Hey I dont see that my side... but if you do, jump on it!!

Hey Adam, yes got it fixed at AutoGlass

was it through your insurance? I only ask as you have to declare no fault claims now which pushes up your premiums.

Hey, I used a double sheet and a regular pillow (just took the one from my own bed)

glad This helped!

No problem 👍 You’re welcome

I know, right? That’s the magic of film making! Just had it ready to go right away!

Good choice! That’s my preference 😂

This Yank agrees! Doing yoga to dress cannot be fun, nor the '30 yard dash' to get to a latrine--to find it closed for cleaning!

You’re not allowed to at some campsites, however they did have EV chargers at the entrance

Thanks Kevin!

That’s good, how was the night camping

You can’t unfortunately it’s prohibited, however there are EV chargers at the park

For a reference, in the USA I did use camp power to charge my 2019 Kia Niro. And many campgrounds forbid sleeping in your car.

So for this video I used a Sony ZV-E1 and an DJI action 4

Would be great to find out the tripod setup any chance of a video setup video

@@moviekidtechlife sure thing I might do a tech video soon

@@gospelgroupie hey good tip!

Oh really! Sometimes they are hidden around the corners, try using ZapMap App to find all the ones near your house

No you’re best to touch lock icon on the screen 👍

Oh really, this one was fine about it

Hey yes I’ve been there before, really nice place

@@Json918 hey you’re welcome! Hope you enjoy your new car! Be sure to check Out the referral link in the description and you’ll save £1000 on your new Tesla

👍👍

Absolutely! I’ve just seen a channel about a guy who lives in his!

Always! 👍😂

Thanks 🙏🏼- so for the cameras I have a Sony ZV-E1 as main camera, then a DJI action 4 (with a bit of iPhone footage too!)

@@MBrown Oh wow, never would of guessed 3 different cameras. Nice matching the videos.

@@SkyDomeVIZE Cheers thank you!

For sure! Yes I’m sometimes there! Working at Nimbus (do you use the super chargers there)

@@MBrown not used any super charger as yet only 2 weeks in to my full ev journey with a Megan etech, although have come from a Clio hybrid.

Thank you! You should give it a go if it’s only 1-2 nights! 👍👍

Haha yes we have incredibly small roads here! Single lanes that are barely wide enough for one car!

Hey yes that could certainly work!

Yes I need to get a mattress for the Model 3 (I had to give this one back 😭)

Do Tesla make one?

@@adamstockton67 no not for the Model 3, so I’d have to find a third party one

Hey that’s a great tip! You’re right really in camp mode it should do this shouldn’t it! 👍👍

@@MBrown no problem, we camp almost every weekend in the MY so have learned a lot.

@@SyyncroGroup thank you! 👍

Haha! Even grew the surfer hair out too! Just need a Jam First Sticker for the Tesla

Thanks glad you enjoyed it, yes I wasn’t sure whether to keep this all in, but decided to show 80% of it 👍

Hey great comment thank you, your trip sounded great. Yes, I agree you wouldn’t want to do this for more than a night or two and it’s handy if you’re just may be popping somewhere for an evening and then coming back the next day not a lot of room for a full holiday But for an odd night hearing there I think I could do it 👍

Do you do this with all videos? No one is saying this is the ultimate camping experience and we are all familiar with tents. Fool of a took.

Hey Freddy , yes I just paid for a two man tent pitch and message them before saying I was staying in the car which they seemed happy about, so cost me £16 for the night

Oh sorry to hear that, some of my videos don’t have music but as this is a long one I think it’s nice to have a bit of music to keep the attention, especially over a fairly boring subject like this 😆

Ha ha, yes, that was just my backpack with my towel in

Hey thanks for the question, so I use a few cameras for this video, my main camera is a Sony ZV-E1, and then all of the Devon stuff was filmed on a DJI action 4, then I also have a few shots my iPhone 14 Pro, and an Insta360. Let me know if you have any questions about the camera gear.

What tripod are you using and do you ever use the osmo pocket 3

@@moviekidtechlife I use a really light Ulanzi one

Hey Caleb, yeah that’s a great tip. Didn’t think of doing that so might try that next time.

@@MBrown Thought i'd give you another useful tip i've used when camping in my Tesla that might come in handy one day. Camp mode will only stay on till the battery reaches 20%, after that it won't engage. To somewhat override this, you can start any game in tesla arcade, turn the volume all the way down, then minimise the game and set your climate control on. As long as that game is active (even when minimised) the climate control will stay on. And you can ofcourse still activate screen clean mode to black out the screen (even with the game minimised). The only Major downside to this trick is the climate will stay on UNTIL YOU TURN IT OFF. Had a close call once where i fell asleep with 10% charge, and woke up with 1% charge left 😂😂😂 luckily there was a charger near by.

Doh! well spotted I didn’t even notice that myself I think because the window is tinted I must’ve just missed it! 👍👍

Silver side in is the correct orientation for cold night. Silver side reflects heat to keep it inside and saves a bit of battery energy. Even more important at -20C, I guess in emergency

There is a very slight slope it’s nothing too bad however I would probably try it before camping in overnight, as the seats to create a slight incline

You can lock the car. The benefit of camp mode is it disables interior and movement sensors.

Hey so it’s partially true, if you lock the car using your app the doors can still be opened from the outside as technically your car sees the phone is close by. So what you need to do is lock the car using the lock button on the screen rather than your app and this resolves that issue

@@MBrown Thanks, wasn’t aware of that. Luckily there wasn’t anyone around the woods when I had my one night trial run. (Escaping peak-heatwave in the summer. 🥶💤👍)

Hey good question, the campsite did say that the plugs are not rated for charging, however there were a few charges at this campsite if you do need to use them

Yes

Hey Michael, quick question so it’s not too noisy within inside the car and I did record a better video that I didn’t include from outside the car and it’s very very quiet you can barely hear the Aircon, it’s not like when the car is preconditioning so not too bad at all 👍

@@MBrown great thanks. Wouldn’t want to be the guy keeping everyone awake at a campsite. 😂

Great question, just got back from a 5 week European road trip in my model 3 2024 and this was my main issue when sleeping in the car. I haven’t seen anyone else talk about it. From the outside you are hardly hear anything (I got out the car a few times to check at different locations) but on the inside (when you have the fan on level 1-2 speed, anything over 2 is noisy) I find that there is a low noise that changes pitch after a minute or so. It must be the heat pump kicking in that was disturbing me. I think it happens more when the outside temperature is higher than the required inside temperature, which was mostly the case for me in August in France and Spain.After a few nights I started wearing earplugs and that worked for me. I don’t normally wear earplugs to sleep but found it comfortable quite quickly.

If it’s range / charging anxiety, the Tesla charging network is sublime, you will be absolutely fine. If it makes you feel better, plan some charging stops in rather than relying on the car.

@@graemewhitehead6233 👍

Hey that sounds like a good trip and I think the main thing would be to stay in a safe campsite and that may help you for the first night 👍

Totally agree 👍

Thanks for the advice, everyone

Cheers, thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the video

Hey so camp mode it’s best to lock the car from the screen, do not do it from your app otherwise people can still open the door from outside the car as your phone is inside

Hey yes I think because of this video I’m now seeing more than life and Tesla camping videos and this just came up for me this morning, it’s quite interesting isn’t it?

@@MBrown It sure is!! How people manage to live in such a small space is quite interesting in itself. There are some really good benefits to having such a small home on wheels though, parking, for instance, is soo much easier with a car than with an extended long wheelbase van. Heating is another benefit. Having such a small vehicle means that it takes far less to heat, or cool the interior space, something those with larger vans have to contend with every year. Although, an inportant thing to bare in mind, is that while using such a small vehicle as a place to eat and sleep, you're not spending all of your time IN the vehicle, even when cooking, as that can be done with a portable stove either around the vehicle, or up a mountain. 😀 I've been thinking quite seriously about starting van life when I can finally afford it. I'm thinking of gettting a small electric van, so that I can park wherever I like, within reason, of course. No trouble parking for me!! Hope you do more stuff like this as it's quite entertaining and can be a useful way of saving yourself some money while travelling. 😉😀

Hey thanks so much, that’s very kind of you and I hope you enjoy your new mattress, you’ll have to let me know how you get on with your first camp

Cheers Chris that’s the one

👍
