CampByMe is Australia's brand new camping show, airing every Sunday at 4:30PM on Channel 9 and 9NOW. Adventure Gear Australia is a proud major sponsor — and in Episode 3, the crew headed to the wild west coast of the Eyre Peninsula for marine encounters, coastal dunes, and remote adventure. The featured product? The GME TX6165XO UHF CB Handheld Radio in Blaze Orange.

GME TX6165XO — The UHF CB Radio Built for the Outdoors

When you're heading into remote country, communication can be a matter of safety. The GME TX6165XO is purpose-built for Australian conditions — offering reliable, clear communication whether you're coordinating a beach landing on the Eyre Peninsula, managing a 4WD convoy on corrugated tracks, or keeping in touch across a large campsite.

The TX6165XO comes in a distinctive Blaze Orange finish — and as Brett noted on the show, that's no accident. When you're out in the scrub, on a beach, or in thick bush, you need to find your gear quickly. The safety orange colour makes this radio nearly impossible to lose, and it doubles as a visual safety signal if you ever need to be spotted.

Built Tough — Rated IP67

Fully dustproof and submersible in up to one metre of water for 30 minutes, the TX6165XO is built to handle Australia's harshest environments without flinching. From the coastal dunes of the Eyre Peninsula to dusty outback tracks, it takes a beating and keeps working.

80 Channels. 30 Hours. 5 Watts.

With 80 UHF channels including Channel 40 (road communication) and Channel 18 (4WD emergency), the TX6165XO covers all the frequencies you need. A switchable 5W/1W output lets you extend your range when required, or conserve battery when conditions allow — delivering up to 30 hours of use on a single charge.

LED Torch + VOX Hands-Free

The built-in LED torch is a practical touch anyone who has fumbled for gear in the dark will appreciate. VOX hands-free operation means you can stay in contact without taking your hands off the wheel or your tools. Compact, rugged, and packed with the features that matter most to Australian adventurers.

CampByMe is Australia's brand new camping show, airing every Sunday at 4:30PM on Channel 9 and 9NOW. Adventure Gear Australia is a proud major sponsor — and in Episode 2, the team brought something truly special to the fire: The Jack Sack by Donkey Long Tong.

"Stories worth telling are told around a camp fire."

The Jack Sack — The World's First Leather Fire Tool Bag

The Jack Sack isn't just a bag. It's a statement about how seriously you take your fire. Handmade in Cape Town, South Africa at a small workshop known simply as The Barn, every Jack Sack is assembled by hand with the same craftsmanship that drives all Donkey Long Tong products.

The name comes from the male Donkey — called a Jack. Tough, strong, humble, and forever hard working. For centuries, Donkeys have carried saddlebags of goods across the globe. The Jack Sack carries yours.

What's Inside the Full Jack Sack

• 1× Handmade Genuine Leather Bag
• 1× Donkey Long Tong 80cm — the longest and strongest BBQ tong, straight out of South Africa
• 1× Donkey Tong 69cm
• 1× Donkey Blower
• 1× Donkey Paddle
• 1× Surprise in the lower pocket

Built to Last Around Any Fire

The tongs are precision-crafted from 304-grade stainless steel — rust resistant and built for sustained heat — with A-grade white oak handles finished in a UV and VOC-free treatment that keeps everything food-safe. Solid brass rivets pressed with a multi-ton press create a bond for life. A 3mm stainless bottle opener doubles as a sliding lock to keep the tongs closed when not in use.

The full Jack Sack is wrapped, boxed, then wrapped again in kraft paper — because the fire deserves it.

CampByMe is Australia's brand new camping show, airing every Sunday at 4:30PM on Channel 9 and 9NOW. Adventure Gear Australia is a proud major sponsor - and in Episode 1, the team headed out bush with the Kulkyne Mega Swag. Here's why it's one of the most impressive swags we've ever tested.

Why the Kulkyne Mega Swag Continues to Impress

At Adventure Gear, we've spent years testing camping equipment in real Australian conditions, and few products receive as much attention around the campsite as the Kulkyne Mega Swag range.

Built from thick, high-quality canvas, the Mega Swag is designed to withstand the elements while providing a comfortable and dry place to rest after a day of adventure. Whether you're exploring the Flinders Ranges, heading off on a 4WD trip, or setting up camp for the weekend, these swags deliver the perfect combination of durability and comfort.

One of the biggest advantages of the Mega Swag is the spacious interior. With plenty of room to move around, you won't experience the claustrophobic feeling often associated with traditional swags. An internal storage shelf provides a convenient place to keep clothing and personal items organised and off the floor.

Ventilation is another standout feature, with multiple airflow options allowing you to adjust the swag to suit the conditions. Large doors provide easy access from all sides and can also be converted into annexes, creating additional sheltered space around your camp.

For those wanting extra convenience, an optional LED light and power bank setup can be added, providing lighting inside the swag while keeping your phone charged throughout your adventure.

The thoughtful design extends outside too, with a practical boot bag providing a dry, secure location to store muddy boots and shoes away from your sleeping area.

Available in four sizes - 950, 1100, 1300 and the massive 1500 - there's a Mega Swag to suit solo travellers, couples and those wanting maximum room. You can also choose between a comfortable 70mm foam mattress or upgrade to the luxurious 100mm mattress for an even better night's sleep.

To take comfort to the next level, pair your Mega Swag with the matching stretcher. The elevated sleeping position combined with the thick mattress creates one of the most comfortable camping setups available, making it easy to wake refreshed and ready for the next day's adventure.

After years of use by the Adventure Gear team, the Kulkyne Mega Swag remains one of our most trusted and recommended camping products. It's rugged, practical, incredibly comfortable, and always a conversation starter wherever we camp.
