Lightship L1 All-Electric RV tour with Co-Founder Ben Parker

[@A_World_Full_of_Lies]

Lovely trailer. My only complaint is, I need a wand in that shower that I can hold and spray water to important areas lol. After hiking or a long hot day of activities, water just pouring over my head is not gonna cut it. I love the trailer! Nice job!

[@gridjac]

I love the idea of the drive axle..I hope that catches on with other types of trailers also. The collapsible design for improved aerodynamics is great. I do wish it had a private primary bedroom.. maybe at some point they will. Otherwise I think it looks fantastic inside and out. It’s definitely not the most affordable trailer out there, but that’s understandable. I think it’s a huge step forward in innovation. I really hope they do well.

[@tomgray971]

Unless those windows are bulletproof, they wouldn't last a month on Alberta roads. All the counter space is nice. Lower storage is good and it looks like provision for better upper storage. No screens when those windows are up -- bugs camp with you! We had an RV where we had to unmake the bed every morning and remake it every night--hated it, even with double sleeping bags. Makes me wonder if the designer has ever spent any time in an RV.

[@sergioruiz9425]

I love the design ,for the living room, the red/pink color cushion , I think it should be more a neutral color that makes you feel reflex and cozy. science to color.

[@figaro410]

What is the tongue weight with that monster box up front?

[@audislowroad]

I'm wanting to know more about the propulsion setup. How much power, how it's control, how it doesn't lug on the tow vehicle nor push you more than you want. I have many questions! Very intriguing!

[@laloajuria4678]

Yes bc it's a puff piece

[@pvman2]

And is a propelled trailer legal in all states?

[@loriallen67]

That open air shower 😳 Wow. 😊

[@heatherfidlerartist]

Only watched this b/c I wanted to see the camper. You might want to film the camper, not the person talking. When he was talking about the flooring, show the flooring 😂 sheesh

[@AllElectricFamily]

Our Full Tour video covers that. :)

[@julielorenzo]

Commercial is better. Most of this video is your face, you are talking about it while not showing it. Unless this video is an interview. Then I apologize, I really wanted to see more about the trailer. I will keep searching😊

[@midnight121190]

I love this idea but I think they really missed the mark on this. They tried to build a small house, which is lovely, but evs don’t have the ability to tow enough to make this fun to travel with. I think the length could’ve been significantly reduced and 7,500 lbs loaded?! Are you kidding me? You’d get like 50 miles range :( There was sooooo much storage space that seems unnecessary. I hope to see a mini version that could easily be towed by evs though. Beautiful design, but I can’t see this being practical for their target market

[@b.c.3311]

Great concept! Where do I put 1 - 2 weeks of clothes for, at minimum, two people? Maybe have a twin-bed option (maybe already is and I missed it).

[@juddridesbikes]

very cool... but how would you actually connect the cable to the vehicle at a DCFC station?

[@allenwhitsitt838]

Love it, but would need a bed solution that allowed it to stay made up. Maybe some kind of creative drop down/fold up Murphy bed setup.

[@AllElectricFamily]

Stay tuned, I think they may have a creative solution to be able to sleep 6.

[@angelllll1997]

It would be smart to turn these into food truck as well 😮

[@bh9262]

This is fantastic! I had thought about this. You made it happen! Just add a steering wheel and you won't need a tow vehicle. :)

[@mikebiron7339]

Interesting concept. A new spokesperson is needed desperately. This poor guy is way over his head in doing this walkaround.

[@AllElectricFamily]

Ben is the co-founder. Very interesting guy to have a conversation with, he definitely has big ideas!

[@johnmorrill5637]

So, a few things. A BIG ONE is SCREENS! You can't have just open air. Where do live that doesn't have bugs? There needs to be a screen door, and screens on all the windows that open!! I'd like to see a video with the windows "blacked". Can you make it dark in there (like for a nap or not wanting to wake with the crack of dawn - or at a campsite where there are lights around you)? MANY campsites put you unnervingly close to the next camper over. Those windows need to be walls a lot in real world. Where are the TV's? (I don't like "camping" - I like a "mobile home" - with WIFI and ROKU on TV's). How cold can it handle with just electric heating? Propane can get you through a sub-freezing night. Where do you keep plates, cups, silverware, cooking pots/pans? Lastly - have you brought this with all the glass into a Phoenix summer?

[@andrewboden6127]

Their specs page needs to include tongue weight and gross max weight. Agree that a standard bed size would be better, and they should get rid of the glass on that front section. Can the drive motors be used to creep the caravan into position at the camp site? Does the drive motor change the licensing requirements?

[@NicholasProszkow]

Love the thought. $150,000 is insane. Hope they make headwind on costs so people can afford them.

[@AllElectricFamily]

I don't think it's insane. Consider an Airstream that costs over $100k without an 80kWh battery, no solar, and no motors.

[@NicholasProszkow]

@@AllElectricFamily well - I would consider $100k for an airstream not quite insane - but outside the reach of many families. Understandably, quality is important and Airstream usually delivers for that price - but you can easily purchase two (if not 3 with those "sale prices") 30 foot campers from other manufactures for less than $100k. Just to clarify - I ABSOLUTELY want an EV camper to pull with my Lightning!

[@ltphilipg]

Thank you for the video! Please focus on the product instead of the presenter. Nice channel! Waiting for my R1S in July 🤞🏽

[@AllElectricFamily]

Our previous video on the L1 focused on the RV. :)

[@ltphilipg]

@@AllElectricFamily ohhh - I literally missed it when I looked through your videos this morning. The title started with something else other than the product name - I see it now - thanks

[@harriettanthony7352]

Great Ideas! The pop up camper has been around a LONG time, this is an improvement on the style. How about in wheel hub motors, and loos the complexity and weight of the ICE style drive train?

[@tangomechanic]

An incinerator toilet like Cinderella will leave the competition in the dust.

[@claritovirata3504]

Does it park itself just like estream?

[@MrJasonReiser]

What a neat machine. I hope they’ll consider making the “slightly larger than queen sided bed” a standard queen. You don’t want to be in the linens business, and this is often a sore spot in RVing and boating that you can get right.

[@bobbyseabrook8769]

Awesome, absolutely awesome, i need to test drive this, im sure ill be pleased.

[@adriandavidpayne]

Less face, more camper. For the love, get a wide angle lens.

[@ROLYATATAK]

Storage?

[@raicebannon1936]

The camera is showing the guy speaking and showing few details of the camper. You need a new video focusing completely on the RV

[@AllElectricFamily]

It was posted before this video was made. 🙂

[@willcookmakeup]

They should have collabed with more people who currently own tiny homes or live life with campers. Its not very homey or outfitted with really any camping stuff/storage which kind of defeats the purpose of it bejng a camper.

[@santoni58]

I am apologizing in advance, this is a terrible presentation of this amazing product. Please add a video with nobody interfering or in the way, and I well plan and executed presentation. This product deserve the attention for those willing to invest in new technology. No offense intended, just constructive criticism.

[@christylbk]

I didn't see curtains how easy is it to see in those windows at night when you have to change clothes

[@AllElectricFamily]

When we are talking in the bathroom watch the windows. They’ve got that covered.

[@TomMoench]

The windows electrically darken to complete opaqueness.

[@katherinejohnson5433]

love it what does it weigh. Will my Y pull it haha

[@billayers2190]

A twin bed that converts to a larger bed.

[@Dannyar10]

My concerns are the weight of this thing with that 80kwh battery. Once that battery runs out when towing, your tow vehicle is now pulling around a ton of dead weight. Fast Charging one of these is not possible at the moment considering the size and layout of existing chargers.

[@AllElectricFamily]

Weight has far less to do with range than aerodynamics. When you have a trailer that is this aerodynamic, it's going to have much less impact on the tow vehicle even if it's not assisting.

[@eagle4life69]

nice Video

[@CrankyOldNerd]

Intriguing. The layout is a little hard to get a view of, not sure I like the cram all the beds at one side setup. Wish they had more outdoor focused cooking features. Cooking in a box is not always fun, Half of going out to the outdoors is to cook outdoors. Interior is only for terrible pouring rain days.

[@AllElectricFamily]

There is a small outdoor kitchen planned, it just wasn’t on the prototype on display.

[@incognito8448]

8000 lb travel trailer ... I have a 7000lb travel trailer(normal) and you sure aint getting no where fast trying to tow it with a Tesla with a long range battery ...tried that didnt work. 436 miles to the lake and it did not get a 125 miles before needed a charge making a day drive into a have to stop at Motel overnight drive there and again going back.

[@MarkVanWey]

This has motors on it. You could hook it to a prius. And it has regen to slow it down

[@howlinhauler]

pop up for 1%r

[@asaftzadok6647]

Great overview video !

[@whitneypay515]

He is so hard to listen to describe this. He is stumbling and choppy with his words.

[@JohnSmith-lf3qn]

Just another EV grift. It's basically a RV with batteries and solar panels that needs to be towed. Nothing original or innovative here

[@johnmorrill5637]

So, the fact that it propels itself, adds no drag to the tow vehicle, has 3 KW of solar, and folds down to be the same height as the tow vehicle escaped you?
