Nice one John, I can't wait to get to that part of the world. Cheers Steve

You missed plenty of good spots towing a van. There is some spectacular coastal scenery along the west side. I reckon the Eyre Peninsula is one of the best kept secrets in Australia...shhhhhhhhhh!

The birds like ya on my property 😂😂😂

Nice one John. Cheers Steve

Great series, really enjoyed coming along for the ride :)

You know it is a nice relaxed trip when you can stop for the day at lunch time :) We stayed at that caravan park in Whyalla in 2002 after spending a couple of weeks free camping out at Fitzgerald Bay. Despite being the middle of winter we took the boat out and did well, getting crabs, squid, garfish, flounder and whiting. Nice area to explore especially down the Eyre Peninsula. One of the many places I would love to get back to.

Hola Jhon,desde Venezuela.

Caramba,eu pesquisei o nome da ponte e cheguei nesse vídeo bastante assustada e curiosa,pois um vídeo rápido de vários lugares que vi,mostrava uma ponte suspensa, construída de forma bem primitiva com uma corda suspensa no ar,com vários esqueletos dos dois lados da ponte, parecendo que a seguravam, então como há tanta coisa estranha nesse mundo cheguei a pensar que era verdade skeleton bridge

Don't think i could live there, too hot & flies would drive me insane

Good job buddy

Coober pedy is 1182 people

See any Mad Max 3 landmarks? Next year will be the 40th anniversary, might be worth rebuilding the Thunderdome (if it wasn't on a NSW set)

Cobber Pedy is a pretty interesting place. I think we stopped in for a couple of nights and had a look around but still missed a lot of the underground stuff. No wonder they filmed Mad Max out there, perfect desolation LOL

You are right about it being another world. That spaceship in town and the weird landscape just out of town feature in the science fiction movie "Pitch Black".

Nice one John, I must get to Woomera, I can't stand rubbish but hey what can ya do? Cheers Steve

I know we have been to Woomera but for wahtever reason we only took one photot and nothing else. Good to get a look at what is there because I have totally forgotten it. Being on the road full time was the best thing we ever did. 5 years touring Australia gave us memories that staying put in suburbia never could. I could not do it now so I am so glad we did it when we had the chance. Len Beadell made some films too that I think can be found on YT.

Now this is a good review. No BS involved and legitimate testing

I was in the Air Training Corps in 7th flight at Claremont. I also had the amazing experience of flying in the Iroquois at Pearce. Blew my mind and inspired me greatly.

Nice one John, I too love naturally occurring steps lol. I love the Flinders, haven't been there since 2018. Can't wait to go back. Cheers Steve

Thanks John we too have just returned to Perth after a trip into the Flinders Ranges and we also stayed at Wilpena and also got confused trying to find our van site. A few clear signs would have helped. It was nice there with all the birds and animals that came around. We explored into the Flinders driving north from there and did some of the long day drives off that road and what a epic drive and views through there. We also stayed at Rawnsley Station and Mount Little Station and explored the Flinders on their properties. Mount Little gives you a folder and map to keep you busy exploring for about 5 hours. Was well worth going to the Flinders it was beautiful. On your way home if you have not been drop into Koonalda Homestead and the Madura Caves for a night camp.

What jumper leads are you using? often they are only rated at 400amps meaning the car wont be receiving the full current

Cool, I think I saw Hahndorf there, hope so, I loved that place, went there many times.

Nice one John. Cheers Steve

Subacribed. Finally a REAL decent review from a down to earth bloke

We were in S.A. for quite a few months but never got to look around that area. Great to see what is there, looking forward to the museum and town video too :)

Nungarin… not Nangarin

thanks for the review john, just purchased 2 of these on special for only $170 each. Happy days..

Nice one John. Cheers Steve

Loved the Murray River, so many fascinating places to explore. YAY! great to see the Proud Mary is still running on the river. Not as impressive as the biggest river boat but we really enjoyed our cruise up the river on her. They used to have a fake paddle wheel on the back, looks like they got rid of that.

Nice one John, those caves are good. Kaz and I went to one and figured we'd do a different one next time we're in the area. Cheers Steve

So, you wanted emergency accommodation and then winge about it. Good one.

I loved South Australia, there are so many old buildings to explore and heaps have been preserved. We stayed in Eden Valley for a while and got to explore a lot of little towns out around the Murray and of ciurse the Barossa as it was just over the hills. Hope to get back one day but not really likely. The old riverboats are amazing. I remember being camped near Renmark and just watching them crusing past us. We did an overnight trip on The Pround Mary, not sure if that is still running or not but it was really worth while. Really loving this series, bringing back so many memories.

Nice one John, Kaz and I swam at Little Blue Lake, in summer 37° outside 10° in the water lol, no people remains at that time. Cheers Steve

I don't remember much about Mt. Gambier except the crater lakes. A pity back then I was using film based stills cameras and didn't take many photos. Seems as though I took nothing there at all for some reason. I think we just passed through in 2001 on our way out to the Great Ocean Road. Good to see a bit more of the place.

Nice one John, Love that area. Cheers Steve

How are you? Have you received my email? I am waiting for your reply Thank you

I love South Australia. So many people dismiss it but we spent about 9 months in Adelaide and had a good chance to explore lots of different areas. The Adelaide hills are terriffic and there is so much more to SA than most people seem to know. A pity you didn't explore the Eyre a bit more because of the van. We loved it there and if you go down those unseald roads you would find awesome places.

The little round 12v plugs are not that commmon but they are quite useful for some applications. Often used to hook up LED lights etc.

That little plug (the yellow one) is often used for batteries for remote control planes etc. I had LiPo batteries that use that plug to charge up for the old Phantom 1 drone. I haven't seen them on much else though.

$3k to boil a kettle seems a bit excessive though LOL I can see it cound possibly be useful for induction cooking and using a coffee brewer etc but for the dough I think I will stick to gas.

Ah, i can finally sit down and catch up with all the videos I have missed while we were on the road. I recently bought one of these things from Aldi (yeah I know Aldi again LOL) and all I have done with it so far is charge it up and stick it in the shed. I don't even know yet what I will use it for. The iTech one certainly has a lot of connections but it looks very heavy from the way you were moving it. Looked at the price of that one and fell off my chair, wow not cheap at all. I got the Aldi one because it was $349 but it is only 600w so much less power and a much smaller battery at 16ah so the itech is 10x the power without being 10x the price. I think I will end up using mostly as a charging station for cameras and phones.

Started the Nissan like it needs needs glowing beforehand,,, otherwise there's an issue with fuel or compression😮

Nice one John, You could easily make a full video on the national motor museum, it took up a chunk of mine lol. Cheers Steve

Why do you need a caravan that size ? Have you not heard less is more ?

Did I hear you say that you went from south of Coolgardie to over the border in the one day?

Nice one John, Cheers Steve

Thanks heading to SA ourselves in a week.

It looks like a good unit mate. Cheers Steve

Thanks for the simple review (way to go Pat)...Have seen this one at the various shows and along with all the others being churned out by just about anyone who thinks they can marry a battery and inverter in a box. Not having anderson sockets is a mistake by Itech. Maybe they will sort that out. These will become bigger and hopefully more efficient for domestic use during power outages...Some Chinese boxes are around the 80kg mark and come on a trolley for household use.

Nice promo for the park. We stayed at the RV rest area by the old church when we were int town but the caravan parks looks good.
