Eau Claire, Wisconsin - June 13, 2023 —
The Dragon V1 Solar Tent is the world’s first 2P solar basecamp tent from outdoor equipment and adventure company Summit Ridge Co. It is live on Kickstarter and a breakout global crowdfunding success story, having raised 4 times the initial raise goal in under two weeks.
With a vision to enhance the backcountry camping experience, Summit Ridge Co. has developed a range of cutting-edge camping gear that combines advanced technology, sleek design, and unparalleled functionality. The days of drained batteries, forgotten power banks, and only a headlamp for light are over— the Dragon V1 is a breakthrough design featuring integrated solar panels, LEDs, and a control panel.
“The creation of the Dragon V1 stemmed from the valuable feedback of our loyal backers during our previous campaign in 2022. When we asked them about their desires for our next project, the overwhelming response was a durable 4-season tent,” says founder and CEO DeShawn Gilles on the inspiration behind the project. “As a company focused on integrating technology into outdoor gear, we recognized the importance of addressing the power needs of modern adventurers. We understood firsthand the frustration of running out of battery while exploring, whether for drones, cameras, GPS devices, or transmitters. That's why we ensured the Dragon V1 is equipped with solar capabilities, guaranteeing a reliable power source for all your essential devices.”
The Summit Ridge tent is a game-changer in the camping industry and is designed to withstand extreme weather conditions while offering a compact and easy-to-assemble solution for campers. Built with high-quality materials and innovative features such as integrated solar panels, built-in power banks, a heated sleeping pad, and more— this tent caters to the needs of modern adventurers.
“Our Dragon V1 stands out as a superior solution, surpassing anything currently available on the market. What sets it apart is the seamless integration of an expandable solar panel system, making it the only fully packable tent with this innovative feature. Additionally, our tent boasts integrated LED lights on each door, enhancing convenience and functionality. We take pride in our utility patent, which protects the unique integration of these cutting-edge technologies. This groundbreaking design makes the Dragon V1 the first of its kind, setting a new standard for camping gear,” adds Gilles.
