For any homeowner, a well-manicured lawn is a staple of the homeowning experience. Believe it or not, lawn mowing isn’t exactly straightforward and there’s a lot to it — that’s why a mowing 101 guide is so helpful. Of course, the right tools can make the job so much easier, which is why it’s good to keep a finger on the pulse of all of the best lawnmower deals.

Then, there is the choice to go with a gas mower or an electric one. If electric and efficient is more your style, Amazon is offering the Greenworks 40V 2-in-1 Push Lawn Mower, with battery and charger, for $230. That’s $69 off the normal price, and it includes free Prime shipping. Can’t beat that, especially when it comes with the accessories you’ll need.

The Greenworks 40V Cordless Electric Push Lawn Mower is a 16-inch system, with a lightweight cutting deck that can handle small to medium-sized yards. Ideally, it can cut up to half an acre effectively, before needing to recharge, which is about 45 minutes of total runtime. It comes with a battery and a charging system, but more are available if you want to pick up spares. A single battery will charge to full in just 120 minutes. The battery works with a host of additional tools from Greenworks if you ever pick up any other power tools or have other batteries available.

The lawnmower has a single-lever 5-position height adjustment system so you can fine-tune how high, or low, the cut truly is. It’s an easy push-button start system, and it needs no gas, no oil, and will not produce any emissions. It’s both more efficient and safer for the environment. It produces up to 50% less noise and vibrations than a gas mower, too. The “2-in-1” feature means it can be used to mulch and has a rear bag, which is also detachable if you don’t want to use it.

Normally $300, Amazon is offering the Greenworks 40V 16-inch Cordless Electric Push Lawn Mower, with accessories, for $229 plus free Prime shipping and delivery. That’s $69 or 23% off the full price, and it’s one of the better deals we’ve seen in a long while. If you’ve been on the fence about grabbing an electric system, this deal might throw you over. It can get those weeds creeping up the wood panels, too!

When temperatures drop, and the wind starts howling, heat loss while winter camping can quickly turn a cozy night into a frosty one. The secret to keeping your tent warm isn't about getting the most high-tech gear. Actually, it lies in understanding how heat escapes. From the cold ground beneath you to the sneaky drafts around your tent, each type of heat loss plays a role in how well your tent holds onto warmth. In this article, we'll explore the various ways that heat can sneak away from your tent, as well as how to insulate a tent for winter camping.
Types of heat loss while winter camping and how to avoid them

There are several ways your body and tent lose heat: conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation. Here's how to avoid all four:
Ways to avoid heat loss due to conduction
Conduction occurs when heat is transferred from your body to colder surfaces, like the ground. To prevent heat loss through conduction, focus on insulating surfaces that come into direct contact with your body.

Finding somewhere to do "the doo" is one of the dirty little not-so-secret secrets of vanlifing and overlanding. There are really only three options for toileting: Find a public restroom, devise an in-vehicle solution, or, make like a true outdoorsperson, and get it done in nature (à la the traditional cathole) the way the camp gods intended. If you're the sort of fellah who likes roughing it in the wild, the third option is probably the one for you. That's where AirPot comes in.

It's an ultra-compact inflatable toilet that packs down to about the size of a traditional water bottle and weighs a little over a pound. That's more portable than almost any other on-the-go bathroom solution you're likely to find anywhere, so it's ideal for just about any outdoor adventure, including day hikes, overnighters, and car campers.
