Yeah, I know they’re calling the more expensive ones compact routers these days. I have a Bosch that I use for work. It has 1 1/4 torque peak, a 1/4” collet, I have the plunge base for it and 40 or 50 bits. But since I bought it 5 years ago it’s a “laminate trimmer.” Not that I have ever used it to trim laminate but it’s just the class of tools that small routers fit into. Or, used to. To most any guy that’s been a woodworker for long enough that’s called a laminate trimmer.
10 LED interior lights for the RV. Sounds boring, but really, I go from 10 W to 1.5 W bulbs with the same output of light. Weirdest thing, they're encased in what feels like clear silicon. The previous bulbs put our a lot of heat and I don't like hot light bulbs in a thin skinned trailer.
I'd bet that if you peeled that silicone off of a bulb, you'd find that the bulb actually puts out a sort of lavender light, without the silicone...
Also, something that you might consider about what you have packed in the RV while traveling, is can you afford to lose it in a crash? Even a simple crash in that thing will result in your stuff being lost. Maybe not everything, but when they are cleaning up after a crash, they aren't too concerned about the sentimental value of what they are tossing in the trash.
^^ Everything I own is invested in the stock market. That's a much scarier proposition than the contents of our 5th wheel!
I'm at about 80% conservative, wife's 401k is about 60% conservative. Yes, everything we have in the 5th wheel can be replaced. Nothing of value in here.

Got a pistol kit in the mail for $275. Group buy lower for $35. Kalopsia was kind enough to give me a carry handle sight.

eta* after taking the pic I noticed I had the carry handle sight too far back and moved it forward
