Yes Softguy, that is my view too.

However my 3 like to watch a short programme, say Kung Fu Panda, of 20 mins before bed when camping. Also Mr F likes to check out things to do, Sunday carvery's etc. It does keep them all happy.

and all is well

a 13a high capacity mains charger too would be handy many camp sites have random sockets in wash houses



with a few powerbanks knocking about

couple of these

We have a Jackery Giant power pack to charge our phones, charge it up at home before you go. It can charge my iphone about 4 times.
