  • With a snow storm moving in, Teddy and I take our Jeep Gladiators deep into the mountains to go camping for the night. Along the way we battle icy headlights and heavy snow through a mountain pass.

  • @jordansvc
    @jordansvc Před 2 měsíci +4

    That is one thing I noticed during my night snow wheeling. It's hard to fly a drone at night, avoid trees, and not get sucked into the deep snow at the same time. Your flying skills while driving impress the crap out of me. Nice work!

    The problem with LED headlights is that they don't generate the heat needed to melt ice making them useless trying to get home or wherever. I learned this during The "Snowpocalypse" in Atlanta.

    • @redneckwithajeep5001
      @redneckwithajeep5001 Před 2 měsíci

      Yeah my Jeep has LED lights all the way around and I’m constantly rethinking that choice in the winter actually bought a second rig and decided from the get go I need to keep at least the stock headlights halogen and just run LEDs as secondary lights

    • @StarGateSG7
      @StarGateSG7 Před 2 měsíci +3

      I actually designed something cool for a 4x4 buddy of mine where I hooked up a small but ruggedized heavy-duty air compressor output to a heating coil that heats the air to 40+ Celcius and then through a hose to blow that heated air out a flattened nozzle that sends a thin sheet of heated air across all the headlights, fog lamps and lightbars. This melts the snow AND cleans the lights too! It's 60 PSI so it's not a big deal pressure-wise to build using common rubber gas hoses and attach to an in-cabin switch and a 2nd separate 12V Car battery!
      We also use it to heat up a cold tent before we sleep in the dead of winter! One of the hoses is on a reel that I can bring to any of the tents to help us get comfy! The 2nd 1V car battery prevents draining the main battery and a second alternator system recharges the battery.
      I can set the switch to pulse the air blast to 1 to 10 times per second or I can set it to blow continuous for 10 seconds and then switch off for a user-set period of time or I can set it to blow continuously. I can also set the output pressure from 5 PSI to 100 PSI -- And YES, I already know that the pressurization automatically heats-up the air BUT on final output from the nozzle I want that air stream to STAY heated and not lower too much in temperature due to the volume increase/pressure decrease upon output from the nozzle!

      So which light melts them

    • @StarGateSG7
      @StarGateSG7 Před měsícem

      @@ghplayer1992 HID (High Intensity DIscharge) lights would do it! They are usually Xenon or Sodium filled which are HOT, HEAVY and require lots of POWER to light up! 12 Volts won't work. A small onboard generator will need to be installed that powers those sorts of lights which tend to be run off 120V at 20 amps or even 240 at 30 amps.
      A pulsed pressurized hot-air solution works best to clear your lights in bad weather. Those can be run off a second 12V battery or via a 2nd Alternator running off the engine. All the parts can easily and cheaply be bought at Home Depot, Canadian Tire, Princess Auto or Harbor Freight!

    So i know they make "add-a" defroster grid kits for windows, i wonder if there is a small enough kit to fit headlights. That would keep the snow melted unless its super cold.

  • @PhatboyHD88
    @PhatboyHD88 Před 2 měsíci

    You need a lock out pole. Use like a selfie pole that is height adjustable and extend it from floor to roof in a corner by the opening so it cant collapse . You get the idea 👍😊

  • @brusnikko
    @brusnikko Před 2 měsíci +1

    Shaun, you definitely made too much drama here at third minute 😂 survive in a storm, come oon
    It didn’t work with me this time hahhah
    I mean “storm” is calm snowfall with no wind
    “surviving” is driving via flat road slightly covered with a fresh snow
    It’s evening beer from the mall ride, not surviving in a storm
    I might be, for newyorker😂 but not for a Canadian, you know

    Love these videos, just personally wish the adventures I was witnessing was a bit more relatable. It oftentimes feels like money spent plays a much larger role in the perseverance than the perseverance one has accomplished either through physical endurance/innovation or by finding workarounds w/a vehicle that can’t do literally everything between the trail head and camp. Again.. Super interesting, great editing and production -just find it a bit less interesting each time the build budget increases.

Take it from the people that actually wheel with me, I'm not horrible and getting better every trip. I took a screenshot of your comment. I can't wait to make a video on it and the others like it. 😊 Shaun knows what he's doing. So if he's wheeling with me, that should tell you everything you need to know.
