My last night in the camper van like this. And I couldn't be happier about it!

I get asked what's the best power station for van life. Well it really depends on what you use it for. But my main 2 recommendations are the EcoFlow Delta 2 and the River 2 Pro. Check out their Black Friday sale here and use the codes for an additional 5% off! Plus they're including a free camping light!
EcoFlow official website: uk.ecoflow.com...
5% off Code: AdzVentures

So yep.. This night of stealth camping in my Ducato campervan is the end of an era. I have spent 2 winters in vans with no heating. But not any more! This is the last night in the cold.
It's a fairly basic episode where I stealth camp outside a burger restaurant, and cook myself some snacks in the air fryer. Hope you enjoy it!

What you’re calling “ flour mites “ are Weevils . Weevils live in / on grains including wheat . When wheat gets ground to flour the eggs are so small they get into the flour where they remain dormant until conditions are right for them to hatch , which is usually around room / kitchen temperature. The way to stop this is either to store your flour with oxygen absorbers in an air tight container , or , freeze your flour for 3 days , take it out of the freezer for one day , then re freeze it for 3 days ( it’s to do with the life cycle of the eggs ) . Weevils are in most , if not all flour , so don’t feel they’re targeting you personally ( although I have heard Weevils are issued with a photo of you as they enter the flour mill so as they know who to take out the demise of their homes by the combine harvester on )

[@Adz]

So what you’re saying is. We’re all eating eggs usually. Brilliant 😂😂 I think I’m going to start an anti weevil support group!

Flour mites are found in grain and other dry foodstuffs. They are the most prevalent mite in our grub. All over the shop, up in yo dog food and cereals. They love that flour tho, so once they get into the white powdery heaven they can really multiply even quicker. Ps I don't think many regular geezas are thinking about about shaving kittens to be fair 🙏👍❤

[@witchfindergeneral2504]

Wouldn’t it be better with butter, then marmite and last of all the cheese. If you would like some colour some Red Leicester would do the trick.

[@Adz]

I only use butter if there’s no cheese involved. I like Red Leicester but not for melting. Double Gloucester could be good though!

That cheese looked epic on the top of the crumpet. Very good point on mites - a mystery! Vans coming on well. All the best, David 👍

[@Adz]

It’s a great power station. There are some smaller ones they do but with the current price of this one (especially with my discount) I think it’s worth going for. It’s not let me down yet! And far more portable than the delta range if you’re not needing that higher power

[@alxgu198]

Adz, crumpets look amazing 👍. Little tip here, try Marmite with peanut butter. Trust me 😋.

Don't suppose you could give an insurance company. I'm dreading getting my van finished and having to start going from one to the other 😊

Not sure what you mean. Did you want an insurance recommendation? Because A plan (thatcham branch) are amazing. I think they may have changed their name a few months back but not sure. They will insure you whilst the build is going on and they will insure to an agreed value of what the finished van will be. And if you mention you heard about them from my channel they’ll give a 10% discount too. The direct line for the correct office is 01635 879915

Hi Adz the van is looking fantastic love the look question are you planning on insulating the under slung tank and piping as if it freezes you wont be able to use the sink or anything as water will back flow into the van. I mention this as you are going to the Arctic circle and is very cold up there very cold. Stay safe buddy love your filming style michale notts 🫶👍

[@Adz]

I mentioned that in the video mate. The device I made can be left open so no need for insulation. And I don’t think it’d help if it gets to minus 40 anyway unless it was heated. So yeah that’s why I made the device

[@LeeLeesAdventures]

Good idea but I would still insulate the drain pipe as even if you leave it open at -6-10 it will freeze any water flowing out and remember the water is not always flowing so at night it will freeze up causing you massive problems. I would insulate the under tank and the drain pipes. Or I see trouble ahead. There is a song in there some where. 🤣🤣 better safe than sorry

Hey dude. Any chance you could try running a 500w fan heater off the most suitable ecoflow. I’ve got no heating in my van and currently have to lug a petrol generator around with me, which isn’t ideal ✊

[@Adz]

I’ve done that before.. It was a tiny bit effective in a very tiny well insulated van. In my current van I wouldn’t waste the electricity on it. It would run for about 1hr 45 on the biggest of the 2 power stations I had in this video, and would barely change the temperature. My heated blanket is by far the best thing I’ve had to keep warm. Although a diesel heater or similar is the best option if that’s a possibility
