So I had been looking for a way to make coffee without electric since we don’t have it yet. This is the solution that I was able to find: The Avigator Coffee Maker plugs into the cigarette lighter in your car. I have been using a percolator coffee pot on the camp stove, but the wind here gets so bad at times that stove won’t stay lit.
This makes one cup of coffee at a time and the instructions claim you can have coffee in about 3 minutes. That is a lie! It actually takes at least 10 minutes. But I get my coffee so that is a plus. It does work well and the only thing I don’t like about it is that it does a take a little bit to get your cup of coffee in the morning.
However, that said, it is a hot cup of coffee. It has a permanent filter in it when it comes that you just rinse or wash between uses. It holds a little more than the cup that comes with it so I recommend using the cup to fill the water to make sure you don’t over fill the cup. I imagine that would make a mess and in your car no less.
The cup is a decent size too. It holds a little more than a regular coffee cup. So all in all I am happy with this coffee maker. The only down side I find to it is the time it takes to make the coffee but everything else is as described.
If you would like to see or order this coffee maker you can do so on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/3ok9I51
I would recommend this maker for camping trips or the like. It works well and puts up with my abuse so it has to be good.
Have a great day!

That’s great you can use this coffee maker without electricity. It also looks nice!
A portable coffee maker?! I have to have one of these. I can see us using it on long car trips instead of purchasing watery coffee at a truck stop.
This is perfect for coffee fans. I need one of these for a fountain diet coke 😉
How handy is this product? I need to get one for my road trips.
So convenient for road trips and picnics! And I’ll bet it makes great coffee!

I need to get one of these so I am fully stocked with coffee on our camping trips! 10 min for coffee isn’t bad at all.
It’s great to hear that it’s a handy solution for making coffee without electricity, especially for camping trips. The permanent filter and decent cup size are definitely convenient features. Although it takes a little longer than claimed to make the coffee, it’s good to know that it still gets the job done. Your recommendation and Amazon link are much appreciated.

This sounds convenient for campers, but 10 minutes to wait for coffee, first thing in the morning, is a long time for coffee fanatics like me! My eyes don’t fully open till I get that first cup!
