Tip for emptying you waste, do the black water first, and then the grey help flush that through after

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Yes Sam at Freedom RV advised us to do this its a great shout! ❤️

[@spracing04]

A possible reason that the air fryer wont work via the onboard generator is, that as the RV is American, their electricity supply is 120Volts, 60Hz (Hertz), where as UK appliances require 240V, 50Hz supply. Some devices now sold, will be multi-voltage compatible, however there will be some that will not work on the American supply, so just keep that in mind.

[@ToKnowFreedom]

This makes a lot of sense thank you! Think we are going to get a professional the check out all the electronics when we upgrade the batteries and solar so that it’s all set up correctly😊

[@kaikito7662]

I'm genuinely looking forward to the next video. Your channel has everything. An attractive couple with attractive personalities who certainly seem to have both drive and energy. You have a dog who pretends not to know that it is cute. There is the atmosphere of your adventures leading to some stunningly beautiful places . And last, but not least, there is the never-ending 1970s pink movie soundtrack. So massive thanks. And roll-on the next video.

Great RV guys. well i went full time in my A class, and lived full time 2 years, heres what i did to make it fully off grid. upgraded my solar panels, i would recommend at least 400W SOLAR for your RV. At least 2-3 lithium batteries, 3000 watt inverter, a dc to dc charger (will charge your batteries when driving) i would recommend Victron as its all blue tooth and great quality. i also had a separate ECOFLOW, amazing bit of kit, great for air fryer, and charges really fast. have a spare toilet container for your toilet, incase you break your only one (for pee and poo), a good tracker? i also had a ghost 2 immobiliser (best on market), amazon fire stick was a must (chipped ones even better lol).

[@ToKnowFreedom]

[@chrisfisher2839]

I watch many channels like this one. One of those wanted a more modern motorhome but when looking at new ones they found they were not as ideal as their existing class A motorhome so renovated it by using white vinyl to cover most of the wood elements, doors etc. They were very pleased with the outcome. Might be worth considering.

[@ToKnowFreedom]

That’s a very good idea and would be a lot easier than painting. Also means it could easily be restored to the original if required 🙌🏼

Highly recommend a Clayton power unit, it will run everything in your RV and it’s just in one compact unit, the solar will also plug straight in, a lot of people are actually moving away from the victron systems and going to Clayton for the simplicity although the victron systems can’t be knocked, loving the videos keep it up!

i love the conservatory bit! its all very nice, i am sure theres a way around the air fryer problem, somebody will know, they are so useful! paper plates and throw away things are useful, saves the washing up and the water!

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Thank you we love the conservatory soo much can’t wait until we get to places with even better views! 😍 Yep we love a paper plate when off grid soo useful!

[@DavidPiper-h2w]

Great video. The issue with the air fryer not working on the generator might be related to the AC frequency that the generator outputs, the United States uses 60Hz while Europe uses 50Hz. This problem is not easily resolved, and the best solution is to purchase equipment that can operate on both 50Hz and 60Hz. You can check if this is the case by looking at the generators specification plate.

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Ah good point David that’s sounds like it could be the issue! We will check it out! Thank you ❤️

[@holdenman8850]

The reason the air fryer doesn't work on the genny as it's 110V USA not 240V UK electric.. put in full victron system and change the genny for a Honda or and sh1t load of solar ​@@ToKnowFreedom

You might want to look into getting an RV Macerator Pump, it connects to you waste outlet and then you can empty the tanks through a normal hose pipe. Handy if there isn't an RV dump station near you.

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Have not heard of that thank you! We have large hoses just now but it can sometimes be difficult if the chemical disposal station is elevated so I guess that would help with that! Do you have an RV yourself?

just a quick tip . As soon as you can get some Owartrol oil on all the steel work thats going rusty . superb stuff . a german wonder liquid that light and easy to apply with no harsh chemicals . also on the remodelling start ith all the curtains carpets and upholstery . dont paint the wood it will destroy the value and unless your a professional paint sprayer it wont look good

[@lizzybeth6558]

Consider buying some bamboo plates and bowls you won’t need to far about putting things in between them when you travel and they are more environmentally friendly than paper plates and plastic plates etc. you could probably do with in at least some of your cupboards installing some extra shelves or pull out draw bits as it looks like it might get to be a bit of a pain having to rummage around for stuff because they look really big. You can also get privacy film for your conservatory windows that will allow you to see out but others won’t be able to see in during the daytime which might help with a sense of privacy. I’m looking forward to watching your journeys and adventures. 😊

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Hi Lizzy - thanks for you comment great suggestions ❤️ all of the windows except the front windscreen do have a tint on them so that people can’t really see in but we could add an additional film to make it even more private!! Thank you for watching x

[@calummoir]

Wish we had done what you are doing when we were younger, however we have now got a 8.8 m Motorhome and like you guys, we have been kitting it out for full time living. We did most things and trialed it out at the euros 🙈 we found that the 460ah battery and new victron 50a dc-dc charger along with solar and also an invertor worked great. Didn’t really need EHU, although handy if it’s available. Anyway keep up the good work and you never know, might bump into you (near a golf course )

Love watching your first few vlogs and look forward to your adventures. My only suggestion for you would be to get a pair of marigolds for the waste and keep them hanging in there on a peg so that you can easily grab them without touching the hands which will be dirty. I would also cover the headboard and def have a go at painting the loo with bathroom paint. Will make a big difference, can’t go wrong. Good luck

Thank Julie great tips! Will see what happens with the painting 😂

You really need lithium leisure batteries to work with the solar......it'll be a game changer. Also an inverter 👍🏻😁

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Yes we cannot wait until we have the money to upgrade!! It’s great having the generator but it’s a bit loud especially in the morning! 😅

[@justinlinnane8043]

@@ToKnowFreedom you don't have to spend thousands to get a good working lithium setup . Buy a good quality solar generator ( Anker 767 etc ) with a standalone solar panel kit and just plug that into the hook up socket to get high output 240v power. Easy and instant lithium power . T he great thing about this too is you can transfer it to any vehicle as its a mobile setup .

If you can afford to pay a professional to do any work on the RV then do so , bear in mind you can destroy a lot of the resale value of your RV very easily and you would need specialist paints for many of the surfaces . Also definitely find a specialist for your solar set-up and install Lithium batteries asap , get More capacity that you think that you will need....just-in-case and you may well need to replace your air-fryer with a lower wattage model...Don't install anything Less than a 3000 Watt inverter

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Brilliant advice John cheers! We will weigh up the costs of both! Yes we were thinking 3000W minimum 🙌🏼

Totally agree with john on this ,you may not think of selling but if you can get a professional job done. Cupboard doors can be wrapped carpets can be changed Walls painted but if u do a gash job it will look shite and this is effectively ur hame now. Research solar set up there is company’s where u put in ur requirements ie how many appliances ur this u will have on at anyone time and they tell u how many and what u need , please don’t bodge it u will regret it.

[@bigtoe333333]

Really great video guys- you both come across as lovely people, and always interesting and entertaining. I've lived on a narrowboat for the last 4 years, 99% of this time being off grid and with no mains power source. So my suggestion comes from my need to stay totally off grid indefinitely, if needed. I do think the amount of money and priority you give to paying for the extra off grid gear will probably depend on how many nights per month you are planning to be off grid, i.e. not on a campsite with electric hookup. If you're going to spend most nights with electric hookup, for example, you might give the off grid capability a bit lower importance, and lower budget. And vice versa of course. To give you a real life example: I use about 150Ah (Ah is amp-hours) of battery capacity every 24 hours. With an air fryer and the other stuff in use, I reckon you guys could be looking at using 300Ah per day easily. I'd want a battery capacity of least 1000 Ah You should put as much solar on the roof as its possible to fit safely and securely. 1000 watts of panels is a useful minimum target, and its a great amount for some people, but more is always better. I have 1400 watts, which sounds a lot, but from November to February they dont give me much power. The ability to tilt the panels to directly face the sun can almost double their yield, but I would imagine it might be complex and expensive to install complex mountings on the top of a road vehicle roof.

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Brilliant advice thank you for your in depth comment it’s super helpful as it can be hard to wrap your head around at the beginning when you are unsure of how much you need! ❤️

[@bigtoe333333]

@@ToKnowFreedom , its great to be able to help, if only by highlighting some of the questions that I faced when I was putting my system together. And I'm fascinated by the idea of living in a big RV or motorhome at some point, so it will be really helpful to learn from your experiences as you meet the challenges. For example, I guess one of the biggest challenges might be how to find overnight parking spaces big enough for the RV - so I cant want to see how you manage all that!

We have actually not found parking too difficult so far! Have been able to get on most campsites as well as find off grid spots. Lots of blog content to come we just need to get it edited 😅😂

I think your generator needs checking out by a electrical engineer. I don’t think it’s sending out enough power to the circuit board which might be why the air fryer won’t work. Just a thought--best of luck.

Thank you we will look into getting it checked!

Thank you Ross! We are planing to explore the UK as much as possible before we head over to either France or The Netherlands in the next couple months ❤️

Just a thought on the Air Fryer. Is the internal AC running on the USA standard of 110v when not on hook up. Most electronic devices like TV's in the UK will automatically switch between 110v and 230v so will not be a problem, However most EU products that generate heat via an inductive loads like air fryers will only work on 230v. I hope my comment is helpful. Good luck for the future. Regards Ian

[@ToKnowFreedom]

I think you are bang on Ian as the AC only works when the generator is on. Hopefully we can get the battery / solar / inverter upgrade very soon and it will solve our problem 😊

@@ToKnowFreedom Yes lots of solutions for you out there. Thank you for taking the time to reply so quickly.

What a fantastic Rv......whats it like on fuel ? O by the way did you get a gimble for your phone or camera becaused I noticed there is no shake ing now when broadcasting ?

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Because it has the LPG conversion its a lot more economical than the petrol and we have not found it too bad! Not yet actually - must have just had a steady hand that week 😂

[@OliverAllpress]

There are a few very good channels for learning about RV electrical on youtube. There are also a couple of VERY good RV/Vanlife electrical installers in the UK who you guys should have a chat with.

[@ToKnowFreedom]

Thank you we will have a look! If you have any recommendations please let us know! ❤️

Cracking lay out!! On the black waste, is that just going into the normal elsan toilet point?

[@ToKnowFreedom]

We thought so too! Yes it can be difficult if the toilet disposal is raised which is the case for most uk sites but we have managed so far using the hoses. There will be content on that in our upcoming vlogs as let’s just say it hasn’t always went smoothly 😅🤢
