Introducing the World’s First 2P Solar Basecamp Tent, With an Integrated Solar Panel, Leds, and Control Panel
Story
After many expeditions of having drained batteries, forgetting power banks and only a headlamps, Summit Ridge Co. decided to do something about it.
The Solution
Harness sustainable energy from the sun using solar technology. This 4 season tent has integrated LED lights that make it easy to illuminate your night by the press of a button.
Ultra-durable exo skeleton design keeps you protected from some of the harshest conditions on earth.
Polyurethane (PU) coating is commonly used to make tent fabrics waterproof. It creates a protective layer on the fabric surface that prevents water from seeping through.
Silicone treatment, on the other hand, involves infusing a silicone-based solution into the fabric. This treatment creates a hydrophobic layer that enhances the fabric’s water resistance.
The exoskeleton design allows you to pitch the tent up very quickly. Once you clip in the living area the first time, the clips can stay attached for fast deployment.
FIRST IN PITCH COMPETITION
On our first successful campaign, we asked our loyal backers what they would like us to innovate on our 2nd campaign. This is what we got. 53% said that they would like an innovative solar tent.
We entered the Dragon V1 into a pitch competition hosted by LaunchBoom. Out of 250 applicants Summit Ridge Co. received 1st!
No limitations to where this tent can go. Whether it’s a 2-day trip or a 2-month expedition, this tent will serve its purpose of offering sustainable energy in the backcountry when you need it.
Instead of traditional vestibules, the dragon tent is an all-in-one structure making the vestibule a part of the tent itself.
Double Wall Design
It features a double-walled construction, with an inner tent made of breathable, lightweight nylon and a tough, weather-resistant outer shell made of durable ripstop nylon.
This design provides excellent protection from the elements, while also allowing for superior ventilation to help prevent condensation buildup inside the tent.
Whether you’re tackling a rugged mountain ascent, or camping out in the backcountry during the dead of winter, the Dragon V1 is the perfect tent for the job.
