Top Overlanding Gear Highlights from Overland Expo Mountain West 2026

Overland Expo Mountain West in Loveland, Colorado, brought together some of the best new releases and practical gear for campervan builds and off-grid adventures. We walked the floor to check out what manufacturers and custom builders are adding to their lineups.

Here are the standout brands and products featured at this year's show.

1. DEVOS Outdoor: Versatile Off-Grid Camp Lighting

Proper camp lighting makes setup, maintenance, and relaxation significantly easier after dark. DEVOS Outdoor showcased two distinct lighting systems:

• LightRanger 2000: An upgraded version of their 1200 model, delivering 2,000 lumens with integrated Bluetooth control for white, amber, and red light settings. It extends up to 10 feet high, keeping the entire campsite illuminated while elevating bugs away from your face.

• Mini Companion: A compact, magnetic lantern designed for tent interiors, working under vehicle chassis, or emergency storage. It features a wave-on/wave-off motion sensor, eliminating the need to search for buttons in the dark.
