New Hitch Biker Carries Bicycles with No
Loss of Towing Capacity

The patented rack fits Class I, II, III, & IV trailer hitches, carries up to two bikes and mounts in seconds.

ANW Devices Announces New Product for High-speed Internet in Recreation Vehicles

ANW Devices, a company dedicated to high speed data communication for over the road users, introduced its iAntenna™ product to the recreation vehicle industry at RVIA’s Louisville show.

The iAntenna™ product is an electronics device for connecting vehicles such as motor homes to wireless highspeed internet connections found in campgrounds and truck stops. The iAntenna™ product enables travelers to use cost effective high-speed Wi-Fi internet connections while at truck stops, RV parks and thousands of coffeehouses, bookstores and print shops. An on dash signal gauge keeps Wi-Fi signal strength information at arms length while a roof top unit pulls in signals from over a quarter of a mile away.

Two full time RVers, Tom and Barbara Cambroto, used ANW’s first prototype to establish a connection with a hot spot in an RV park 1200 feet away from their location in Desert Hot Springs. Barbara stated “The connection is so fast and before we had the iAntenna we never knew it was there. I can’t imagine life with out it!”

ANW developed the iAntenna™ product in response to requests for a better way for RVers to connect to these Wi-Fi networks and has standing orders from Phoenix area RV dealerships. Several large RV manufacturers have agreed to pre-wire coaches while others have expressed an interest in factory installing iAntenna™ in their products as a standard feature.

  New Adapter Converts Non-Compliant Propane Tanks Into Compressed Air Tanks

Intromark Inc. has introduced Propane to Air™, an adapter for propane tanks that converts them into compressed air storage containers. The product allows the user to "recycle" older propane tanks with or without an overfill protection device (OPD), a feature required by Federal National Fire and Safety Standards.

Propane to Air™ provides an alternative use for older propane tanks. The product eliminates the hassle and expense of taking non-compliant propane tanks to landfills and paying a disposal charge. Once converted, the compressed air can be used to inflate tires, blow dust and dirt off surfaces or complete any task that requires a blast of air. And, by reducing the amount of waste taken to landfills, the user would also be helping the environment.

Propane to Air™ features an adapter that connects directly to the tank. After purging the propane completely from the tank, the user can attach this product and fill the tank using any standard tire inflation nozzle. Suggested retail price is $19.95. Each Propane to Air kit includes the adapter with gauge, 5-ft. hose and a tire chuck.

Intromark Incorporated, a new-product licensing and marketing firm, is seeking marketers and retailers that supply propane tanks, gas, or accessories to their customers. Intromark Incorporated can also offer companies access to an ongoing source of patented and un-patented inventions matched to specific areas of interest. Access to these inventions is free to companies that manufacture or market new products.

Blue Ox® introduces SwayPro™ The latest in Weight Distributing technology

Blue Ox introduces a weight distributing hitch that offers the most user friendly technology on the market today.

SwayPro eliminates trailer sway under heavy loads, high winds and rutted roads utilizing four points of friction- just set the amount of control you require for your individual cargo or driving conditions. “The self latching tongue bracket makes the SwayPro much easier to operate than traditional methods”, according to Blue Ox President Jay Hesse. The bracket lock automatically secures into place and releases with a simple push of a lock pin.

The SwayPro also features a head angle that can be conveniently adjusted by a thumbscrew according to the amount of weight distribution desired. It is also available for four tongue weights: BXW0550 (550lbs), BXW0750 (750lbs), BXW1000 (1000lbs), and BXW (1500lbs). SwayPro™ was successfully tested to a Class IV (15,000GVWR) rating according to the appropriate portions of the SAE J684 testing procedure. The SwayPro is powder coated to prevent the unit from rusting, corroding or chipping. The grease from the unit is captured inside the springbar head socket to help keep the outside of the unit and the user “grease-free”.
