Traditional coolers are great if you don’t mind having to drain and replenish the ice constantly. Let’s be real, though. Personally, the amount of effort that it takes to haul and save ice on my camping trips is enough to make me want to choose non-perishables just so I don’t have to deal with the hassle. Fortunately, it’s no longer the Stone Age, so you have to check out the brand-new cooler from Anker SOLIX if you’re sick and tired of traditional coolers.

Anker SOLIX just released the EverFrost 2 Electric Cooler, which is a high-tech cooler that runs like a fridge on battery power. At a glance, the specifications look to be pretty impressive. You can choose between a 23L and 40L Single Zone capacity, or even a 58L Dual Zone. With a few buttons, you can set the temperature range anywhere between -20°F to +20°F. The battery is 288Wh, but it can be expandable to 575Wh with two batteries for the 40L and the 58L models. Charge this baby up in 3.5 hours with a 95W power adapter or car socket, 100W solar input, or 60W USB-C input. In a single charge, you can expect to have up to 52 hours of cooling. If that’s not enough, just pack an extra battery. A second one will get you up to about 104 hours.

The EverFrost 2 Electric Cooler is currently available for preorder until March 6, and if you snap up this deal now, they are offering $300 off and a free road trip kit to early buyers. The official launch for the 40L and 58L is set for March 7, at which point the EverFrost 2 will be available for general purchase.

Camp cooking made easier with these tips

I don't know about you, but when I dream of a relaxing vacation in nature, I want to do as little chores as humanly possible. Camping isn't exactly the most convenient of activities, so I like to prepare in advance and do everything possible to make it easier, especially in the food department.

It's not always easy to cook over a fire or keep your food fresh, and if you don't bring disposable plates or dishes with you, it can be a huge hassle to clean up. It's by no means a reason to avoid nature altogether, but I have learned a few tricks here or there to make the process better. Here are some of my favorite food hacks for camping that will make your life easier and your trip more enjoyable.

Discover the world of luxury glamping: A step up from traditional camping

Learn what luxury glamping is and if it's for you

Big Sur glamping

Glamping, or glamorous camping, is an elevated outdoor experience that often provides more comfort than traditional tent camping. Furnished tents, yurts, cabins, treehouses, or even Airstreams qualify as glamping, and many glamping experiences offer basic amenities like real beds, electricity, and bathrooms.

So many people (myself included) love being out in nature in this way, so I was excited to learn about a phenomenon called luxury glamping. Here's everything you need to know about it.

5 clever ways to use paracord on your next camping trip

Tie up the loose ends at the camping site with these 5 paracord uses

Purple and green twisted paracord

Sometimes, the simplest tools are the most effective, especially when camping. I've found that paracord is one of those things that most people have at the bottom of their bags, but do you really know how to use it to its fullest potential? Originally designed for parachutes, paracord is lightweight, durable, and (in my humble opinion) essential for any camping trip. Like with a camping knife, using paracord does require some skill, but once you know the right knots, it will change your game. The next time you're in the wild, try one of these paracord purposes.

Paracord ideas for shelter and weather protection
You never know when you'll need a little extra length to your tent guy lines. Paracord is just the thing. Just cut the amount you need and use a taut-line hitch for adjustable tension.
