    According to Amazon, this blanket is not available.

    • @SuburbanCamping

      Yes, I noticed that. Sorry it is not available, but I only recommend products I actually use, so rather than listing a link to a product that is available, I provided the link to the blanket I use. As I pointed out in the video, they are simple devices, so I am sure some of the other options available will work well.

      @@SuburbanCamping I've tried three other 12 volt electric blankets - none of them were any good. Sent 'em all back.

      Sorry to hear that. Guess I got lucky with the RoadPro. Perhaps you might be able to find one at a truck stop?

    I may be wrong but I think you are the only true Suburban Camper on UA-cam. I'm glad you are still out there. I understand how much work goes into posting content on UA-cam. No matter how much time in between postings just keep it up.

    Thank you very much for this video, I have always used wool blankets in conjunction with my sleeping bag that will keep me comfortable to 0°F. The only cold part would be my face haha. This will definitely make it way more comfortable.

    I use an electric blanket under me. Heat rises. I also turn it on well before going to bed so when I do go to bed, everything is toasty warm. I generally turn off my electric blanket when sleeping. I just use a very warm sleeping bag. A sleeping pad designed for winter weather is extremely important. An inflatable air pad will suck the heat away from you. Hopefully everyone knows that.

      Great advice! I will try the "under method". Yes, insulation below is very important! I have mats on the floor and my 4" mattress does a good job. I have thought about getting a warmer sleeping bag, but mine is so comfortable, I don't think I can get away with it.

    This is exactly what I needed for my trip New Year’s Eve. Also, I use a pillow case as a hat while sleeping. Warm, when doubled over, and comfortable.

      You are welcome . I’d be interested to know why you went deep cycle instead of lithium for the battery.@@SuburbanCamping

    • @SuburbanCamping

      I did not know lithium was an option! I will check it out!

    You know you can use the auxiliary battery as the auxiliary power and when u start the truck you can have the battery charge with a switch

    I’ve heard on the other channels that if you use electric blankets and plug them into your car, it will drain. Your battery is best to use like a separate battery that’s not in the car which of course is more expensive that’s probably the way I’ll go to keep from killing my battery in my car.

    • @SuburbanCamping
      @SuburbanCamping  10 місяців тому +2

      Yes, you should definitely not use your car battery to power the electric blanket.

    To be fair... if you have to check to see if your electric blanket is still working... I don't think it's working 🤷‍♂️
