Traveling in a self-contained RV is an amazing way to journey — but anyone who’s wrestled a large, broad-sided vehicle for hours down the open road while being buffeted by wind knows the end of the day is likely to yield a sore neck, arms and shoulders. That’s why you should pack DNA Vibe’s Jazz Band Live, a U.S.-made Intelligent Light Therapy device that can be used to promote healing. Highly portable and easy to position on joints, back or other areas of the body, this patented wearable builds on proven, conventional FDA-approved light therapies with four separate programable modes that increase circulation and offer relief from pain, inflammation and injuries: red light therapy, infrared light, pulsed microvibration and magnetic signaling. You can even keep it safely strapped to your back, shoulder or other painful area while you drive.

Based in New Jersey, Dink Buddy makes a portable, packable pickleball net that’s an ideal way to get some exercise and destress once you reach your campsite. Even though the net meets height requirements, the 6-foot Original Dink Buddy comes in at 6 feet by 19 inches, weighs only 3.1 pounds and fits into a backpack. There’s an 11-foot Dink Buddy XL that’s also ultracompact. The net’s aluminum frame was created to expand and collapse in less than a minute. You can even choose the color of mesh to match your RV’s exterior decor: black, white, indigo, red, orange or pink. Paddles, balls and accessories are also available.

You’ve just settled down into the passenger seat with a freshly brewed chai latte when there’s a sudden bump in the road. Your cinnamon-scented beverage is now everywhere. To add insult to injury, the paper towel roll you reach for slips from your hands and unwinds the entire length of your camper. Time to upgrade to Take a Roll, a nifty plastic paper towel protector/dispenser made in the United States that fits a single roll, has a handle for gripping and a slot that keeps the roll from unspooling all at once. You can tear off the necessary number of sections you need, get a fresh latte at your next stop and change into a dry sweater before heading off again. Take a Roll comes in five fun colors: Blue Ultra, Rocket Red, Mushroom, Spring and Graphite.

When it comes to liquid refreshment, the trend in alternatives to alcoholic beverages is growing, and that’s good news for drivers. “According to [UK-based] International Wine and Spirits Record, the adult non-alcoholic beverage market is currently valued at $13 billion and is projected to quadruple by 2027,” said Sean Goldsmith, CEO and Co-founder, The Zero Proof.

Now you can safely enjoy an impromptu afternoon picnic en route with a delicious, non-alcoholic wine, or savor a cocktail or two at dinner without worrying about a headache that will keep you from getting the rest you need before settling behind the wheel in the morning. Zero Proof offers a wide selection of delicious alcohol-free wines, mixers, liqueurs, gin, whiskey, bourbon, rum, vodka, tequila and mezcal perfect for stocking your RV’s bar. Visit the website for recipes, including espresso martinis, Mexican hot chocolate, mojitos and old fashioneds.

Whether spending long hours behind the wheel or in the passenger seat as chief navigator, a good nights’ sleep is crucial to staying safe on the road and enjoying the journey. Treat yourself to a pillow from Eli & Elm, with styles to suit your personal sleep preferences, whether that’s front, side or back (there’s even a pregnancy pillow). Latex or memory foam filling materials are OEKO-TEX certified, so you can rest assured you’re not snuggling into harmful substances. And, if you find your pillow is too firm, you can unzip the pillow to remove some of the noodle filling and adjust the loft to your preferred level of softness. There’s a removable cover for washing, plus a five-year warranty, free shipping and free returns. The company also makes weighted comforters to help reduce nighttime movement and aid in deeper sleep.

The breeze coursing in through your open window, or the air conditioning and heat keeping you comfortable as you drive are all ways your skin can become dried out, stressed and tired-looking. Rehydrate and restore your natural luminosity with high-end skincare products from EDOBIO. Celebrating botanical ingredients and beauty rituals dating to Japan’s Edo period (1603—1868), EDOBIO melds soothing natural ingredients with state-of-the-art Japanese biotechnology in a line of ultra-luxurious soaps, masks, creams, serums and toners that nourish, hydrate and renew. There’s even a gently-scented Aroma Floreeze Spray to keep your bed and bathroom linens fresh and sanitized. Stock your RV bathroom with EDOBIO Vegan Black Soap, Intensive Hydration Serum, Glowing Night Gel Mask and Moisture Lock Cream, and let the highway winds take you where they will. We bet you’ll look great when you get there.
