Have you tried Prime yet? 
We've found the benefits of Prime membership well outweigh the costs and we've been members for a few years now. 
It's almost tailored to those who enjoy life on the road. 
Getting Amazon items quickly (Sometimes the same day!) and delivered to a local locker, when we are on the road, has saved us a quite a few times.  Prime Video, Kindle Lending Library and Amazon Music keep us entertained on the road and the Unlimited Cloud Photo Storage keeps all our precious memories backed up, all included in our Prime Membership.
If you've not tried it, just click on the banner to try it for free.
  

Campervan Tech

Here are links to the tech products we talk about in our video.

If you're looking for an out of the box WiFi booster this package from Alfa includes all you need.

This low cost 4G MiFi unit is what we use to get Internet when there is no WiFi hotspot.  It's unlocked so can be used with any SIM card.

You can check out all the ways we have looked at and tried for getting internet in our van on our Mobile Internet page here

We use an older 7" Nexus tablet in the van for Spotify, movies and other Apps, but this up to date 7" Fire Tablet is a great value for money alternative, 

Linked to our Android tablet the sound quality of our Bose Bluetooth Speaker ​is phenomenal and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it
Picture

Our Maxview Satellite dish lets us pick up UK TV well into Mainland Europe and means we can always keep up to date with News and Weather to help us plan our trip. 
Picture

Linked to our Satellite dish the Humax FreeSat Recorder Box makes it a doddle to pick up TV with a full EPG, Netflix, iPlayer and other catch up TV.  The 500 GB hard drive can record 2 channels simultaneously. If you need more space check out our video on upgrading the hard-drive.

We use this 2 way radios to keep in touch.  Remember you do need a licence from ofcom https://www.ofcom.org.uk/manage-your-licence/radiocommunication-licences/business-radio/amend/online-licensing-services - we use the Simple UK Licence at £85 for 5 years. They also need to be connected to a computer to program them.

A Wifi CCTV camera allows us to record our journeys, adds security and we can monitor the outside of the van either from our connected tablet inside or via our phones when were away.

We added this DAB radio receiver to massively expand the number and quality of the radio stations we can listen to both on the move and on site.
