Solo Overnight in a Weird Heated eBay Tent

Spending the night at one of my favourite wild spots in a weird tent bought on eBay, I heat the tent with no log burner and cook some mexican snacks.

Andy mate, my brother, Richard Minto, loved your channel, he sadly passed away a week ago, he was paralysed for 4 years before his passing, but before his passion was bushcraft, and all outdoor activities . He would walk the cairngorm mountains up here in Scotland for fun before his incident, keep going with your channel please xx

[@robynmarler1951]

May his memory be a blessing to you🎆

RIP, Richard Minto.

Dear Andy, your camping videos are my source of peace when my thoughts are loud. I cannot sleep without watching/listening to your videos. ❤❤ The audios and your voice are really calming for me.

[@tarnyaattwell4841]

I have fibromyalgia a pain disorder, and now I can hardly walk. Your channel makes it feel like Im out camping with my husband, who is clearly your long lost brother. Love watching the new tents and fires. And your voice is soothing and relaxing. I wake up in the night bc of pain and watch your videos, and it helps me to chill a bit and think about the woods and wild camping. Thank u so much x

[@valerief1231]

I’m sorry you have Fibromyalgia, I do too, I’m finally getting old enough that I can tell people I’ve retired, when I was younger I developed fibro literally out of no where. Turns out it was most likely caused by statin cholesterol medication, just like dementia the medical community wants to blame everything but themselves. I love watching nomad and camping videos, maybe one day I will be able to camp again, my husband is handicapped which he always has been, it wasn’t ever a problem because what he can’t do, I can… or could. Poor guy really got the short end of the stick, I was supposed to be his help mate, I adore him, but he’s done so much for me instead. I am finding some help from magnesium glycinate 400-800 mg at bedtime, really helps with restless leg syndrome, and I fall asleep a little easier too. I just learned today about B1, thiamine so I am looking into adding that to my supplements. Best wishes fibro warrior!

[@user-ry8nj8le5b]

Please look into Dr Ken Berry and carnivore diet against a lot of diseases, also like fybromyalgia, arthritis etc.

[@loriherrmann3181]

I second the motion to look into Dr. Ken Berry.

[@jmfarouche6688]

I have ALS so I can sympathize . I don’t tent camp anymore but i love bushcraft and outdoor camping, did it since i was a child with my family. Great memories, this channel makes me wish for those days again! Cheers everyone

[@user-ry8nj8le5b]

@@valerief1231 look into benfo-thiamine instead, better absorption in the body. Against to much pain I use cbd + thc. Let nature and good organic food be our healing. If moving like walking or yoga is too much, look into Qigong (I like Holden-7 minutes of magic etc. best.) Nature is southing like music. Camping, or just lying under the canopy..and listen to the wind is the best gift to ourselves. That's why we love these videos so much. And the voice ofcourse. A voice that should read us little bedtimes stories.. Hinthint❤️

I don't like camping and I've tried to like camping. But I like these videos because Andy is having so much fun camping. He's able to relax which I find to be relaxing. So I like watching a person camp that enjoys camping. I know it sounds weird but watching camping is completely different than camping.

[@craigofnot]

Northern Ontario Canada here. We use these tents extensively on the lake in the winter. Most people use portable propane heaters in these tents. I have an insulated one and recently have been running a small wood stove. Propane produces a lot of moisture which then freezes on the walls of the tent. Wood stoves or the portable diesel air heaters are the way to go. Cheers Andy, great vid as always!

[@KentSurvival]

I did see the insulated ones when getting this but was a bit overkill for this haha. Cheers

[@oldtimer9879]

Southern Okanagan BC Canada here. Yes, I know we have a tropical climate down here😂. But I totally agree get the tent insulation and use a wood stove. Happy fishing, buddy.

[@mikealvarado654]

Hey Andy! Glad to see a new video. I think the reason you can see through the seams is because it's not important when the lake is frozen and it's too cold to rain. And a rain fly would be nice on dry land in the summer 😅 camp on , old chap.

I've got me the same tent, from Vevor too, I use it for a sauna tent, mine had a couple of pin holes in it, not any repairs with sealant however (not good), strangely enough it doesn't leak in the rain, even heavy rain, I live in the UK too so have an appreciation of what a awful wet winter we have had. Loving the videos.

I just found your channel on a whim, and like hundreds have said before me: your videos are so relaxing. It's almost meditative to hear nature, the chopping of wood, the sizzling of food. And not in some ASMR way; it's more... zen? IDK, it really tickles some primordial nerve in my brain.

[@richardrae5049]

Seeing the orange glow of the wiremesh dome reminds me of my childhood, there were all manner of paraffin heaters used to stave off hypothermia.

[@ve2vfd]

We use those tents all the time to go ice fishing on the lake in winter, they are not meant to be rain or waterproof, they are meant to stop the freezing wind and snow. We use a stovepipe jacket in place of one of the velcro windows and a small wood stove inside the tent.

[@naheemrazaq8876]

Just had my dinner, now it’s time to sit back with a cuppa and relax with Andy my outdoor hero.

[@stuckinmopro8533]

I don’t know if this has been addressed before but Andrew are you a trained chef? Your technique is great and your knowledge is impressive. The fact that you can put fantastic meals together using a camping pan on a space heater is truly wonderful!

My family has been dying to go camping. It's still cold here in the mountains where we live. Your videos are really helping these free souls through the cold months, I'll say that. Thank you.

[@davetaylor4741]

Modern take on an old favourite. When I was a kid paraffin heaters, a bit like that, were everywhere. And the pump up light versions. We used them in the house. In the outdoor toilet. Night fishing. Most places you wanted heat. The old style had feet on the top. Like a gas stove. And were effective cookers. We never drained them. Just wedge them in the car and go. Spent many a night cuddling one on the Admiralty Pier Dover. Supposedly Cod fishing. Mostly feeding the fish. The wick on that new one is weird. And of course, we used Esso blue. Otherwise the smoke got in your eyes.

[@Slugsie1]

I definitely love the idea of a tent like this. I'm of an age now that being able to stand up in me tent is invaluable, and most 2/3 man pop-ups or domes aren't even close to tall enough. I absolutely need waterproof, and a fair degree of windproof is also quite handy. I'd definitely like to see more reviews of similar tents, just maybe a bit more 'premium'.

[@Generic_Title]

This eBay tent looked like a direct copy of my Gazelle T4 hub tent. It’s not cheap, but sometimes you get what you pay for…I was laughing seeing all the build quality issues of the eBay model.

[@coloradopackratprepper]

Dont buy Vevor they dont stand behind their crappy products

[@jamesellsworth9673]

The tent pops up and down nicely. It provides more useful privacy than your clear one!😇😋

[@KentSurvival]

Haha, very true that

[@lindak8664]

I look at those pop out tents sometimes, you see them a lot on the asian camping channels. I like the idea of them. I don’t like them not having a floor. I also don’t like how long they are packed down, or them not having bug screens. Looking at it, it seems i only like the pop out part! 😂.

[@mawmawvee]

You could always toss a tarp over your ice tent shelter to take care of any rain--Just a thought. It also rains in the winter... I like the tent itself, plus, if you get a chance to go ice fishing, you already will have an ice tent to shelter you from cold winds and/or rain. 😁❤👍👍👍👍👍

[@jimhilstad5227]

We use those tents mostly to break the wind and cut down on ambient light so that we can see what’s under the ice better. It’s usually way too cold to rain. Water tightness isn’t really an issue.

[@chrisbennett7983]

Parafin heaters used to be used as room heaters at home..but like burning gas they give off all of moisture so everything gets damp

[@gregb4421]

Cheers from Canada Andy. That is one cheap knockoff of an ice tent. I have an insulated quilted model and have slept in it at -30 degrees C with my Winnerwell stove. They're perfect for ice fishing, but that one even has windows that are cheap and positioned too high. With a good one, you can look outside while seated, important for monitoring your fishing line. Anytime you and any of your mates would like to trip to Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario you're welcome to stay here, as I live 15 minutes from the park. Thanks for your enthusiasm and joie de vivre.

[@tterryshenanigans1820]

Hard water fisherman from NY USA, usually heat my hut when it gets below 35 f. Edit. I use a Eskimo 350 xd. Insulated and has a full door on one side. Would definitely recommend. It weighs about 55 pounds, it's roomy and warm. A little ceiling fan makes a huge difference with heating these style tents.

[@josephkerley363]

When you get home pop up the tent in your garage or covered car port then step into it with a tube of seam sealant and daub where you see light. Presto! waterproof! It's always a good idea to keep a tube handy when tent camping anyway. Those tents are used a lot up here in Alaska. You're going to pop it up anyway for drying. Put that time to good use. Then take it out again when it's raining then make a final review. Another good video. Seeya next week.
