When traveling, whether by motorcycle, car, on foot, or by other means, unexpected situations are always just around the corner. That's part of the beauty of travel; it allows us to test ourselves and step out of our comfort zone. The key is to be ready when the unexpected knocks on our door.

For this reason, in addition to keeping your nerves steady and not panicking, it's useful to carry kits that can literally turn your trip around, whether it's a vacation by car or motorcycle, or an outdoor experience immersed in nature.

Enerpump, for Road Trips

Traveling by car or motorcycle gives you a sense of unparalleled freedom. The dream of every traveler, at least once in their life, is to take a great road trip, allowing them to savor not only the destination but also the intermediate stops (and the adventures that come with them).

One of the most common unexpected situations involves tires: an unexpected pressure change or the need to inflate them because you are tackling different surfaces (e.g., off-road to the paved road) is almost a daily occurrence. In this case, you can stop at a tire shop, but you need to find one and get there, or you can do it yourself.

Inflating tires is very simple, so if you bring a portable air compressor with you, you're all set!

The important thing is to have a pocket-sized tool that fits not only in your suitcase but also in your backpack or motorcycle bag, something lightweight that solves the problem on the fly.

ENERPUMP is the new product we have designed to help those who are always on the go to face the road serenely. It is a portable air compressor with a compact design and a maximum pressure of 150 PSI. It can fully inflate tires in less than 1 minute, and the precision sensor allows you to check the pressure during inflation.

Additionally, it features a 4000mAh battery, making it a super powerful power bank for charging electronic devices, as well as an LED flashlight to help you see better if inflation needs to be done at night.

Multifunction Radio, for Any Emergency

Maybe you haven't thought about it, but having a radio with you that allows you to keep communications active even in an emergency is crucial. Especially when engaging in outdoor activities, having a multifunction tool that allows you to communicate and charge technological devices becomes vitally important.

In this case, there are 3 different radios:

  • ER200

  • ER250

  • ER300.

The ER200 is a radio equipped with an AM/FM receiver, an LED flashlight, and an electronic device that can charge. The ER200 itself is rechargeable with the dynamo or the built-in solar panels. It also has an integrated Morse code SOS function.

The ER250, in addition to all the features of the ER200, also has Bluetooth and a 130 Lumen Cree® LED flashlight.

Finally, the ER300 includes the ability to charge not only via dynamo and solar panels but also via rechargeable batteries thanks to a lithium battery that guarantees up to 25 hours of use. It also includes an integrated ultrasonic dog whistle, useful for search and rescue teams.

Outdoor Emergency Kits

You would never leave for an overseas vacation without insurance, right?

Well, if you're planning an outdoor vacation, whether it's hiking, camping, climbing, or mountaineering, don't forget to bring your "emergency insurance." We know how important it is to have ready-made, lightweight, and versatile kits that meet your needs while enjoying the beauty of nature.

So we created 2 emergency kits: one for orientation, the other as a lifesaver for extreme adventures.

The orientation kit consists of a case with:

  • 2 XT30 walkie-talkies

  • 2 sets of rechargeable batteries

  • a flashlight

  • a whistle with a compass

  • a USB charging cable.

It is a perfect kit for adventure-seeking hikers, allowing you to stay in touch with group members up to a distance of 6 km, thanks to the transceivers, and also to have a flashlight and a whistle with a compass for autonomous orientation.

The lifesaver kit also consists of a case with:

  • 2 XT30 walkie-talkies

  • 2 sets of rechargeable batteries

  • the ER300 emergency power bank

  • USB connection cables

  • 4 thermal blankets.

This kit is designed for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who are guided by adventure, but it can also be useful for those who want to spend a few days camping.
