[@beastyadventures]

Such an in depth review, would be awesome to see how the various modes change and adapt to your driving style, especially in the Eco mode we all look to save a penny here and there and on fuel its a great start! Keep them coming and please keep us updated!

Thankyou Dimitri. Much appreciated mate, and thankyou for the shares and help 🤙

[@mitchellanddonnabrooke2177]

Reviews for me are the best. So many products around its great to get a personal perspective. Although this should be done without bias due to sponsorship. This product specifically I'll order based on your review

[@EdwardBath]

Great episode mate! looks like an interesting bit of kit!

Ryan your Ranger out of this world thanks for throttle review awsome

[@4x4ventures_southafrica]

Shot man 🤙

[@thunderstorm4wd882]

I am ordering one. is it wise to keep it in Auto Mode? Seems like when one does, full throttle and Full Power is available on demand?

[@kikohobby]

Hi, I buy the same device, "Power+" i put in Navara VL 2019, i feel this default range is not accurate, but i dont know how to calibrate this device. There is no instructions about it... Can you help me, thanks :)

[@4x4ventures_southafrica]

Hi Agus. There should be a paper/instructions that came with your product package. Check that you change it from automatic to manual, depending if your gear transmission is manual or auto. Otherwise please go to their website and reach out to Dawie Harmse. He will help.

Any feedback on the fuel consumption ?

[@4x4ventures_southafrica]

Hi Sarel, yes, an update on fuel consumption. I drive with the POWER+ setting A1.9 every day, all day since the release of this episode. 14.2 ltr per 100kms. I get abot 600kms - 650kms per tank. As a result I have now added a long range tank, giving me a total of 157ltrs of useable fuel. Bear in mind, and not in defence, but something to consider, the 4x4ventures ranger is very heavy. You will get higher fuel consumptions using any throttle booster / controller. I don't like economy mode, only in the reserves with no thick sand, and I very very rarely jump into the sports mode, top setting. Find that the A1.9 setting is perfect for my driving, even in thick sand. Hope this helps.

[@GetOutGO]

Probably too early to tell, but could you see any difference in fuel economy? Will be interesting to see what it does when you're towing as well.

[@4x4ventures_southafrica]

Yes, still a little too early, but I did see 11.2 Ltr/100km when in eco mode, and that number I haven't seen in a long time. Also, sitting at 13 Ltr/100Km currently, which should be at 14.2Ltr/100Kms. At the moment, I am happy, but will test, and send an updated review including fuel economy. Thank you Chris

@@4x4ventures_southafrica I like how you explained a bit of each setting. If you were just doing your daily driving to work and the shops, what setting would you choose and why? Thanks for the great vids

[@4x4ventures_southafrica]

@@francoiseverton2516 without a doubt the comfort mode A1.9. It is the sweet spot, and is enough responsive for day to day driving. Why, because it has enough pull for the larger tyres, and, it is economic, and has enough pull, for me, and the ol girl. She's heavy, so it helps

[@francoiseverton2516]

@@4x4ventures_southafrica thank you so much for the reply. I like to get proper feedback from someone that used or using a product as they have valuable insight to the product, which the brochures don't always tell you. Keep up the good work and keep on posting the awsome vids

[@4x4ventures_southafrica]
