As we approach the 2024 RVing season, many RV owners often look for enhancements to make their road trips more comfortable and enjoyable. Wilkins RV has an almost endless selection of RV Accessories, popular upgrades and gadgets sure to fill every RV owners wish list. Here are just a few ideas.
SMART RV SYSTEMS:
Integrating smart technology into your RV allows you to control various aspects remotely. This can include smart thermostats, security systems, lighting, and even voice-activated assistants.
ADDED SECURITY:
If you want security, a system is a small price to pay. Many RV owners choose to set up their security by adding motion detector lights. When motion is detected in the region around your rig, the lights come on and stay on for a period of time. Lights should be placed all around your camper as well as at the door and the corners of your rig. RV security can include alarms can as well. Just remember, if you are in the woods you may also scare your neighbors if the siren starts blaring.
SOLAR PANELS
HERE COMES THE SUN… One huge step you can take toward making your RV greener is to install a solar power system. Most RVs have enough roof space for at least a handful of solar panels. These, combined with a bank of lithium batteries and an inverter, can power your whole RV for quite some time without the use of grid power or a generator. Installing solar panels on the roof can provide a renewable source of energy, allowing you to charge your devices and run appliances without relying solely on electrical hookups.
RV GPS NAVIGATION
Investing in a specialized GPS system designed for RVs can help you navigate routes that are suitable for your vehicle’s size and weight, avoiding low bridges or narrow roads.
ENHANCED ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS
Upgrade your RV’s entertainment system with larger TVs, better sound systems, and even outdoor entertainment setups. Streaming devices and satellite TV options can keep you entertained on the road.
UPGRADED SEATING AND BEDDING
Replace your RV’s stock furniture with more comfortable seating and bedding options. Memory foam mattresses, reclining chairs, and ergonomic furniture can make a significant difference.
UPGRADED APPLIANCES
Is the kitchen in your RV, just not quite there? Consider upgrading your kitchen and bathroom appliances for more efficient and modern options. This could include a convection microwave, energy-efficient refrigerator, or a tankless water heater.
PORTABLE WI-FI AND SIGNAL BOOSTERS
Stay connected on the road by investing in portable Wi-Fi devices and signal boosters. This ensures you have a reliable internet connection even in remote areas.
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Upgrade exterior lighting with LED lights for better visibility and energy efficiency. Motion-activated lights can also enhance security around your RV.
RV AWNING ROOMS
Expand your living space with awning rooms that attach to your RV’s awning, providing extra sheltered space for outdoor activities.
BEEF UP YOUR LOCKS
Most RVs come equipped with a universal keying system, which means you can open other RVs with your keys and vice-versa. Keyless entry locks have become a very popular upgrade. There are a variety of brands available and each offers a chance to keep your valuables safe. Remember RV security begins at your door.
INSTALL LOW-FLOW WATER FIXTURES
Reduce the amount of water you use when camping by installing low-flow water fixtures in your sinks and shower. These give you a more eco friendly RV, yes, but they also help extend the amount of time you can spend boondocking by stretching your fresh water reserves.
SWITCH TO LED LIGHTING
LED lights will help significantly reduce the amount of power you use on lighting up your rig. Switching to LED lighting is actually as simple as changing to LED bulbs, making this a very easy change to make.
