Oztent’s new King Kokoda sits within the new HotSpot chair
range and is rated to 150kg. An Oztent HotSpot is a heating
pouch that slots into any of the King Kokoda’s four HotSpot
pockets. The HotSpot pouch is warmed by placing it in the
supplied microfibre bag, immersing this in a billy that you bring
to the boil and let simmer for five minutes. The warmed pouch
is then placed in one of the pockets and you’re set for an hour
of warm comfort. The pouch can be used/reheated up to 500
times. The King Kokoda is built tough – heavy-duty steel frame,
solid alloy armrests, comfy padded polyester – and features
adjustable lumbar support. The carry bag stores in the headrest.

IRONMAN 4X4 INSTANT AWNING
Ironman’s popular Instant Awning has been revamped. The
awning’s cam-lock telescopic uprights and supports have
been upgraded and flexible nylon joints have been added to
allow for movement due to strong winds, thus ensuring the
track system doesn’t damage. Velcro pull-over clamps now
make unrolling of the awning faster and easier. Ironman uses
tough 280gsm rip-stop polycotton fabric for durability, and
the stitching is seam-sealed, ensuring the awnings are fully
waterproof. The fabric is also rated to UV50+ sun protection
and the awning is stored inside a 1000-denier waterproof PVC
cover. Other features include an integrated LED light strip
(with strip light dimmer), glow-in-the-dark guy ropes and a
comprehensive installation kit. The Instant Awning is available
in three sizes: 1.4m x 2.5, 2m x 2.5m, and 2.5m x 2.5m.
