    Solar generator is great but the petrol generator is an absolute lifesaver when camping off grid and in bad weather.

    My neighbor purchased the MXR2800 watt last month from the same company. Yup, impressed.

    The petrol generator seems very effective. Would consider having one as home supplement.

    That is one hell of a setup. I like it except for the AC200MAX. It does charge quite slow when compared to other power stations.

      Thanks Matt🙏 Yep I keep it topped up when driving and use my build in system for everything but the AC and I can be off grid with no solar for a week I don’t say anywhere for more than 3 or 4 days so it work well for us but in summer the 350w portable solar panel helps too 👍 thanks for watching 🙏👍😁

      @@onemanandhiswhippet the make is Blackline and this brand is in America, there is a Rally car shop in Britain that sells them and loads have recommend them and compared them up against Honda etc, its made in China by the looks of it so I asked the shop that sells them do the sell spare parts and they said yes… Also I think the shop that sells them in America have most probably asked China to produce them to a high standards and this what happens… It cost £634 as I had the fob start one also they make great quality smaller ones. Also you have a cool youtube name haha, I used to keep lurchers and the pit-bull x greyhound type they was awesome workers but took some handling.

    Great video, am I the only one to say that a generator does my head in at a camping spot,it's all nice and quiet then out it comes, positioned away from there van and pointed towards everyone else, there goes the peace and quiet. Not really a thing for stealth camping.

    A great review Dave....My parents are interested in a solar generator for emergency purposes. They are considering a solar home instilation or a portable option. Could you do a video on how you use your portable solar generators when your power is down in the future, thank you. Don't feel pressured to make said video if you don't want to 😊....Hello Jo, Louie & Rosie 💜

    A major problem with lithium batteries is there life span compared to relying on petrol generators. My ebike battery lasted just under two years. And I hadn't miss treated it.

    • @onemanandhiswhippet
      @onemanandhiswhippet  Рік тому +1

      That’s true you need lithium phosphate for longer life and that’s what’s in the A 200 max 3000 recycle charges before the capacity drops to 80% 👍👍

    Personally i would stick with petrol kr diesel or multi fuel gas generators.
    These solar only work in good sunlight are ver expensive to boot. So you need a way to charge them .
    Petrol diesel being more versatile can use them anywhere easily.

    Hi Man, I've just bought a maxpeedingrods mxr3500, literally out of the box 30 minutes ago.
    Now, I'm confused as the user manual says it must be earthed but other reviews and yours are not showing the unit earthed. Which is correct may I ask? 🤔 thanks. Cliff.

    • @onemanandhiswhippet
      @onemanandhiswhippet  Рік тому +2

      Hi Cliff it can be used unearthed but it is safe if it is linked to an simple earthing spiking into the ground
      I don’t bother tho
      I just ensure it’s not used in wet conditions and my electrical tools are well insulated 👍 hope that helps 👍
