    Here in the Philippines we bought 50 meters of 3/4 black water pipe,reeled it up using wire,put it on the roof for hot water..Because its piping hot in the day we bought a mixer tap and hooked up the cold and hot to that..Works like a dream!

    Consider adding a simple locking pin/bar/bolt or similar to the bracket, so that it can't be accidentally knocked off the rail once it is in place.

    Great ideas. The on and off rain sure has made progress difficult for us as well.
    We’ll be moving up there and starting our off grid build in the next couple of months. So looking forward to being on our block full time and not having to drive up from Brisbane for an occasional weekend.
    See you around Gin Gin!

    Yep - it's a real P.I.T.A. when incoming rain messes with your plans. Thank goodness for tarps.
    ps at 0:10 is that a tomato plant behind your left shoulder? It's growing awesomely well.

      Yea, we have had a bad few weeks with on and off rain. Really puts a stopper in plans 😂
      The tomatoes are growing crazy! I'll be sure to give a garden update in the next video 🤙👌

    I need one of your brackets for my hot water system. Will be keeping an eye out on your channel to get one. ( Mine hangs by a bit of rope)

      We will be sure to keep everyone updated on how the testing goes 😁 so far I'm very impressed, hasn't clicked off on us yet since the install. 🤙🤙

    Excited to see another vid from you guys :) Love the progress!! The "bathroom" is looking awesome! How do you find the SmartTek? My partner keeps telling me to go Joolca but they are a bit more exxy.

      Our smarttek unit has been great! 😃 We have had it nearly 2 years as a full time hot water supply. Simple and being a Brisbane based company it's easy to speak with an actual person if you have any issues 😂
      The bathroom is doing its job very well, we run a full size washing machine now and are looking into getting a composting toilet. But we will run everyone through the current setup in full in the next video 😁😁🙏🙏

    It hasn’t stopped raining, but I’m not complaining because I’m on tank water lol. When I saw you on the little bike I had a giggle and thought you should go for a ride lol 😂. Missed your videos good to see you back 😊

      Yea, it's been on and off for the past few weeks. It always seems to rain harder when I'm off work haha 😅

    I can't see how to get the $50 discount for the battery thanks.

    • @offgridaus
      @offgridaus  Місяць тому

      When you check out use the code offgridaus12v and the discount should be applied. I just checked it and it still works. let me know if you still have any issues and ill get it sorted asap :)

    If you want it to feel cooler in the heat, paint your roof(s) white. It’ll reflect sunlight like you wouldn’t believe. Don’t paint everything white unless you want to wear sunglasses the rest of your life.

    Looks like the garden has come in strong. Very nice.
    The weight, or lack of it, in lithium batteries always amazes me.

    • @offgridaus

      The garden is going great! Tomatoes really took off 😂 I'll do a full run down of what grew and what didn't in the next video 😁
      Lithium is crazy for the power they have and how light they are! 😍 We use Lithium in the 4wd and it's never skipped a beat
