Great vlog and love the gadgets
Hi Thanks ver much for your kind comments and for watching . Best wishes from Poland where we are currently . H and M
Excellent reporting. well done👍👍
Hi thanks for watching and for your kind comments , our best wishes Helen and Martin
For our Motorhome we use Starlink and it’s amazing .
Hi Andrew we are interested in Starlink it looks very interesting. Thanks for watching H and M
love the apple tag great idea to put one on the 😃dog, always worry when Abbey is off lead in case she wonders off
Poppy is serial escaper , half a chance and she’s off chasing birds 😂. It is a worry so the tag gives us a little bit of comfort . Thanks for watching Helen and Martin
Apple AirTags take the No1 spot for us. They look fab. Great video 👍 ATB Dave & Helen
Cheers guys they do provide a degree of confidence . Thanks for watching H and M
Good idea with the air tags
Ah we have been looking into apple air tags x great to know someone else who is using them and recommends xx
Great gadgets x great upload x hope you are both well x
Leanne & Oliver x
Hi guys , yea we thought the tags were a good idea especially for Poppy our little escape artist , but on the kit etc to , so easy to leave or loose stuff. Thanks for watching Helen and Martin
Love all the ideas for your vanning adventures, the polarity checker is a must for being abroad - cheap too so no reason not to have one.
The external fixed antenna is something I’d like to get sorted to help with signal from the van.
Thanks for sharing, Andy and Kim.
Thanks for watchings guys , it was a bit of a challenge as we had not long since done something similar in another VLOG so needed to find items not previously mentioned. 😂. Best wishes Helen and Martin
Yes nice shirt!!
We have three of the five so quite pleased with ourselves as newbies!
Great video guys
Cheers Ian , I bought the shirt in Valencia , probably my favourite all round Spanish City. I am big fan of Juan Mata who came from Valencia to Manchester via Chelsea of course. Thanks for watching best wishes Helen and Martin
Great information guys. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks guys much appreciated . Best wishes Helen and Martin
Some great Gadgets there. Great Vlog Both.
Thanks guys, it's not that long since we did something similar so when the Colab Group selected the title we had to get our thinking caps on. Helen and Martin
Some great gadgets there thank you 👏😁 That was also the best explanation on reverse polarity we have seen, understand it now thank you and will get a tester as plan hopefully lots more European travels 👍
Thanks guys I would say that we needed the reverse polarity adaptors in about 30% of the ‘plugins’ on the last tour, less of a problem on the big modern sites. Thanks for watching best wishes Helen and Martin
Some great recommendations. Hopefully tonight I’ll get the opportunity to catch up on your European trip. My exercise bike is positioned in front of the TV so I can cycle my way through them! That’s one good thing about seeing myself on CZcams, I’m committed to losing my excess weight 😂😂. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks , we only just talking about you 5 mins before this popped up - Martin has put a request in for your Rocky Road recipe. Thanks for watching Helen and Martin
@@HelenandMartinsTreks it’s very easy and always a hit except with Ivan unfortunately he doesn’t like it!
Hi guys great vlog some really handy tips, wish we had that polarity tester going round France it would've given a bit of piece of mind 🙂 The Solar panel direct charge is interesting we will be checking that out may as well make use of the sun (while we have it here) bet your stuff was always well charged in Spain! Great vlog and some really handy tips 😁 Mark and Debs xx
Hi Mark and Debs , we used the direct charger a lot , where as the Powerbank took hours to charge from solar, we found the direct charge point pretty quick. Iphones and Ipads rule the world don't they 😂. Thanks for watching H and M
You didn’t just liken Hermanfest’s best behaved dog to an Octopus 😂 we must definitely look into Apple air tags. Also love the fact that the Jackery solar panel has a USB output. Great video, keep up the great work on the channel 😊
Thanks guys , Pops is more like a beach whale than a Octopuss at the moment , spread out fast asleep in my chair - guess who is sat on the floor.😂😂😂
I’ve done the same with AirTags. They are great.
They are a god option aren't they especially for our dog which chases birds and gets itself lost. Thanks for watching again H and M

Cheers guys thank you , we are both well thanks H and M
good selection of gadgets guys we’d so love a router but don’t really spend enough time in van yet to justify it , also love the apple tag idea , enjoy the rest o👍😀
of your week * 😂
Cheers guys there is always something else to buy isn't there. We like have a tag on Poppy's collar given she is such an escape artist. Thanks for watching Helen and Martin
Hi there, I have just watched your top 5 gadgets which was so useful however I cannot see the model / name of the ‘portable solar panels’ you use to charge your iPads. Apologies if you have and I have not seen it! Many thanks
Hi Hazel , ours are these , we have two as they charge our Jackery power bank to. uk.jackery.com/products/solarsaga-100w-solar-panel?gclid=CjwKCAjwi8iXBhBeEiwAKbUoffIYMxGZA_MK72t_pvtVvmiWIL6hoGphcD82YWmCxHjbHLf2FqFyahoCi1cQAvD_BwE
... oh dear, that means about 50 gadgets that I will need assuming that they may all choose different ones.
Does a beer bottle opener count as a gadget?
Thank you Helen and Martin.
You can’t have enough gadgets Roger , that’s Martin’s standard response 😂. We just watched the other group members video and he’s added a few more to his list 😂. Thanks for watching best wishes Helen me Martin
You have forgotten to mention the 6th essential item which is your Valencia FC football shirt! (Good man)... keep up the good work... love your videos on the ‘camino’...
Hi Joe thanks for watching , I bought the shirt in Valencia , not just a city I love, but one of my favourite players in the English Premiership over the years Juan Mata played here and established himself . He is a role model for all young aspiring players in my opinion. We loved the Camino story and love Spain and the Spanish people 🇪🇸 . Looking forward to being back soon. Best wishes Helen and Martin
Do the Apple AirTags work on husbands? 🤔😆
Mobile WiFi is the business. We love ours and never struggle now.
Some great gadgets there thanks for the tips.
Beth out! 😁 x
They do work on husbands providing you hide it on them without their knowledge 😂. Cheers Beth H and M
@@HelenandMartinsTreks 🤣
I like the look of the Apple AirTags. One of our cats goes off for days at a time and I’d love to know where he goes! Do you need to put a SIM card in to make them work? Suzie x
Hi Suzie , no SIM card required all tracked via the find my phone app. It would be an interesting exercise to track where the cat 🐈 goes won’t it. Thanks for watching Helen and Martin.
@@HelenandMartinsTreks That's great, thank you. I got some cheap cat collar trackers before and they needed an active sim card for the GPS to work. These sound much better. I'll get some ordered. Shame you don't get commission! 😂
Hi, we are off to France for 2 months in April do you have any experience of buying a french data sim card for a router?
Hi John , thanks for watching , to answer your question in short form no , we purchased local SIM cards in both Spain and Portugal , but had enough roaming capability to transit France with . I can’t imagine the process would be much different though. We produced ID and bought non contract PAYG SIM. best wishes Helen and Martin
Ok, many thanks
Hi Martin. Can I ask what Mifi system you installed and if you had any issues using it in Europe. Would you recommend it. Regards Steve
Hi Steve thanks for watching , we have a system installed by these guys www.motorhomewifi.com/our-products/5g-ready-packages/ . We have the 5G ready flex. We rate it , we used effectively both in the UK and European, we local national bought SIM cards in the device no issues. ( Spain and Portugal) . That said no system will work if the SIM card can't pick up a signal but this was only problem once and not in Europe. 😏. We had tried everything else tethering , dongles etc etc , but this is better. Hope that helps.
@@HelenandMartinsTreks . Thanks Guys. So many devices out there but your recommendations will do me. I’ve got a month or two to get sorted before we head off on our first overseas trip to France and Spain. Looking forward to your next adventures
Nice to see you both.
I’ve been thinking about those air tag things. Might give them a go. They are the only things that would be useful for me. I don’t have a van. 🥲
Hi Ian , nice to hear from you , I did't realise you were van less , is there a new one on order. ?
