Hey mate, thanks for watching and commenting, appreciate you watching 🙂 I noticed the cast iron part on the kings is not much thiker then an A4 piece of paper, yet the one is the version I have is chunky as all hell. I'm just guessing but I reckon that would help keep the heat in coals? Also looks like the stainless steel is all thinner. I'm normally all for saving some money and buy kings stuff, but I reckon I'd spend the extra $15 after my discount code. But just my opinion 😂🤣

Holly shit!! $475 you have to be joking? How much is a person's salary in Japan!! It doesn't even has the cast iron peice for the coals to sit on so the fire wouldn't breath properly. Sorry mate I'm not seeing why that one is so much more money 🤨 I'm thinking there is a fair bit of profit in that unit.

@@Off.Track4x4 So you dont understand R/D yes its expencive its also real stainless steel and you realise that the cast iron block is to circomvent I/P ....What really gets me is you people who shill these products to people saying the best or some garbage , its far from it ..these are the same crap mass produced in china with a brand stamped on it , this is no better than kings or any other "brand" claiming the best firepit , its the design they stole

Very well said!!! 👏 Nothing worse then not being able to camp with a fire in winters, these units fix that hey. Thank you for watching and commenting legend 🙏 🙌

Thank you for watching and commenting legend. Really appreciate the information about the Biji and Aus Braai fitting, Really handy for people to know 😀

Wow tank you for the handy info 😄 I wonder if the mesh would make the charcoals burn through faster? Lloyd had a fully mesh fire pit, was super light weight but man the fires hurt through wood quickly!! Way to much air flow. But as you said super convenient for weight saving.... tough choice 😬

Hello Ian, unfortunately I can't test it as the safety switch trips on the adapter at 10amps, so can't get 16amps through to the van. Good idea though any thoughts on another way to test it? With out breaking the allpowes unit hahahah I use this every time it rains

Hahahahaha for a hang over I bet the darkroom is a life saver. Cheers for watching and the positive feedback back legend 🙌 👌

It all depends on each problem. There is also a section about bad workmanship. You maybe be able to claim under that.

Thank you for your comment legend, Lloyd had the same experience, Matt did refund him in full though.

Thanks legend I love it

Just a great cheap add on hey. Thanks for commenting and supporting the channel legend 🙌 😀

Hey mate thanks for watching and commenting again. I forgot to say if you peg them down they Handel the wind really well. Mines been through 1 mini cyclone 🌀 I think it's was 80km/h winds. Then whe video I filmed at double Island where 60km/h winds come up. As long as it's secure it's not going anywhere 💯 The ones that you saw pool with water, did they have them leaning down? We are lucky because it's on the 70 it all ways is pointed down so the water just runs off. If you have a smaller car it's probably the opposite. Thanks for the great point as all ways. And year we are ether drout or flooding up here, it's nuts.

Hello Stephen, Thank you for watching and commenting legend. I'm glad I could help that's all I'm trying to do. Give some none BS advice 🙂

Hahahahah 😂 I hardly think I fit into that category. Brain farts do happen with manual locking the hubs. Especially when you were not anticipating going into 4wd.

Thanks legends 😀 Hope you guys had a fantastic holiday period hey 👌

Hello Stephen, thanks for the comment and watching legend 😀 What do you mean another test on the bench? You definitely can run both the travel buddy and fridge. Each 12v outlet is rated to 10 amps. Travel buddy uses 9.37Amps at start up, fridge is between 3-5amps. So this unit could handle them no problem.

When you do the full in-depth test on the table in front of your shed. Like your other battery tests you do. Thank you

I would be shocked at your set up. But knowing you work out of your van you would need that power. Hey question how do you go using both solar blankets at the same time? I tried today and failed. I've since learnt that MPPTS I'll only accept 1 voltage coming in and they will all ways only accept the lower voltage.

@@Off.Track4x4 Remember, I work under my awning, which is why I haven't been to your hip camp so far with, what, 500mm of rain over the past month? Two blankets won't work with a direct connection to smart batteries, that kills batteries given the over-voltage. I have one rear Anderson connection, direct to battery for real emergency use, via the DC-DC charger - it's complex but not complicated, not recommended, and another story for another day. To make two blankets of different wattage, work together, the MPPT controller needs to be slightly and differently (two adverbs in a row) wired up with the DC-DC Controller. As an experiment, with the right 'funny/unfamiliar' connections (yellow tipped, two sizes), run your two solar panels to the power bank, using Andersons and the 'funny/unfamiliar' connection to the power bank connector. You'll find that that will work - you can disconnect one solar Anderson connection and see the wattage drop, plug it back in and you'll see the input Wattage rise. The two very unfamiliar 'phone jack' ports ... research will assist. When the rain goes away, I'll drop down to HB Regards, Stu PS - no one is gonna beat me on content or number of comments.

Hahahah 😂 December/ January i reckon are the two most expensive months of the year. I normally do all my shopping this time a year save big, then try to not buy much goodies through out the year. Thank you for watching and commenting legend 😁

@@Off.Track4x4 definitely, I need to strike while the iron is hot- because the Mrs has the rest of the year sewn up with her online shopping addiction 😉😂

Hello Rebecca, honestly you will not be disappointed this things are amazing and the price is mental!! Let me know how you go when you get it 😁 Cheers for watching and commenting 👍 👌

6 months ownership and use most days and nights then recharge with that 440w panel in a few hours to go again or use and top back up for night use

Hey Paul thank you for tour honest feedback back. What unit do you have? I don't think that happened with my S2000pro. Glad to hear other then that you love it. I cant fault any of the 3 models I've used. I love this big boy the most through! Air-conditioning in a caravan when ever I want it.....yes please 😁

@@Off.Track4x4 the unit you have there the R2500 I have ran it to empty a few times no problem either to recharge , they power up very quick with solar and plug in charger working together . Your air conditioner will happily run on just fan recirculating the cool air you just made with F-all power use as well ( ya think the air-con is on still lol mind games )

Thank you for watching and commenting 👍 🙏 😁

This was back when I pushed her to be infront of the camera 🤣😂 She won't do it any more sadly. Thanks for the comment 👍 😀

I can't believe they still out there!! The new Hardkorr awning should be dropping this week! I'll be looking at one of them. Or seeing what Beach 2 Bush comes out with

@Off.Track4x4 I was able to get a refund but pretty shocking they didn't recall them... I'm just gonna give a cheapie kings 180 freestanding a go until the big guys get their shit together 😂 can't be worse than this!

Hey mate, This panel puts out about 130-140W so it's pretty good for the money. My kings blanket kicks ass. But apparently they are hit and miss. Thank you for watching and commenting mate. 😁

@ I have a RTT and the foldable is ok but I need a faster charge so looking at a 300watt dual or single so I can spend more time off grid if I want too

Hey hey, Unfortunately after filming this the bushwakka had a few big issues. The backing track that holds the awning onto the brackets stretched and a bolt pulled out. Awning was replaced as very dangerous. Now the exposed metal feet have rubbed through the canvas and made several holes. My recommendation is neither.... hold off this week hardkorr should be releasing their new awning, or beach 2 bush has one coming aswell. Both companies owned and ran by real 4wders, so products normally hit the mark 😁

@Off.Track4x4 Thank you

I wondered if anyone would pick up on that 🤣😂 This is why I said the wrong price, Ash got my figures for me and the MMPT didn't show up so she gave the price of the cheaper unit. It's just a typo by their Web design team. I was ment to let the marketing team know but I forgot 😅

Probably same problem with printed circuit boards in thermostat .

What do you do for a job? That's some great knowledge 👌 Should it happen on its own? Or bad design?

I was so gobsmacked at how well it went. Good on you for using yours as well

Support both my channels! Thank you so much guys 😁🙏

Na because the two closest panels are super tight, about to rip and the middle pannle just sags. Darchee told me the fabric was stitched in the wrong place

Really appreciate it, thank you for watching 😁

Hahahah 😂 you would think I'd learn by now shoving a camera in her face never works. I guess I'm a slow learner 😅

@@Off.Track4x4 haha keeps the love alive lol

Was a terrific fridge up until this happened. A few people have commented it happens aloy sadly. Still don't know what else to get. Think Engal 🤔

Who did you buy it from?

Shit this is an old episode hahahah If you head up to the sea way there is now all ladders to get you in and out. Not a bad spot to start out.

Be careful with this model, suggest you watch my updated video before making a decision. I'm going to try out the Engal m.ua-cam.com/video/G3HJh2-VSnw/v-deo.html

Worth the money for sure!

Thanks so much mate! This is actually my first super like on this channel 😁

@ Keep up the good honest reviews….👍

Hey mate, unfortunately I'm not at home so don't have the instruction booklet. Looking at their website id say the new range definitely has cold and hot temperature discount. Just get one of them if your worried 😁 I'll never be anywhere near zero so doesn't concern me.

Hey Thomas, I took at look at the brands you mentioned, none of their models sold in Australia look anything like this device? From you statement I was expecting to find the exact same unit just with a different logo. ANERN looks like they get the same products as adventure kings, but year sorry I can't seem to find anything the same. Thank you for your feed back and commenting though.

Yep last one for now. I will run through the install. Then do some follow up videos to let everyone know how they are going. But that will be next year sometime. Unfortunately I couldn't put them all together or the review would have been 30mins long. But I say good on Supercheap, trying new things for them. I have to say they are amazing to work with. Zero rules around the review. Just asked me to test them out and say what I thought.

Well you answered my question before I asked it! Okay I'll order one on Supercheaps website. I'm a big fan of Bluetooth hey. Thanks for the comment legend 👍

@@Off.Track4x4 I installed my unit close to the aux battery (close is good) which is under a bed in our set up. No more lifting the mattress to see how the solar is performing with the blue tooth app! Merry Christmas.

if you looking for a bluetooth app device then take a victron charger it cost ~70$ so a full high quality charger for the prize of a BT dongle , renogy is pure scam.

@@ThomasNowicki-m5s I got mine as a special from Kickass and it was the cheapest I could find at about $120. I haven't seen any others that look the same - except maybe the King's one but I've been there, done that with King's gear. I don't see what the scam is for a quality product that works.

Thanks for helping the algorithm hero 😁 Really appreciate the support 🙏

Hey mate, thanks for watching. Fair few people seem to be running their gear now. Can't wait to test it out.

Hey mate 95VDC Stay tuned for the install video and testing.

I doubt it will run for long and not over heat and drain fast.

Hey mate, It was in-between rain so was just a test to see if it could handle start up. Should get 3-4 hours with no solar input. If you hooked up atleast 700w of solar then wouldn't drain the unit. I'm testing out the unit tomorrow running a house hahah 😆

These units definitely don't have overheating issues have massive fans built inside. I've had mine sitting in the sun while charging in 35 degrees no drams.

Hey mate, you normally give such good information and comment. But I'm assuming you didn't actually watch this review? This is not the dual input model I mentioned that 3 times. Also mention on Thursday they will be going in the van. This is purely just a spec and first impressions review. I think you can agree there is a lot that can be told from a products based off its specs. That's how we decide if we should buy it or not.

@@Off.Track4x4 Yes Mate, I did watch the video, and have first hand experience with this unit, I was so disappointed with them, I removed them from both vehicles (good waste of nearly $1000), I will be watching your results also to see if you come across the same issues I did and why I removed them which is they run too bloody hot, don't output 50A for longer than 5-10 minutes, and perform poorly with the solar input due to poorly implemented mppt design. To clarify; are you saying the Supercheap unit is different to the one you buy from Renogy direct and it's a single input only ? if so then you have misread something, this device is a dual input device this is what the mppt part of the unit is, a single input unit does not have the mppt circuits and can't accept solar input, these are just called DC to DC charger, they take alternator input only and output regulated DC. The dual input is stated on Supercheap website, and also on the documentation you can download from supercheap website, this unit take's Solar up to 50V (which is much better than most other products and why I chose this unit) and alternator input of 9-32V (which again is why I chose it because one system I have is 24V battery,) it then regulates the output to 50A or 720W based on it's internal logic. The only difference to the one Renogy sell direct on their website and ebay outlet for the same price or cheaper is the supercheap unit has Andersons fitted rather than bare wires, this will be done locally by supercheap, that's what the exclusive part is, it's just the Anderson plugs. Also they are definitely not a NEW device as your title suggests, I purchased these on the 19th of December 2023, directly from Renogy when they were first released, they are sold all around the world. Anyway, I'm not having a go at you as I think your channel is good, but you have dropped the ball with this product if you're going to test it by using a separate mppt because it defies why you would buy this product, you are paying a premium of $499 because it has mppt built in, You're better off buying the 60A Renogy DC to DC charger for $259 and a Victron 50A mppt for $199 and still come out cheaper than this unit for far better / reliable performance.

Hey mate, thanks for all the information. I'll make sure I check the temperature 🌡 If this one does the same thing it will be coming out. My hardkorr DCDC which is smaller design doesn't get hot at all. Here's hoping yours was just faulty 😬

@@Off.Track4x4 Let us know, I had two of them in different vehicles, they both did the same 😂😂, below is the official response from Renogy Support, when I questioned them about hot hot it was, it appears they are quite happy with it running up to 80C !!!!!!!, not in my vehicles it ain't, 80C is too dangerous for a device to be running at in a closed canopy. Response: Using the DC HOME App, check the internal temperature of the charger. If it exceeds 176°F (80°C), disconnect the charger and assess the temperature at its location, ensuring proper ventilation to prevent overheating.
