German outlet T-Online listed six accessories to reduce common risks in camper travel: vehicle and drawbar scales, a gas level gauge, storm lines and pegs for the awning, electrical adapters and extension cables, and warning signs for Italy and Spain. The scales help avoid overloading, the gas gauge prevents unexpected empty cylinders, storm lines protect the awning from wind, adapters and extension cables ensure safe campsite power connections, and the signs make protruding loads visible. Italy and Spain have different requirements for the number of stripes and the border of such signs.

The event annually gathers manufacturers from Europe and beyond. Electrification in the motorhome segment is progressing more slowly than in passenger cars, but demand for solar panels is growing. A photovoltaic awning was proposed as a solution for limited roof space.
