Tested out the air pump I got from my wife for my birthday on the pillow that I will be using for the RAGBRAI L.
The pillow is from Big Agnes, Q-Core Delux Pillow. I will probably want to find a pillow case for this to keep in clean and just another layer of protection from sharp objects.
The air pump that I have is a FlexTailGear with light. I figured with hauling my own gear during RAGBRAI L that I wanted to combine as many things as possible. This combo makes perfect sense. An air pump for my pillow and sleeping pad and then turns into a light for the evening hours. From the documentation there is 15 minutes for the air pump feature. When I tested with the pillow in filled up in under a minute. I did not test with my sleeping pad. I will be testing that in the spring when I get a chance to setup all my camping equipment.
I will also be bringing with me (at least) two Anker power banks so I will be able to recharge my tech on the way. One of them is also solar power so I can keep that out on the bike somewhere and have it charging while riding.
So far, still excited for RABGRAI L. To me, seems like I have my camping gear for the most part all situated.
