It would be an understatement to say that there are currently a lot of bit-driver-equipped multitools on Kickstarter. A new one sets itself apart from the pack, however, in that it sports a total of six features including storage space for four bits.

There are nearly 60 million active hikers in the US. It's estimated over a hundred thousand hikers are issued overnight permits from various state and national parks each year. Where exactly are you supposed to doo-doo when exploring nature?

Earlier this year, Berg Offroad introduced the CX6, a trailer that packs small but expands into an all-out family base camp. The builder's latest trailer tows on the same small footprint but adds comfort at camp by sleeping half the occupants.

While there are many multitools that include a bit driver along with a lot of other tools, what if a driver is all you really need? That's where the tiny, compact ScrewMaster comes in – and it does also let you break car windows in emergencies.

My family spent a week with the Taxa Outdoors Woolly Bear Overland camp trailer, and we loved it. Camp trailers like this are an off-road-ready camping option with a lot of storage, organization, and other useful features.

Nothing about the Tesla Cybertruck (or the pickup campers built for it) has made it look like a particularly inviting camping vehicle. Living Vehicle's Cybertrailer changes that, looking like a downright pleasant place to base camp.

Radica hit the pickup camping scene a couple years ago with the Moonlander, a truck cap that's part security shell, part camper. The new Moonlander X looks at first to go a more traditional route but functions a little differently than it appears.

Motorized carts like the e-Wagon can definitely help you haul heavy loads, but what if the cart itself is a bit heftier than you'd like? Well, you can always just buy a lighter and less costly model … such as the e-Wagon Air.

Even if you don't usually carry a multitool, there are times when a pen, a craft knife or a screwdriver could just be super handy. The Ti-ONE gives you these and more at a super-compact size small enough to hang off a keychain or necklace.

For many coffee aficionados, traveling means having to go without their daily cup of artisanal pour-over java. The iKoffy GoBrew coffee maker is out to change that, as it's designed to let users be their own barista while on the road.

Dometic's Cadac 2 Cook 3 stove has long been one of the most versatile camp cookers out there, combining a dual-burner stove, grill and griddle. This year, Dometic adds even more capability with the launch of the Cadac 2 Cook 3 Turbo Deluxe.

If you're an avid camper, you likely know someone who's built their own camp-kitchen-in-a-box. Well, if you like the idea but don't want to build such a setup yourself, you can always just buy the stackable Brio Kitchen Box.

Duovox has followed its successful Kickstarter for a military-grade night-vision monocular with a Pro version that promises to bring the hidden darkness into "true full color." The nocturnal adventure gadget is also joined by a teeny smartphone camera.

On the same day it introduced its cheapest teardrop trailer in years, Hiker also debuted something entirely different. The versatile GearLoft has two full levels of gear carry for items as large as canoes and an optional electric-lift penthouse tent.

Pulled wagons are great for moving stuff around, but tackling heavier loads can be exhausting. Startup Litefar has launched the Orion, a motorized cargo wagon with remote control that can haul up to 180 lb of gear so you don't have to.
