What a really brilliant list! Some excellent points I’ve not considered. Thank you for sharing.

@@Angelalivingaquietlife you’re very welcome Angela, glad it’s of use to you. Enjoy your camping!👍 Thanks for watching 👀 Andrew, Jane & Buddy 🐶

[@philkirk5970]

Thank you, very helpful. Also we liked that your list came across as genuine and sincere. Some similar vlogs feel simply like a money making opportunity. Thanks again.

[@Eurosully]

Hi Phil, thanks for your kind comment 😊 we put the list together from our experience rather than trying to commercialise things (we don’t have an Amazon shop etc). If you see any of our other vlogs you’ll know we don’t take KZbin too seriously, make very little money but are confident of our future fame and fortune!! 💰 💰 😂 Thanks for watching 👀 Andrew, Jane & Buddy 🐶

A few really good ideas for storage and cleaning - am curious what you had in the little Mason Jar bags. I have a couple of small portable fans, one is USB powered, the other rechargeable - great for getting some airflow going. My tip for you is to get 12v adapters for your laptops, you're using the EcoFlow to go from 12v up to 240V with its inverter when laptops use around 19V. If you've got Macbooks you can just get a PD cable. I charge my Macbook up in the campervan even when I'm at home by using 12V via a PD cable and a cig socket adapter that cost about GBP20 off Amazon in total for a pair. Add some more 12V USB points in suitable spots around the van and save energy when off grid - also better for charging smart phones off pure 12v instead of a USB on a 240V socket.

@@linz_in_NZ hi Linz, thanks for all of the suggestions, all really good. It’s been a while since we made that vlog and we have moved on with our ways of dealing with things. We too have invested in USB 12v fans and adapter for the laptop etc. The small Mason jar/bags contain herbs and spices!! Many thanks for watching 👀 and of course for your feedback and contribution 👍 La France 🇫🇷 c'est si facile en van 🚐 Andrew, Jane & Buddy 🐶

Brilliant vlog! Really good subject!

[@Eurosully]

Thanks guys 👍

[@janetjacks3406]

I was going to go for Safefill as I understand they just use the Calor pipe work so you can literally just buy a bottle and get going with it.

[@Eurosully]

Not sure how Safefill, works. Does it have an external filler point, as I have heard some service stations won’t allow you to refill without external filler?? Thanks for watching the vlog, appreciate your engagement 👍

[@johnmcclurey4035]

We are enjoying your videos immensely so keep up the good work. I’ve noticed that you are using the Ohrex satnav. What made you choose that one and would you recommend it? Thanks, John.

[@Eurosully]

@@johnmcclurey4035 I think I’ve answered this? Maybe a glitch in the Matrix!

[@timlong8444]

some great tips - thanks !

[@Eurosully]

Very kind of you to say 👍

[@rhinogooner]

I was trying to see if you had the ceiling mounted reading lights. We changed ours in our caravan for ones with a USB socket. They are dead easy to change because they are the same dimensions but with a USB socket. Just a thought if you still won’t more sockets.

[@Eurosully]

Wow Bob, we were literally just discussing our lack of usb’s again just now!!! Presume we just unscrew, then disconnect the current lights and replace with new ones with usb? Same two wires/block connections? Are you reading our minds?!! 🧐 be careful in there, it’s a dark place!!! Regards Andrew, Jane & Buddy 🐶

[@rhinogooner]

@@Eurosully Exactly unscrew old one same two wires about 10 minute job. The only problem you might encounter is the screw holes not quite lining up but use one hole and slightly move unit make a new hole. Old hole will be out of sight. Some of your ideas we already use in our van. After all the only difference between MH and caravan is your engine is on the inside, ours is on the outside 😂

[@Eurosully]

@@rhinogooner spot on Bob, thanks for this 👍 I’ll let you know if I ⚽️ s it up and the van explodes 💣 😂

[@karenlund2703]

Please can you tell me what wattage is the power flow river 😊

[@Eurosully]

It’s the smallest (cheapest!) of the power banks. At the time, 12 months ago, it was circa £250. It’s 268wh, the smallest and is very handy. Seen it recently on. “Prime day” offer for less than £200, so quite a bargain. In hindsight we probably should have got a bigger one but we’d already spent a small fortune kitting up a new motorhome so getting low on cash!! 💰 😂 Thanks for watching Karen 👍 Andrew, Jane & Buddy 🐶

[@karenlund2703]

@@Eurosully thank you we don’t want to spend a fortune as we have just got a motorhome from a caravan . Would you recommend river 2 then ? I’ve seen one for £250 .

[@Eurosully]

@@karenlund2703 yes, I have friends with river 2, no issues. Just look out for a deal, maybe a Black Friday deal before Christmas. Not tried any of the other brands, but they all do the same thing. Caravan to motorhome, exciting! How are you finding it??

[@karenlund2703]

@@Eurosully we love it so easy to set up .We are away in it at High Bentham not too far for us .Does your Sat nav have 7 or 9 in screen we are going to buy one too ?Really appreciate you help 😊

[@Eurosully]

@@karenlund2703 it’s the 7 inch, and for the money it’s very good. Once we worked out all it’s features we really got into it. Way points, points of interest etc and of course your dimensions. TIP: when putting in your dimensions, do it as a large car rather than a truck/wagon (you’ll see when in settings). I started as a truck and changed dimensions but it started taking me on strange routes (designed to keep all goods vehicles, even light ones, out of towns) once changed to car then added dimensions it’s been great. Also, for width and height, add a little, if you are 2.3m wide it will take you down a 2.3 m wide road, same with height, a little too close for comfort! 😂👍

[@markandrews70]

Hi, what model of sat nab is the one you have,thanks

[@Eurosully]

Hi, it’s a OHREX 7 inch. Don’t have any more detail than that, sorry. Bought from Amazon, but no longer stocked, however you can go straight to the OHREX web site to purchase this and a few other variants. 👍

[@norbertoferreira2555]

Where did you buy the inverter?

[@Eurosully]

Hi Norberto, we bought it directly from EcoFlow, the manufacturer, but it’s widely available from all the usual online selling sites. It is the EcoFlow River, there is now a River 2 version. Thanks for watching 👍

[@Eurosully]

@@johnmcclurey4035 thanks John, appreciate the feedback. The OHREX was chosen as it allows entry of dimensions and because it was £80 (two years later it’s cheaper!) it’s been great, although after 12 months the battery became poor so only works when plugged in. It has been very accurate and I would buy another. My data usage has changed, so now I have mobile data I am missing live traffic so maybe next time I’ll look for one that connects to phone data??
