System in three simple steps. Just add water, connect to a DC outlet, and attach a Geyser Skrub. Then simply turn the pump on, switch to heat mode, then once it’s heated, it’s ready to pump — and you’re ready to get clean. Replacement Geyser Skrubs are easily reordered and available in a variety of colors. While crowdfunded projects are not guaranteed, Geyser System is nearly halfway funded after just a couple of days. A pledge of $195 on the company’s Kickstarter campaign page gives you the best chance of getting your hands on your very own Geyser System once it goes into production.

This trail-tested, road ready Aventon e-bike is $200 off — We gave it 4.5 stars
Aventon Ramblas eMTB e-bike for trail and off-road rides

At the risk of repeating myself, we are rather fond of Aventon e-bikes here at Digital Trends. They tend to review favorably because of how much value they offer. Take the Ramblas eMTB e-bike, for instance. We gave it four and a half stars in our review back in August. Resident reviewer and e-bike expert, Bruce Brown, praised it for its "strong hardtail" frame, excellent mid-drive torque, strong stopping power, smooth ride experience, and competitive pricing. The latter is a real highlight, but get this, it's also on sale right now for $200 off. So, that competitive pricing is even more enticing. Normally $2,899, it's down to $2,699 thanks to a big sale, saving you $200. Check out that sale for yourself, otherwise let's discuss why this is such a great e-bike, especially if you like trail riding.

Mod Bikes launches a BMW-inspired, limited-edition sidecar e-bike
MOD Easy Sidecar Sahara limited edition e-bike.

Mod Bikes has introduced the Mod Easy Sidecar Sahara, a limited-edition sidecar-style cargo e-bike modeled on the 1940s BMW R75 Sahara motorcycle. On November 9, 2024, Mod will exhibit the Sidecar Sahara at the Electrify Expo at the Circuit of the Americas racetrack in Austin, Texas.
Mod does sidecars

The BMW R 75 Sahara, which inspired the limited-edition e-bike, is a highly collectible motorcycle. Mod Bikes is one of the few e-bike manufacturers that sells e-bikes with sidecars in the U.S., along with other styles. The versatile Easy Sidecar models transform in just a few minutes from a sidecar e-bike to a standard, two-wheel e-bike. However, the sidecar configuration is fun for carrying pets, children, small adults, and groceries or other cargo.

I’m convinced Pins and Aces golf outfits are great for everyone, not just athletes
Pins and Aces banner with clothing styles

Some clothing designs stand the test of time, others transcend fashion categories or groups, just like Pins & Aces. Allow me to explain. Primarily meant for golfers and athletes, Pins & Aces carries a wide variety of golf-themed gear from golf bags to unique club heads. I don't really play golf so that doesn't excite me much. Maybe it piques your interest? Anyway, what does interest me is the large collection of unique and snazzy apparel. They don't just carry polos, they also carry streetwear, hats, shorts, joggers, and even women's and youth apparel. Thanks to Black Friday and the holiday shopping season, a ton of Pins & Aces apparel is on sale right now too. Go check it out.
