Inflating camping tent - the outdoor life in under a minute
from:The inflating camping tent has become extremely popular for the outdoor enthusiast. This innovative idea ranks alongside self erecting camping tents as a way of cutting out the trouble of finding tent poles and setting up camp after a long day out in the country.
The beauty of an inflating camping tent is not only that it requires practically no effort to set up and dismantle but also that this can be done at any time. Even if you reach your camping destination after dark, the inflating camping tent will set itself up and be ready in seconds for you to stow your gear and relax. Inflating camping tents have no additional parts that risk being broken or lost and they fold down for compact storage. Their simple design also makes them a very affordable option for camping in all kinds of vacations, from the beach to backpacking.
The inflating camping tent design works by having inflatable tent poles already built into it. Therefore, it only requires you to unpack it and attach a source of air to the built-in valve. The tent and the air source require only a small amount of storage space and fit easily into any car or other vehicle. Air sources can include:
* Air-compressor - anything that inflates car tires will work
* Air tank - can be filled at any gas station air pump
* Air-exchanger
* CO2 dispenser - a more expensive option but has many other uses
* Diving tank - perfect for the scuba diving camper!
You can even use a bicycle pump to set up your inflating camping tent - it just requires a little more effort.
All the inflation methods above are safe and environmentally friendly. Inflating camping tents are also designed so that cannot be overfilled. Once they reach optimum pressure the valves prevent overfilling. When the tent is inflated, all you need to do is stake it to the ground if the weather seems a little windy!
Deflating the tent is just as easy as inflating it. In fact, the whole process is as simple as that of an airbed. Once you release the valve, the air will escape and you can roll up the tent and store it.
A good inflating camping tent is lightweight and durable. The design tends to be domed rather than walled, for ease of set-up. Don't forget that a good quality sleeping mat and sleeping bag are essential for making the most of your camping experience. Sleeping pads and bag liners will ensure a good night's sleep, as will a proper outdoor sleeping bag. Make sure to buy a bag that is appropriate for the coldest expected outside temperatures.
