The little pocket in the canteen case is for "Water purification tablet" bottle.
Nice one, thank you for your comment ☺️
The golden headlamp of destiny!
That Head lamp worked well, the head strap isn't designed for adults.
Take it easy
Canteen pouch pocket is for puritabs in a zippit bag 👍
If you wanna make the backpack, a little more sturdy, you can take your inflatable mattress inflated completely, put it inside the backpack in a circular motion and stuff everything else inside that way your backpack would be more rigid and maybe more to your liking
The floor mat is quite thick when inflated. But yea I see what you are on about. Cheers mate
iv got one them saws i got it from Germany its pretty decent iv used it for years with no problems
What type of saw blade is on yours, the teeth on this one are quite fine
I’m gna be freezing. Gna have to take some Pajamas. 😂 I LOLd
The gonk bag is horrific!!! 🤣
The over night test is gona be funny to watch bud😂
I ain't looking forward to it 🤣 especially if my fat body doesn't fit in the gonk bag!!!! 🤣
@@greenvalleyoutdoors tight squeeze 😂😂
The stainless dish with the stove is for an alcohol burner. You can also use wood pellets with this stove. I have this one in my stove arsenal. 😁❤
Amazing, thank you for letting me know 👍
I just got a 85 l bag with rails / frame waist and chest support for 25 quid from go outdoors . Its a great starter bag . Eurohike nepal 85 . Its better than expected at the price point
What's that like, an US issued alice pack?
Nice vid, buddy. I have two things to say on that gear.
1. The headlamp. A little trip to Halfrauds, and grab a roll of the brake-light repair tape, and stick some over the front of the lamps. This gives a red light instead of blinding white light. As an ex-soldier you’ll appreciate the benefit of keeping your night-vision.
2. The folding buck-saw. Those ones are crap. I have one and hate it. You don’t have enough purchase to twist the knurled knob-ends tight enough to properly tension the blade, meaning every single cut will be a curved one. In my experience, if you’re going to need a saw of that type, you’ll also be wanting straight cuts.
My 50p worth. Everything else looks like a decent start-out gear load-out 👍🏻
Hi Mike. Head lamp will only be used in emergencies, i.e., checking for spiders and or ghosts🤣.
As for the saw It was cheap. I will put it through its paces.
Thanks for the ridge line pointers the other week.
Ah, well I guess nobody wants nightvision if they don’t want to see ghosts or spiders. I’d rather not see either, myself 😂😂
You’re very welcome indeed, my friend. I’d love to come out with you over a long weekend sometime - that’d be very cool 👍🏻
Get me on Facebook with dates and I'll book it in!!!
I think i just made it 500..at least on my screen.. Congrats my Brother
Wow amazing, thank you for your support. 500 subs is competition time 😊
Loving the production and set quality getting better and better
PS I love you ❤
Stop, your making me shy 🤭 🤣😍
The spare dish with the wood stove is for an emergency use alcohol burner. Does work but not well.
Nice one mate. Hope you're having a fantastic Xmas so far
I've always needed a wood gassifier 😂
🤣🤣 this is how it's described on Temu.
@@greenvalleyoutdoors Yeah I've seen that on lots of stuff, it's hilarious at times.
I actually might get that little camp stove. I plan to start hiking and need just about everything accept knives and cutting tools, that I have plenty of.
Everything on this video is good other than the sleeping bag.
I believethe pocket on the canteen pouch is for water purification tablets not sweets
The gasifier stoves work great. I've had mine for 2 years and it goes with me on just about every hiking trip. It's important how you load them, though, and you light them from the top. Pack the wood and twigs in standing up vertically as tight as you can. Make sure the secondary burning holes on the inside are not covered. I get almost 45 minutes of useful heat out of mine. But again, there's a knack to loading them. Its One of my favorite pieces of gear. Also, with the folding saw: I couldn't find anywhere that sold replacement blades. I'm anxious to see how yours performs. It'll be interesting to see how everything works out for you. BTW: little tray for the stove can be used as an ash catcher, or a little tray for holding a solid fuel pellets (it goes inside the stove).
Hello mate, that's where I went wrong then, as it took a while to boil a cup of water.
The bow saw teeth are too fine for my usage so didn't use it for very long, how ever, the grey fold saw was great to use and a nice size.
Thank you for your feed back, I really appreciate it
Floyd
No problem... Just one more thing about the gasifier: I leave a little space in the very middle when getting close to finishing loading it and stuff some tinder (of your choice) in the lot. Light that (from the top as I said) and you should be good-to-go. I know, it's counter intuitive, but that is how they are designed. You shouldn't have anything more than a small pile of ashes when it's all burned - very efficient little guys and one of the few things out of China that you can count on. 😉 Like I said, I love mine and once I figured it out it's become part of my standard gear, especially when an open fire is not an option (some national parks, and burn-bans here in the States). Enjoyed the vid and the concept of trying out cheap gear. (Glad I didn't get the folding saw... got a Silky instead).
@davidvaughn7752 I was intrigued by Temu, I wanted to see how cheap I could get it and how it would hold up.
I am also a silky fan. I have the gomboy and bigboy outback which are in my everyday load out.
Cheers mate
@@greenvalleyoutdoors 👍
The dish on the wood burner is for using liquid fuel when cooking remove the top pot stand and it should fit inside.
Ah right OK. Thank you for up dating me, you are a gentleman
The links dont take you to the individual items, just to the Temu home page. I am trying to find that knife. Do you have a more detailed link? Thanks for video.
Hi mate, most things now are discontinued. I think temu have had restrictions on sharp objects as Ive not been able to find knives on there
I got an old camp cot in my garage if you've got any use for it, Buddy.
Let me know and I'll bring it in for you 👍
You are a gentleman, thank you
great vid. Is it good value for money?
It's ok. Great starter kit. I need to do another one to see if anything has changed 😜
Looks like that dish might be for alcohol, or you might be able to to put a flame cube in it some kind of a solid fuel
Yea that makes sense.
Thank you for your feedback
Good haul! We watch with interest to see if half this stuff lasts the night or ends up on the fire - so far, it all looks bloody top notch.
I'm a firm believer in, you get what you pay for!
For the guys starting out it's an OK baseline but the sleeping bag is not great at all.
Thank you for a great review video which i really enjoyed. I'll share some info about Temu and their camping equipment on it as well.
Temu is a offshoot of PDD holdings (Pinduoduo Inc) a NASDAQ traded company, it's one of the largest e-commerce company in China, kind of their ver. of Amazon, Specializes in affordable but good quality everyday items, they sales to hundreds of millions Chinese everyday. Temu is their intl. offshoot, so they're used to dealing with huge sales volume at inexpensive prices. The products on it, are generally good for the price point, though some are better deals than others, along with few bad apples.
Company like Naturehike is one of biggest Outdoor/Camping equipment brand in China, (kind of their Ver. Of Coleman) based in the coastal city of Ningbo, in the province of Zhejiang. As china became more developed in recent decades, their people became more affluent, Outdoor sports/Camping became quite popular there, if one travel through their National Parks & Campgrounds, will see Naturehike products quite often, hence the generally good quality. What we see on Amazon or Temu are just a fraction of their entire products line up, usually selling by a 3rd party e-retailer on Amazon, ebay or Temu, just as Toyota don't sell their entire line up in US, there's many Toyota cars we never even heard of outside of Japan, cater to their domestic mkt but not intl mkt.
The World is changing fast before our eyes, China's Domestic Brands products quality are improving everyday, not just on camping gear but across the broad.
It's similar to Japan went from 70s-80s cheap cars & merchandises to 90s-00s fair & fine quality products at decen prices. Pretty soon some will become internationally recognizable brands & dominant players.
If 5 years ago, someone tells me a Chinese Outdoor Brand company makes the world's best ultralight titanium backpacking stove, I did say you must be joking, but now everyone seriously about backpacking heard of BRS stove.
A brave new world we live in.
The price always go up on products that get reviewed by celebrities 😁
I won't review it next time 🤣🤣
For what you got for 130 quid is not bad especially if you are a beginner I'm looking at spending about £100 on 100L DMP bergen and a tarp 😊
I swear by old army issue kit, literally bomb proof. I spent 15 years in the forces and still using old kit
@@greenvalleyoutdoors I always buy from ex Navy and army stores as I don't really like buying off the web two worried of being conned out of money
Stick to what you know. None of the temu equipment has anything on the surplus kit.
Hint: Stick a mouse pad under your mic, or get it off the table.
Thank you for your feed back.
Hey Moggie, wondering how many watches would like a full review on fire lighting using different ignition sources and fuels. I recon in bushcraft, the more you can learn, the better you can survive and choose your style. If any other GVO fan's wolud like this, either thumbs up or subscribe and ad a vote. Let's get the content that increases our understanding and knowledge. Are you with me viewer's?
Actually I am a single mother with high interest in survival n prepping I can't afford expensive stuff. Not everything is about veiws n comments. Openur eyes prices have gone up on everything so if I can get as deal the better
Damn, that sleeping bag is terrible! OK, my Amazon Basics "Amazon Basics Sleeping Bag for Cold-Weather Camping and Hiking, Lightweight, Mummy, Olive Green" (what a name!) is over twice the price (£29) but it is warm!
That sleeping bag isn't the best. Maybe good for an under blanket
The little pocket on the water bottle cover is for purification tablets. The little steel plate may be for solid fuel blocks ( hexamine/esbit).
This makes a lot of sense. I used the bushbox so this type of burner is new to me.
Thank you for your feedback
About the backpacks, its always hilarious to see the real product vs the propped-up with foam product :)
🤣 in the back packs defence it was only about £15 so I wasn't expecting much. It is a huge bag at 80ltrs
@@greenvalleyoutdoorswould you test the capacity. With a plastic bag inside. See how many liters you can pour in.
@bcamping1 I've got rid of that bag now. However, if I was to test the compacity of the pack. I'd get my over night kit with 48hrs worth of water and rations and a change of clothes.
@@greenvalleyoutdoors it's ok, I'm not interested in the bag itself.
Temu you pay with your data
that black folding saw is awful i had one and broke like the 4th time i used it blade wont stay in the handle
You got to a 4th use of it? 🤣
The teeth are so fine, it was taking me ages to cut through wood as thick as my wrist. Defo a no go
Temu also sells mics 😉😂(just bustin balls. Great video. Provided you’ve got the long shipping time there’s “there” there)
A mic is on my wish list. Thank you for your feed back, glad you enjoyed 🤣
Sometimes you gotta love CZcams algorithms. This video was suggested to me. I'm broke so the likes of temu and wish are my in for the world of wild camping (hopefully get what need by next summer to get out there) so appreciate the lack of judgement yet honesty in this video and looking forward to watching next vid of trying this all out! Top bloke got a sub from me 👍🏻
Be careful what you say into your phone 🤣.
The only big issue I had with the equipment was the sleeping bag. The rest of it was good workable kit.
Glad you've found this vid helpful. Thank you for your sub. Take it easy
Voking face guy
i got the folding saw, was super ass, really soft and thin blade.
The saw was OK. I found it did its job. I was wanting to seee the quality of temu equipment.
Thank you for your feed back 🙏
Chapters would be great - one for each product, then I'd watch the video as I can skip to products of interest.
Yea ok I'll look into that now. Thanks for you feed back
Hi mate, that should be sorted now. Always learning.
I haven’t seen a product yet that has been well made… the standard is horrendous and cheap ..Temu has a worrying reputation and are being investigated by the USA so hopefully they will be shut down… buy cheap buy twice…
I feel what you are saying. Personally the water bottle with mug and the wood stove I have some form of confidence but the rest seemed and felt cheap. Thank you for watching 😁
I buy their clothing and its great so far and more affordable too...blue jeans, shirts, shoes, bras, underwear, night gowns, some camping gear too...
I'll have a look at what outdoor clothing they have to offer.
Thank you for your comment 😁
Absolute tosh. All the products that I have purchased are well made, quality items. Maybe you have just been unlucky.
To see you use the products would be more interesting
I hear you, I do have a video out on my channel using the equipment.
Hope this helps.
Thank you
Refuse to support any forced labor practices like temu or any other....
Thank you for your feed back
If you shop at Walmart your supporting forced labor
Buy cheap, buy twice!
It all looks like nasty Chinese tat from a company that jeopardises reputable companies, plus the R&D on future quality products.
If you want to spend as little as possible on kit for a night in favourable conditions, then you've found the right company.
For anyone serious about their long-term welfare in the great outdoors, look elsewhere.
I prefer gear that is tried and tested, has stood the test of time, and won't fail when you are depending on it.
I'm not being elitist, and everyone's budget is different, but I'd much rather wait, save up for longer then buy something that is reliable.
Look at it as delayed gratification. Plus, if you care for it properly, it'll give you years of service. I'm still using kit I bought 40 years ago.
That was the the whole point of this vid.
I wanted to see for my self and show people the quality of the equipment. You are right you get what you pay for.
Thank you for your feedback 😊
Buy USA😊
Waste of time and money buying this gear, can appreciate some people are on a budget but this gear wont last.
I'm a bit of a kit snob, but I was wanting to trial out the opposite side of the spectrum.
It is cheap but worth the money I spent.
Thank you for your feed back
If you know what to buy and how to treat your equipment it will last. No gear will last forever. But yes certain things are trash you just need to know what to avoid but if you're ignorant that's on you 😂😂😂
