[@BrentsVanLife]

Thanks Lynne ❤️

[@louparry7721]

hi brent, it is nice to have a group of friends that can be there to help each other when needed. Your soup is very healthy. I hope Wayne got some , it would be just what he needs to fight that nasty flu. I hope you get a seasonal flu shot. Please give the Dude a hug for me. Your friend, Louise

[@BrentsVanLife]

Love your support Louise

I've been to the cute litte mural tiwn of Chemainus many times. Glad you could help out Wayne and his kitty. As the song says🎵 that's what friends are for.🎵 Take it easy, stay warm, stay well.

[@BrentsVanLife]

Yes, Chemainus is amazing.

[@Emilia-tx3zw]

Add a little lemon juice to your bowl/cup of soup just before eating. Do not add during cooking process. It enhances the flavor!

[@BrentsVanLife]

I’ll try that

[@virginiacaston1456]

Watching the replay. Hi Brent and Dude! Glad you're feeling better.

[@BrentsVanLife]

We both are, thanks

I’m hungry now, I’m heading into Walmart before they close. Great video Brent. Stay warm.

[@MsSoozy]

Wow what a cool tool to have in the arsenal, you never know, my battery is on borrowed time but I can’t say enough about the interstate batteries! Gotta check those out! Glad to see you are feeling much better. I paid $100.00 for two bags! It’s ridiculous and only going to get worse I’m afraid. Be safe and warm out there.

[@BrentsVanLife]

Did you know Costco batteries are interstate

[@kellybenhart3244]

Glad you feelin better finally.. Vit C and Zinc

[@BrentsVanLife]

Yes maam

[@traveleats6833]

We have a similar battery booster to start our truck, although we have never needed it. For decades, I have used high-quality booster cables. However, with increased boondocking, we quickly learned from other people's misfortune that sometimes you have to walk great distances to find someone to boost you out in the bush.

[@BrentsVanLife]

It's always good to be prepared! Right Tim

[@perrycuenot3769]

Checking in on that asperx for sure! Soup 🍲 looked scrumptious ! 🗺️🚌🐕😎

[@BrentsVanLife]

Soup is life! And Asperx was def a great addition

[@katherinespong]

Happy to see you feeling so much better.

[@BrentsVanLife]

Us too

[@seaside2001]

$100. in a grocery store doesn't go very far these days. Love the portable charger. I think I will buy one of those. Great to have on hand for household use, even if you are not an RV-er. Power outages etc. Charge up the phones. Put it in the car when travelling somewhere.

[@BrentsVanLife]

You’re right, a little extra juice can go a long way!

[@DonnasRoadTrips]

Well this was a nice mix, except for the vehicle troubles. Great place for dinner as well.

[@BrentsVanLife]

Crazy how weird things bring up together

Glad to see youre feeling better! Soup looked yummy!

[@BrentsVanLife]

Soup is always a good idea! Thanks for watching

[@Anniesrandommoments]

Hi Brent, because of your COPD have you thought about using a snood when out in the cold air? Your dinner looked great no processed food 😊 It's made me feel hungry but it's nearly 3am 😂

[@BrentsVanLife]

I’ll have to google snood, but ya, soup was amazing

[@BohoBlueVan]

Nice vid, Brent. Inspiring me to make chicken soup.

oh you guys - so sorry to hear this and hope you are both back on the road and feeling better now!!! the odd couple needs good health vibes please

[@BrentsVanLife]

I’ll say

[@loualwell7930]

Good video. I have 1 charger/trickle, 2 jump starters and tire pump. I have a 2005 car that 3 mechanics can’t figure out what is draining the battery. So rechargeable jump starters are a life saver. I don’t leave home without one.

[@BrentsVanLife]

It sounds like you’re ready for anything!

[@gail130]

[@incognitoatunknown2702]

Ahh... exactly what I was looking for except that I wasn't sure exactly what I was looking for. My daughter's bf drives up from the States every couple of weeks and has to do the trek through Buffalo to get here. Being Xmas, I wanted to get him something to help in a (winter) emergency. Low and behold, here you are showing off this Asperx gadget. Serendipity. I will definitely purchase from your description link, Brent! Now, I just need to find a decent set of those metal/plastic slat things that you put under the tires to get enough traction to get out of mud/snow etc. Do you have any suggestions for those, Brent? 🎄Brent and The Dude helping me with my Christmas shopping. 💯

[@BrentsVanLife]

I do know Rhino has a great name in Off Road supplies. Check to see if they sell them on Amazon

[@DoreenGregory-sj3df]

Good to see you that you are feeling better! Christmas times a coming,any plans yet? My place is ready and just waiting for my company to arrive for a week to 10 days. 14 people for Christmas Day. Shud be a shit show….Lol ….cheers…

[@BrentsVanLife]

Sounds like an awesome Xmas Doreen. Mine will be quite

[@jordanvargovich]

No noodles in the soup lol

[@BrentsVanLife]

Not with potatoes

[@tamo9520]

You make chicken soup a lot! That's a good thing. But it reminds me of a soup that I haven't had in decades! DECADES! My mom called it Egg Noodle Drop soup. Is that a Czech recipe? A Ukrainian recipe? Or is it even an Irish recipe? I say recipe, but I s'pose we could also add the words like traditional and folklore to that description. And maybe it was just a recipe from the depression. I'm not sure. But everytime I see you make your soup, I tell myself that I have "Got To" make myself mom's old Egg Noodle Drop soup. . . . . . And I don't! Don't ask me why! lol I don't have an answer. Hopefully Wayne is back on the road to recovery and everyone's batteries are all charged up & raring to go! (Including the human ones, lol)

[@BrentsVanLife]

I have made chicken & DUMPLING soup. Love that stuff

[@DeliberateNRandom]

Just be aware that they can struggle when it's kept in the cold and cold outside. I was able to jump my E-450 V10 bus this summer without a battery. I couldn't jump it yesterday with the battery and it was 20°F. And it looks like you've gotten a few miles from your battery, being it's from 2017. You could maybe use your house batteries to jump your bus. I used an AGM battery as my battery with a bypass switch and it worked great. Lithium isn't as high of an output, but it might be enough. Depending on your inverter, you might be able to hook up a battery jumper with that, or just let it trickle charge off the lithium. Do those batteries have low temperature protection?

[@BrentsVanLife]

No swapping here, but I do keep my placewarm, all the time

[@debramickley2295]

I have a NOCO battery starter, and tire inflator. I travel by myself 🙏😎🚐🇨🇦

[@BrentsVanLife]

Amazing

[@katherinespong]

I have the NOCO starter, the tire inflater is news (to me).

[@PhilSmith-fb6wz]

Brent i have a small generator which i have used numerous times to charge my batteries as I am parked. I just bought a 50 amp charger which is magnificent but it is too powerful for my generator. I am currently wandering through the scams on marketplace looking for 1000 amps or more generator. Why don't you have a charger it could have numerous uses that your mighty bluetti isn't powerful enough to do.

[@BrentsVanLife]

Honestly, with 300 ah of battery, 300 solar and my bluetti, I haven’t had need But I wish I had room for one Maybe one day
