Carnt beat a coastal stop over, done it a lot this summer, tend to stay more inland come winter. Stay safe 🚐 🌳
@@MrRanDomUk Defo 😄 I do tend to mix up between coast and green, but coast always seem to have the greater pull 🚗😀
Circulating air can help with condensation, so a fan of some sort just to move air might be worth a try.
@@TheGazzatron941 hey Gazza, yeah I I saw a little fan device that you can put on your dash that does this - I may need to invest in one, cheers :)
@zafiracamper Just any old fan will do, doesn't need to be heated if you're on about those 150w fans I think you're on about.
A nice video Matt, you blended in your new gadgets quite well too,,,, i was looking at those heated blankets to save fuel on my diesel heater,,,,, i might just try one now,,,, good video
@@STTC cheers dude :) How much power does your batts have? You might be able to get away with a proper electric blanket 😁
This one’s awesome if your wattage poor 😁(you’ll also want a double I’m thinking ;) my one’s a small single)
@ Good point,,I have x2 160Ah batteries
@ Google tells me that’s about 3k watts for each battery 😱 You defo are not wattage poor 😂
@ I’m swimming in wattage,,,,too much if anything,,,,
@@STTC 😂😂 dude you sooo are….. you could maybe go for 7 electric blankets on full settings….
Gotta keep cozy in winter 😂😂
Good to see you car camping again, full of great gadgets. Interesting about the headache, I get that if I have more than a couple of coffees a day, yet can drink tea all day.
@@Bug-in-the-green it was sooooo good to be back out again 🙏 I do love a gadget and always on the look out for more 😂
Yeah I used to drink alot of Tea, but became super lazy and switched to just coffee, altho I do now drink only herbal teas after like 7pm 🥳
That breakfast rolls looked banging , heated blanky 😍😍 could do with one of them ❤
@@FieldviewAdventures the worse thing is, I was too full so didn’t have the dim sum lunch in the end, so could have had the eggs as well 😭
And dude 8w!!! It’s soooo cool 😁
Properly enjoyed this mate, really cool camp set up, great location and some brilliant filming too! Bravo 🤟
@@mywildadventures88 cheers dude 🚗 I’ve been looking at this spot for sooo long, I’m so happy it was as awesome as I hoped it would be 😁
@zafiracamper brilliant, nothing better than finding a good spot 😄
@@mywildadventures88 yes there is….finding another one 😆
Another enjoyable vid, thanks for uploading. I've just bought a small van few weeks ago after 18 months lurking vids like yours) and am converting it. Not slept in it yet but use it for working in. Have a bed and desk in it. I've considered vlogging but have the same nervousness of being witnessed recording and not sure I have anything interesting to share. Love the 12v Rice cooker, excellent idea. I have a blanket but it draws about 110w, but it is amazingly warm. I'm also looking to set cameras up facing rear as my van has no windows, just a vent and a curtain to the driver area. I'm not really able to get out and camp yet (family responsibilities) but hope to in the new year. Keep vlogging!
@@Neemulus oh sweet - your project has commenced.
Ah see I would recommend vlogging tho… despite my nervousness of being filmed, in day to day life, doing this has has a massive impact over the years.
I have a nervous stutter and pre UA-cam hated and shyed away from public speaking at work…. Doing this has totally reversed that, now I have the confidence to deliver training sessions to 100’s of people and actually volunteer to do it most the time 🙏
Thing is, if you “film what you do” then you have nothing to lose - just don’t film for the sake of it type thing 🙏
Thank you for another brilliant video!! Hope all is well, take care of yourself
@@peterdnreynolds777 many thanks Peter 🙏
A very enjoyable video, thank you. I don't know how you manage to eat tall that food. I haven't been car camping for a while. I don't fancy being in my car for 12 - 14 hours a night. I will start again in the new year. ilona
@@meanqueensuperscrimper8908 funnily enough when I used to do canned food before, I would often get comments about the amount I ate 😆
I’m strangely very comfortable in the back of my zaffy for hours on end :) It’s like my little cocoon 😃
I pretend im on a video call when i get caught talking to myself 😂
@@Billy88ldn ah the old Bluetooth headset trick 🧐😎
@zafiracamper gotta throw in some arm movements to make it look like your deep im convo
Great video Matt, you should have let me know you were coming to my neck of the woods. 👍🏼☕️
@@russroberts7005 cheers dude 🙏 ah sorry dude 🥹
So good to see you out and about bud and on what looked like a delicious car camp 😋 Some cracking wee gadgets you have there, especially that blanket. Great find. Keep em coming chief.
@@SettingTheHookUK cheers Mick 😉 and with Xmas coming, I need to find more gadgets for my Xmas list 😆
@zafiracamper it would be rude not to haha 😆
@@SettingTheHookUK 😆😆
Great idea for the condensation testing Matt, should make for some excellent content 👊
BTW, looks a great fishing / car camping park up
@@dukeonthewater tbh I’m surprised I haven’t thought of it sooner 😁 Just a tad annoying it’s not like my other vids that I can film on the drive on a Sunday afternoon 😂 this one will take a month of two of car camps to achieve 🚗
@@dukeonthewater defo dude - all those cars at the end were fishermen, quite a few were on the beach :)
Spot on Matt... I've missed your car camps almost as much as you have 😆
I'm so pleased your knee is getting better👍👍
Man, I could almost taste the coffee myself 😋...shades of 'Little Camper'👌
I'm gonna have to get myself one of those rice cookers...might get me one for Chrimbo 🤔
@@h.bsfaithfulservant4136 many thanks HB 🙏 This one felt sooo good and I’m super glad I didn’t have to rush back to my parents (like I normally do) so the extra time in bed to chill was awesome ❤️
Ah yes, this actually was the idea for this coffee set - a spot of ASMR 😎
And this lil rice cooker just became awesome / much more left to test 😁
Glad to hear that knee is on the mend 👍👍👍
@@BonesAndButtons cheers dude :) Actually finally have the physio initial phone call tomorrow - so be interesting to see what they say :)
😃😃😃👍👍👍 cheers mate. I m the same when vlogging in front of people 😂 .i also fort about making a video testing stuff to rid condensation but I’m glad you are doing it as I did not want to make the vid, I just wanted the answer 😂 great video 👍
@@Bongoben you have no idea the Amount of times I want to do a you style walk by - I have to restrain my thumb 😂
You can do it too dude :) Mines gonna take ages to make as can only test on car camps and only manage 1 or 2 a month at the mo 😭
@ 😂 . To be honest mate I fort it would be a good idea for a vid but was only thinking about it if I ran out of campsites, so will leave it to you 👍
@@Bongoben actually you’re right - I’ll do that vid… and then that frees you up for a stealth van camp vid 😎 woop woop
@@zafiracamper 😂 maybe one day . 👍
@@Bongoben do it do it 🥷
Matt, Yet again another grt/ informative video .I do enjoy all the gadgets you review & how you set up your car. With that in mind not long now till I have the funds to buy a Van ( I m going to do a NO BUILD BUILD). With your 10% reduction code I bought myself a’ R600 power station’ Allpowers ; what kettle would work for me ?🤔👋🏴Jan …glad your knee is better.
@@jansweeney1333 many thanks Jan 🙏 and great to hear you got to save some £££s ❤️
Well, my current kettle is a proper travel kettle and uses a smidge over 600w, you could use it on the 600, but I think will take a fair chunk out the capacity - depends then what else you need it for and if you can keep it charged on the go?
My first kettle was my trusty 12v kettle :) that one used far less power, I think 100w’s or so? But takes ALOT longer to boil :)
@ thanks for that …ok I ll try the later out ; ttfn 👋🏴Jan
@@jansweeney1333 if you go back a
Few years one of my oddly moat viewed video was of the 12v kettle - this was made before I’d actually used it on a car camp :)
Matt I also car camp and could do with that table you use inside.. I've looked on your Amazon link but couldn't find it.looking forward to your future videos regarding the condensation test... Keep it up my friend love these videos
Rich
@@thibor1975 cheers Rich and you know what - I’ve never been able to include it on my Amazon list as it’s been out of stock for like ever BUT I’ve just checked it and it’s there 😱
It’s this one :)
amzn.to/4i8Pzq6
Just ordered it and the usb electric blanket going to use it with electric underblank.. like a toasted sandwich 🥪..car camp on the coast at weekend 👌
@ a toasted sandwich - now your just making me jealous 😂 have a great one dude and of all the years I’ve been asked for a link for my table, you are the only person that’s been able to buy one ❤️😃
Good to see you out and about again. :) You will having to go north for new beaches soon.It's great that your knee is on the mend 😃
@@markwhalebone751 defo dude - Kent js very nearly done 😄 Actually had first chat with Physio today and will have first actual appt next week ❤️
Please try and keep these long vids coming man👍
@@TheUneducated1 🙏 many thanks. I I think in reality I’m hoping for 2 car camps a month at the moment - major problem with this time of year is that I have to take annual leave so I can at least get some sun time in 😁 That said, that doesn’t include couples ones, and this is something we defo need to do more of and also still need to convert Mrs H micra so she can do car camping too ❤️
think ill get one of those heating matts if it has your approval haha
@@MancavetoOutdoors defo dude - they are perfect for car camping - especially if your on a wattage budget 🚗😎
@@zafiracamper oh i defo on a wattage low hahaha
@@MancavetoOutdoors I would imagine a proper electric blanket would be a tonne better, but they would draw 10x plus the wattage. This worked so well 😁
@@zafiracamper i only got the baby ecoflo 240 so something like this would be better for me till i upgrade
@ ah defo dude - I didn’t include the bit where I said I’m going to start taking the 200 with me to power the blanket and then can leave the dash cams on all night too 😄
Interesting about the heated blanket.Lots of reviews say it's rubbish. We have thought of getting them for camping.
@@salan3yeah I had read those ones too, but went for the punt 😁
For me it’s the fact that they are sooo low in watts - I mean 8w is like the same as a phone on charge, it’s perfect for people who don’t have beast level
Power stations, but it defo gets nice and warm 😎
I had used it at home at first on the sofa, and the only issue that Mrs H had with it was that it wasn’t double sized, so it’s a small single, but if inside sleeping bag it’s plenty large enough :) and something else I did which forgot to say in vid was that when I actually went to bed moved it lower down the sleeping bag… as that way gave my tootsies a little heat too ❤️
@@zafiracamper Thanks Great to actually hear some one who has used it.
Another car dweller said that she makes her window coverings with black wool on one side because that prevents condensation. Could you test that out for us?
I use black weed control fabric, dead cheap from B&M, works a treat
@@BonesAndButtons I think this is basically the same premise as my current blackouts :) These are same as Scott has said :) Weed fabric and cardboard :)
@@scottjones6463 snap dude 😁
@@zafiracamperhaha just got to the end of the video now where you mentioned it! Happy days 👍🏼
@@scottjones6463 when I first made these I actually made one for the front window too 🤔 Never used it on camp as realised I didn’t like the idea of having ALL windows totally stealthed up…. That said I’m wondering if a half blackout for front would act as an absorber 🤔
How much power did the CPAP (WH) take?
@@salan3 ah yes in the end wasn’t the 90w I thought it was, seemed to be 20w per inhale :) So went to bed with 64% and woke up with 30% :)
I think it was you that’s mentioned the 12v lead in the past? I did consider this, but as I have the 700 on car camps too, I’ve started to use that for my morning routine now 😁
@@zafiracamper Thanks I would still suggest getting the 12v lead if you can. That way you can always plug into the car in an emergency, but I found it did use less poer on 12V (not much).
@@salan3 ah yes true, wouldn’t that drain the car batt overnight tho :(
@@zafiracamper Well I havn't found that but depends on the capacity/state of your battery lol. We use caravan batteries when camping and a 110AH lasts more then three nights no prob even with humidifier on. That includes charging phones etc during the day.
A 72WH pack I have lasts nearly three with humidifier on. Thats with the NHS CPAP on 12V (I have BAD sleep apnoea!)
I would suggest you work out the actual WH used as it is perfectly pos to use a USB power bank for one night (in my case a 35WH one would do with a cheap 'buck convertor to raise to 12V. A cheap and small 'backup'?
What camera do you use Matt?
@@BeyondTheHorizonxx Hi ya, well 2 main camera and then my phone.
My main in car talky shots are on a Sony ZV1 and then my outdoor talking and b-roll shots are mostly on a Go Pro 10 :)
But I also shoot the pan shots on my iPhone 13mini (on 60fps mode) and then I have the new dash cam cams (which I think worked realllyyy well in this vid anndddd the final cam is on the CarPlay thingy, which I sometimes use in vids) 😁
