@@wj2827 this is mentioned in the video, wj, the vacuum speed drops from 12-14 litres to minute on 240 V down to 7-8 litres per minute on 12V. It otherwise operates the same. ~ Ben
@@SnowysOutdoors did you just seal the chip packet? Or did you vacuum seal it? I've found smooth bags round the house that I can heat seal with the campfire vacuum sealer. But the same smooth bag won't suck in when trying to vacuum seal
These sealers can only seal micro channel bags, maybe the chip bag was a micro channel bag, but most of the smooth bag would be plastic which only works with a chamber vacuum sealer.
Have one of these for the house, but a camping version would be great!
Most people use them prior to their trip, but the 12V option certainly makes for a handy addition to a camp setup. ~ Ben
would be good to see how it performed on 12volts for those campers who go on longer trips.

Be good to fillet all the fish and vac bag all the meat while away and bring home the meat without the mess.
Yeah, that's a great way to manage your catch, keeps the meat as fresh as possible too. ~ Ben
Can it also vacuum seal smooth bags? Or does it only work with the textured bags?
Smooth bags should be fine, I've sealed a chip packet in a vacuum sealer before. ~ Ben
