You could try and borrow a similar one from a friend

It's ok as capitals go. I did a video about it - it is a few years old now but not too much has changed - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaC9qnijhLtmrLc

It was like that long before the pandemic sadly

Very true

I will tell you why as you aren't the first to suggest this. When I made this video I had only just started on KZbin and thought this get around the smart charger problem may help someone. I certainly would have shown that the other battery was also charged but, naively, what I didn't realise then was that there were so many disbelieving wankers like you around. Now crawl back into your hole.

@@JPinFuerteventura Sorry You feel that way but it is more believable to see it shown it doesn't always work . and for you to tell me to crawl in a hole . that shows how petty you are. just because you show both working it's easy to think that I tried it it didn't work. so what. don't get inflammatory because someone thought it wasn't quit right the way you did it.

Borrow a similar good one from a friend perhaps?

@@JPinFuerteventura can I use a higher voltage donar

I think a few commenters have said that they have successfully done this but I haven't so I can't recommend it. Good luck Frank.

It is a nice beach. Thanks for watching and keep enjoying your stay.

@@JPinFuerteventura thanks very much 😀

As it has a lower voltage it should do no harm to try it.

Probably my thinking to try and get more charge into the bad battery. There shouldn't be an overheated condition being underrated in voltage. Perhaps a second opinion from someone who is as knowledgeable would help. Thanks, guys!

Thanks Rick. That depends on which view you take.

He was a lovely man. I was corresponding with him before he died and used to receive lovely fountain pen written replies.

I hope you had a good time Johnny. I have been slacking recently. Hoping to get my motivation back.

?

We are ok thanks. You too I hope.

Hopefully you will Machael. You can never guarantee the rain though.

Most people say not to due to strong currents and undertows

Love your channel 👍👌

lol thanks Michael

@JPinFuerteventura I totally get what your saying about this place. From my perspective I relocated to the Isle of Mull and lived there for 10 glorious years. I reckon that in despite of the ten years that I lived there, I've still not even scratched the surface there. Then you get people who get the bus tour from Oban to Iona and then they think that they've done Mull!!! I don't live there anymore, but I constantly revisit the place, living in a place like that, can sometimes be a pain in the arse to earn a decent living. A Bit like Fuerteventura too I guess? My partner and I have been coming here for the last five years, so now are looking into ways that are more cost effective than to staying at an all inclusive and infact coming back more times a year and for longer periods each time. Hopefully I can be rich enough to retire here! Need to come up with a plan B for that, seeing as the Firefighters pension that I signed up to isnt worth the paper its written on. Anyway, I've still got 5 days left here!, which I will make the most of. All the best JP and keep up the good work.

@@michaelrobertson9317 Yes, earning a living here isn't easy. Mostly jobs in the tourist industry, which don't pay well. Any jobs in the public sector (council, police, firefighters, taxis, buses etc) only ever go to locals/Spanish. Enjoy the rest of your stay.

Thanks Cameron

I keep saying yes but things get in the way Mark.

I guess that if they did they would sell less new batteries

Most of the shops etc closed long before covid. It has looked pretty much the same for the past 11 years sadly.

I hope they help

The make doesn't really matter as long as the voltage and type of battery is similar

Thanks very much Gary

I hope it was useful

It is such a shame

I imagine that all the plots in front of the hotel will be developed at some point. I haven't heard of any imminent plans though.

@@JPinFuerteventura Sadly I think that may be the case. Shame!

Thanks

I guess that depends on what you believe. I haven't heard anyone who said it was but I am sure some will believe that.

I am glad it brought back memories Barbara

It sounds like it is faulty so I suggest you return it

@@JPinFuerteventura Thanks ~ I have now got a replacement after reporting the fault in time within the warranty period.

No nos está afectando directamente, pero sí está causando problemas, sobre todo en otras islas, como ocurre en la mayor parte de Europa.

I know you used to take Spanish lessons, maybe still do. But do tell, did you use Google translate to reply ? ​@JPinFuerteventura

@@CASPTHEGHOST Absolutely 😉

Thanks for watching

Hi again Raymond. The email address is working now plus if you go to my Facebook page you can send me a message there - facebook.com/Jpinfuerteventura

Thanks. Good luck with your project.

Hi. That could be because the website that email is attached to is currently down with a technical problem. I won't put my email here publically as it will end up on lots of stupid email lists and I will be swamped. If you go to my Facebook page you can send a message on here - facebook.com/Jpinfuerteventura/

That email address is working again Raymond

I haven't heard from you Raymond. Have you tried again?

It is the so-called "smart" charger. The charger has to detect a voltage before it will start to charge so if the battery has become very discharged no voltage will be detected. Therefore, it won't start to charge. Jumping it from another battery gives it enough to be detected. Like all things called "smart," such as smartphones, they are anything but smart.

It is still the same as far as I know Mark.

Well obviously I think so otherwise I would be living there. If you love beautiful, natural, white, sandy beaches then there is only one choice which is here. It is all a matter of personal preference.

@@JPinFuerteventura what about corralejo or Moro jable

I am glad it helped James

The batteries may have dead cells

I have no experience of renting Roger so I can't really give any useful information

Thanks 👍

​@@JPinFuerteventurahey JP. Hope you are ok. Would recommend Moro jable or corralejo? Solo traveler. Not a party person or clubbing. But not too dead if you get me

​@@JPinFuerteventuraalso. What is that area you walk the dogs in the old vids. Looks amazing

@@markjackson5333 Hi Mark. I quite like the old part of Morro Jable but not the new very touristy bit with all the hotels. Corralejo has its quieter bits which are ok. Have you considered El Cotillo? I suspect the dog walk area you are talking about is the dry riverbed area between El Cotillo and Lajares.

​@@JPinFuerteventuradidn't even know you replied. I am sorry. Wish I knew where to stay between the 2. Moro or corralejo. Don't want to regret my choice lol

Borrow a similar battery from a friend perhaps?

They are the biggest hazard when driving here (or anywhere in Spain). Even the law doesn't get how to drive a roundabout properly. The modern roundabout was invented in the UK so we should know!
