⏩ What's with the gloves?
Not after any CZcams fame here which is why I'm not in the vids - they're not about me they're about the how-to! I used the gloves for the first couple of projects I filmed which just happened to be messy ones and it kinda just became a thing - easy to spot my videos! If that's not your thing and you'd prefer to watch a face, all good, I won't be offended, there's plenty of better looking ones to watch already on CZcams ;)
⏩ Where did this start?
I really enjoy tinkering with different projects - they usually require a whole bunch of research and learning along the way. It's satisfying on doing a thing and standing back and going 'Yeah! Totally did that!'. I had a bunch of mates asking 'how did you know how to do that?' and 'I couldn't never do that myself so I thought; I need to start something where I can help others that might be thinking the same thing :)
⏩ What will you find here?
The purpose is simply to make these videos as top quality and helpful as I can. They will always be free, there's ZERO agenda and the only motive is to try and upload what I would want to watch to help with that particular project. I'm also keen to keep building this little community and will try to answer all questions when asked - fire away :)

Thanks for checking it out, you can see the rest of the Trip Ready Reviews here: czcams.com/play/PLloptHW8MGGhKispUCQSn0i6Fh6DW_ul2.html
From your idea I found an induction charging motorbike phone mirror Mount. Wired directly to a 12v fuse accessory point. Leaving the stedi adapter for second phone. Phone locks in with no wobble.
Looks like a great system. I was looking at the 'Bluetti' systems - a bit cheaper than these and can add more batteries than just 1 extra.
Powering Ego lawn equipment batteries.
just for standards, there is an ecoflow river ultra 2 coming out, dunno what the day of release will be, tho, i assume it would be good!
Great video as always mate. Are you not using the evakool fridge anymore, I see it lurking on the self....? If you are, do you still rate it? Cheers in advance.
Yep still am for the bigger trips 👍 Still going strong
Hi Adam, which do you prefer? The eco flow or the Bluetti? Cheers Jeff
Both have their pros and cons, like how no power brick needed for eco flow and it's fast AC charge, like how Bluetti is flat topped and has wireless charge.. really just depends on your needs
If using a solar panel to charge do you need a regulator or does it have its own like a redarc bcdc?
Has its own, it has a build in MPPT regulator
Does it fit in the Stormod boxes?! Asking the important questions 😂
Haha depends on which box, the handle would need a snip if you wanted to squeeze in the over arch box
Do i need to download the app to used this device? I've been reading the reviews and many people are having issues when they download the app and do the firmware update. If i have the river pro & the back up battery, could i used them without downloading the app?
Nah don't need to, works fine without.
@@VideoShowMeHow Thanks brochacho! I was hesitant to buy the extra battery because I've seem a bunch of reviews that says the problem started when they tried to connect the extra battery and did the firmware update. Cool cool!
They seem to be fairly active so if there's any firmware issues no doubt a fix is on the way. But yeah can just run 'regular' eg no app no probs :)
What should I get mate 2023 Mazda bt50 or Hilux?
Out of those 2, prob the BT, better value
The grinder was probably only drawing 350w due to it not being under load. Try grinding something and seeing what it draws
Good point, will incorporate into future tests
@@VideoShowMeHow . on your Bluetti EB55 review a month ago, I called out the same as @SHB113 - c'mon, we want to see how gracefully it trips out 😁
Ah sorry mate, right will def incorporate into next test! 👍🙏 Tbh I was a little disappointed haha I wanted to see what would happen. I might find something that's a little less grindy, eg crack out the toaster or something
@@VideoShowMeHow Sink the grinder into some flatbar and lean on it, it'll trip out after a couple sec's - however agree with a more real world test, like a 1000/1200 Watt induction cooker ramped up till it trips, and a test of how long it will boil water for, running at a smidge under max capacity - or, how long it runs a hair-drier on low. yes, we all have a mate who has a partner who wants to pack the hairdrier...
😂 See if I can sneak the hairdryer out for a test ;)
How do I hook up a solar panel to charge it?
Just need the mc4 to DC cable
