Your best motorhome gadget

4G Wifi, great for films, e-mails, google earth trip researching, finding the next house sit and campsites.
VR headset, awesome wide screen visuals and sound and so small (unlike the pc I plug it into which is enormous). Oh and one can be using whilst the other quietly reads undisturbed.
Bright spark toaster, you can toast on a gas ring, even better you can do one side and have soft and crunchy all in one..Mmmm
Awning carpet, keeps the muck out where it belongs... mostly
Scooter, our wiz about, a Harley D or rocket 3 would be better, but had to call a halt at 8 Tonnes!
I am taking for granted. rear cameras, self levelling, refridgerator, heating and air con.
 
Automatic washing machine

What make and model have you got Robert? If we change our van - and we are currently looking at one with a decent sized garage and with a 230 v socket - we might investigate this. We would want a fairly small and light one.
 
Full air suspension.
Best value has to be 4 quid spent on a fresnel screen on the passenger window makes akward junctions a doddle, don't have to rely on the boss.

I've got one of those peelers Cliffandger. I bought it from the $2 Shop when I first came to NZ 21 years ago , I use it almost every day and it's the best peeler I've ever had. The only trouble is, I almost slice off my finger every time I put the "wire" onto it.
 
Not sure its a gadget but does make awesome wood-fired pizza using those small wooden pellets and packs away into a small travel bag. Ooni Pizza Oven

The “gadget” I use most is my smart phone:

Tells me where the sites/aires are and may let me book them
Tells me what the weather may be like
Can guide me there and tells me if travel delays
I don’t bother with truck radio and use 4g via Bluetooth so can listen to BBC whilst driving in europe
Acts as iPod if nothing on radio
Tells me if MH level
Tells me where the pub is
Acts as torch on way back
Gives me real time OS maps and ideas for walks
Takes good photos and videos (getting better than my SLR) and links photos to position for later reference
Tells me current £€ exchange rate
Can translate languages
Acts as calculator
Acts as clock and alarm clock
Can keep up with e mails if needed

Oh and I can always make a phone call!

Baseball cap with LEDs - easier to use than a head torch
 
Karcher window vac , dries out the screen when cold and the silver screens are not up. But do the base first or it will spray you with water.
