How to lose a sponsorship… Again.

- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- When it comes to sponsorships, there are some really good companies to work with, and some really bad ones. Luckily one of the good ones I found is EcoFlow. They have been great to work with and if anything, understate the quality and performance of their products. The River 2 models that I used in this video have been doing great for everything I’ve used them for, and you can get your own with a 10% discount through the following links!

Unfortunately the battery company was not so honest, and even after I made it very clear what I needed a battery for, they told me theirs was a great fit for the job and even set me up with an affiliate deal so that I could earn a percentage of the sales, in hopes that I would promote it in a video even though it was absolutely the WRONG fit for what I was doing. Then after no response from my questions of what was going on, they pointed out that we had a deal in writing for me to show their battery in a video, so that’s exactly what I did!
Oh, and fun fact, saying @MattsOffRoadRecovery in a video does get you more views 😂
In this video I also built a new mount for my risers and hitch attachment, cleaned up some shoddy concrete work, and then installed some @gripstuds in the new tires I picked up for my wife’s Jeep

I would like to point out that while one company grossly overstated their products capabilities, the EcoFlow unfit actually went well beyond what it was rated for without a problem. The River 2 Pro is rated for up to 1600 watts with the X-Boost turned on, yet it went well over 1800 watts when I started the grinder and powered it into the metal at the same time. That’s something I didn’t notice until I watched the video back, and goes along with times I’ve seen my EcoFlow Delta 2 go beyond what it is actually rated for as well
That EcoFlow looks like beast. Thanks for showing it. I'm always on the lookout for a good product for vehicle camping.
I have an EcoFlow River Max and it broke. That can happen and I contacted them since it was still under warranty. They sent me a label to return it for repair and I got it back fixed a week later. One of the things that separates companies is their after-sales service and EcoFlow was perfect 10/10 for service & support.
Yeah there are cheaper options, but good luck if it breaks. I don't know about you but I can't afford to have expensive equipment turn into paperweights, BTDT, it sucks.
Try Olight they are small but powerfull flashlights
For more information ask:
Farming With Duffy Ag
I have seen many reviews of the EcoFlow products. (Keeping it Dutch, Arms Family Homestead, and others) All have been glowingly positive. I do not currently own one, but when the money situation gets better, I will get one. Hopefully before next years camping season.
@@willianvos3521 I will also chime in and say yes to the Olights. I have several, and their customer service has been excellent in the one problem I had (Shipping, not product).
It is so refreshing to see a UA-camr being honest about sponsors product. Thank you!
What rubbish, they all love drinking AG1 while playing Raid Shadow Legends, secure behind their Simply Safe home security systems, with tidy Manscaped body parts and with a full head of hair solely because of Keeps.
@@ForeverNeverwhere1 Nice burn 🔥
All of those companies email me at least once a week 😂
@@ForeverNeverwhere1 That sounds like a video idea for Casey sometime around the beginning of next April.
@@ForeverNeverwhere1 ... touche!!!
The nails in front of the carport would make my blood boil. I work construction and it's not hard to be conscious of where the nails go. I had some siding redone a few years ago and came home to find over 30 white nails in my black paved driveway and made them drive 2 hours back to pick them all up
Had the roof on the house redone. Picked up literally dozens of nails in the grass. Gave up trying and harassed them and they came and picked up most of them. You would think companies would want you to like them. I guess once the check clears they don't care.
Every roof we do gets every nail that's not fastening a bord down gets pulled and put in my pouch we do this every job and run our roller magnets around the premises. It is alot of extra work. Those little white nails are not magnetic so those have to be picked up by hand. Mucho more fun but you won't last long in my area doing shady work.
@vibratingstring
Funny you mentioned that. Just yesterday, at 9:30 in the morning, I'm in line at the gas station/convenience store and the two guys in front of me, in their work uniforms (gutter installers) each have two of those big cans of twisted tea. They looked like they were going to, not coming from, a job. Now, they may not have been drinking them before doing the job but odds are they were getting their wobble on before the work got done.
Thanks Casey. Honest product reviews are way more important than the gaslighting garbage you see on other videos. I appreciate that you don't have a script and tell it like you see it. Well done man.
You have the absolutely best neighbor ever. Comes over without telling you to fix your roof. Wow! a testament to your friendship.
Just Grumpy doing Grumpy things 🤷🏻♂️
@@CaseyLaDelle And Grumpy loves every minute of it !! Way to go Grumpy
this is not burning the bridge... this is not letting a faulty bridge exist in the first place... nicely done!!!
You should take that battery out with you and use it for what you said you was going to this winter and show their battery failing miserably at what they said it would do. Love the content keep it coming.
Yes!
I'm sure the bms would account for any fuck ups on the specs end... however being lithium, if that thing goes thermo nuclear due to over discharging....
Could be a nice lawsuit.
YES!🎉🎉🎉
But make sure you have a backup, just so you're not stranded.
Real life, (camera drop, bad battery), real product description, real honesty, that's our man, Casey. No Hollywood blather here. Keep it real Casey!
Funny, I walk down the street saying "Matt's Offroad Recovery" and I get more views too, then the guys in the white jackets show up... and I get a vacation. ;-)
See, it works!
This video was brought to you by brutal honesty, a terrifying, damn near illegal thing and far too heavy a load for the ever failing spine of our society to bear. Off to buy an EcoFlow to run a SetPower, thanks for all the good info Casey!
Appreciate the content, holding companies to their word while keeping yours, you're setting a great example
Thank you for holding these BS touting companies accountable, this a broad problem , companies will say whatever they want , make stuff up and call it fact . Frustrating since there’s 0 accountability,
Makes me think of politicians. Hired (by campaign contributions); the only qualification expected is that they lie to people and obey the rich. And we have the pharma salesmen. Telling us what a drug will do, and the person using the drug shoots to kill many victims.
I like to see you doing projects, small and big. I think you are level headed and have good takes on challenges/issues/problem I'll bet everyone can have in their everyday life.
So filming the "small stuff" in your yard is dandy by me. :)
Casey, I LOVE your integrity & willingness to share with us when a sponsored product DOESN'T perform as described!
THANK-YOU for your honesty!
The DOT here says that too, but then puts them on their own vehicles..
“Hey cement crew… bleepy words.😐 Thanks a lot”
Lost it knowing they definitely watch.
I'm literally a brand new sub & just wanted to share that you absolutely read my mind while you were grinding thru your gate... Didn't realize that I had already turned into my father. The exact words that I spoke to you thru my tablet were, "fella, you ought to be wearing your safety glasses!" To which you assured me that squinting was plenty sufficient lol! Very good stuff here on this channel. Thx!
Moral of this story with the battery vendor is, Don't Eff with Casey. You did exactly what they said you had to do. Sorry they sent a product that did not match the specs you provided, but they got what they deserve. Sucks for corporations when they deal with an honest human, as it seldom goes well. Loved the video and watching you use products that actually work for the purpose they were intended. As always thank you for sharing. Peace Out.
Matt's is a great channel. BUT, so is yours. I've enjoyed watching your channel since I found you through Matt's Off Road Recovery.
Glad to see you're a man of your word by showing the battery as you agreed to do! 😃😃😃
I went the opposite route - UA-cam pointed me to this channel, and one day I heard Casey talk about Matt, so I went off and discovered his channel. I now enjoy both!
I like both channels too. But I do miss the days when they went out on recoveries together.
@@KevinBenecke Wrong Casey. THIS Casey is in Oregon, the one in Utah we don't talk about anymore 🤣
@@ronberry5316 what did I missed with the Utah Casey?
Casey, love the content of all your videos but that is not the main reason why I subscribed. First and foremost you are a man of integrity who goes above and beyond what is expected. And oh yeah, one funny dude. Keep at it and don't ever change. Thanks
You're a good man, Casey! Always appreciate your no BS (and rather entertaining) reviews. BTW, I had a contractor do a siding and roofing project on my place a few years ago and, yup, I had to get me a big magnet like yours.
Good review on the EcoFlow, also on the previous review of the SetPower, which I bought and am totally satisfied with. Keep the honest reviews coming!
Love that you don't pull punches on the equipment that works and what doesn't, Casey! I use my stuff hard, but you use it harder, and that honesty helps ensure I don't get stuck either! Love your channel!
Your honesty about products is one of the things I appreciate about your channel
Casey I always enjoy your ramblings. Being honest and with integrity never fails. I am just building up a new 300 series Landcruiser and it is always about research and picking quality. Stay safe.🇦🇺🍺
I would trust any product reviews you give! Having an honest person actually use the product and then give a completely honest review of it, is priceless. Good job EcoFlow! If I needed a generator, I would buy one of yours for sure. Shame on the concrete company for leaving all those nails! And the battery company. Not the kind of review, you would have liked to get but you asked for it.
That battery review was hilarious and I used your idea of eye bolts on my TJ hard top but luckily it still works with a soft top because last week I backed into a limb out of mirrors view, cracked my hard top, and blew out the back window. At least a $1500 mistake 🤦♂️
as usual another great vid Casey, Matt is great but you bring something way different to the table keep it up brother
Absolutely love your ad / product placement and reviews... I watch plenty of other channels who do ads, a couple are even EcoFlo and I hate how preachy and rehearsed they sound, I enjoy the truly organic and honesty you have in your vids, its very refreshing living in the commercialized world we live in today!
Hey Casey, I love your videos! They are some great entertainment and I love your honest approach! I am in the the New Plymouth ID area. I grew up recovering vehicles as a hobby and you do have some great tips! Thanks
I love how honest you are about the products you review!! Keep it up!!!
I always appreciate a real review! I have a similar Lipo battery that I use in my camper, but I don't winter camp so it comes in the house for the winther where the winter temps aren't -20.
Really impressed with the progress, you've made in such a short time. You are nice polite, interesting videos, like the new additions, with the new trucks. I'm impressed how you don't overload your videos with commercials, we know their necessary, but not filling the entire video, hope it never gets that way, just left your buddy Matt's off-road recovery, channel, it was ridiculous, had to come here, to see something besides advertisements, hope you don't fall down that hole.
I am trying to get a handle on what you are referring to regarding Matt's advertising. The shocks were part of the build and a few seconds to mention their merch is not over doing things as you claim. One was not taken away from the content but for the sweatshirt. You do realize you pay nothing to view things on UA-cam so what is the problem with a harmless plug?
Thank you Casey I love your honest review on stuff you don't promote anything unless it is good quality.
In my opinion if a sponsor lies to you then that is on them. You were very nice about how you handled it
Casey. I think we could be best friends. We think so much a like. I’m part of a Search and Rescue team here in Canada and I rescue off-road vehicles, ATV, UTV and snowmobiles. Your honesty and respect for being for your viewers is awesome.
I have an EcoFlow River Max - works great, took it off-roading a month a go way into the boonies (50+ miles from paved roads) and it powered a fridge for 4 days, with 68% still remaining. They also have great service & support, see my comment under Caseys pinned comment.
Matt needs to mention Casey LaDelle and his heavy wrecker fleet!😁 "Bleepy words!" That needs to go on your next t 👕 shirt!
Love the honesty Casey, it refreshing. As to the content, you make it we will watch it.
Always watching young man. It is great to see you using your down time to maintain your vehicles. Good explanation of the devices you are using to do your maintenance.
Be safe and enjoy your family.
I like the subtle comment “I got some fan mail”
🤔😬
I sent you the trash pickers.
They are still being used by PLS Bend!
8:52 "Bleepy words." LOL I love it!
Definitely the best policy is to be brutally honest about products, those that live up to/exceed expectations and those that fall flat. Great video today, Casey.
Everything seems to coming very well so far. I would send the battery back with an academy award taped to it. Best imitation of a workhorse battery award!
Nice battery review, well done.
👍👊😂 Loved the battery /block part of your video! 👍👊😂🤣
Calling out the battery company was hilarious. I love your content and honesty. Best UA-camr in the business.
Casey everytime I see you do an honest review of a product, good or bad, it makes me respect you more & more ! Thank you for not being a puppet on a string.
If I could give you more than one thumbs up I would for exposing the kind of bs that battery company tried to get away with. But hey, they do make nice seat supports. Sorta... Hahahaha!!! Great video as always!
I do like the idea of having a battery back for my sleep apnea, and O2 machine.
The one I buy dies around 3 years. The small foot print is awesome. Thank you for showing and doing a review!
Project Farm, Oregon edition! Love the honest reviews!
Love the upgrades to the 10 wheeler. That truck is awesome.
Will not be long before you get to put the new tracks on the Jeep.
The carport looks great and will make life easier for the winter.
Love watching your shows.
Battery looked like it would work great in robbies daughters power wheel jeep 😂
I just wanted to say that I would totally buy the products you recommend. I love that months later your back to the fridge and power setup in the back.. long time watcher and will be.. thanks man..
I gave you a thumbs up for the Matts off-road recovery comment!
PS I would’ve given you a thumbs up anyway. 😂
We’ll there are two companies you would be using again, the battery and the concrete folks 😅. I think you handle both very professionally. I totally understand as a small business owner.
Thanks for sharing the info.
I use optima batteries there awesome but I understand needing a deep cycle cold weather battery I your line of work my old man use to be a tow truck driver takes a special person to deal with all that and still smiling keep It going casey👍 I enjoy the videos
I actually enjoyed your ramblings, most interesting - I think those battery people have pulled their hair out afterwards.
I found your channel watching Matt’s off road , I continue to watch your channel, I love your honesty…. I have a Jeep unlimited, you have great ideas. 💛
Love the honesty Casey. Keep up the great videos!
They make a magnet on 2 wheels you roll around and will pick up all the nails
Love your videos.
it's frustrating that they would lie for some marketing. If they would have just been honest, you could have still used it but for its intended purpose. Good job keeping your word though and showing it in a video. It makes a wonderful stand for mock up.
I like your brutal honesty!
I wear prescription glasses at all times when conscious and if I didn't, prolly be blind. That said, when I wore contacts and worked in a shop, I wore the safety glasses at all times. One piece of glass bead sent me to the emergency room for some precision eyeball scraping, felt like one of those concrete form nails you love so much. Just saying. You do you. Love all the content, you would look ridiculous with an eye patch.
Have you tried the Blackjack “t bone” truck tire plug kit. The tools are the heaviest duty I’ve seen, better than cheap plastic tools that I’ve had break while fighting a plug into a tire. I keep one in my toolbox and in every truck… worth a look for sure
Love the comments on the battery not being what they promised to someone whose life could depend on it. A man of your word indeed; wish you were dealing with someone similar!!! We are suffering a pandemic of false representation, selfishness, and disregard for the safety of others. You prove you are on the right side of this history! Kudos
I have that same magnet and I love it.
Gotcha a big magnet for those nails. Quick and easy
Safetyseal in the red box is my preferred route kit.
So Wise , Thank You . Thank You for sharing , what works and what does not . As we all know very few things work well at -40 . As we also know having a strong electrical system is REALLY important
I'm glad you do raise. I just started my channel , but have watched other youtubers say something is great and next time you see there vehicle, they have total different brand . No reasons why. So a person doesn't know if they are junk or just got a different sponser
No matter how much, How many, biggest this or smallest that, when you accidentally drop your Camera at the Gate project, I laughed my Arse off and nearly dropped my phone!!!
That was the best thing you filmed in all! Have a great Sunday too
Used studded tires while serving in Iceland in 1979-80. Studs worked well on ice; however, we kept 2 sets of ties. Installing studs and them removing them until next winter was seen as damaging to the tires.
It just amazes me how some people/companies have the balls to try to pull crap like this on you. They obviously do not watch your channel and know what type of a person you are. I honestly have to say, BEST BATTERY REVIEW EVER.
I don't mind sponsored videos if it is a product that you actually use and believe in. I don't have a use for something like a EcoFlow, but if I did, I would be more inclined to buy an EcoFlow over one of the other types that some other youtube hacks are promoting just so they can get sponsored.
And to the cement guys. Come on. A "real tradesman" will always clean up after the job. Wow, just wow... Just imagine if I was working on your pickup, I know you have a pickup, and I got all covered in grease and oil. Instead of wiping my hands off or putting a cover on your seats, I just jumped in and got grease and oil all over the inside. How much would you like that, how loud would you be mouthing off. Think about it!
Your splainin and day to day " gotta do" jobs are refreshing. Continue to promote the products that are good and tell us what is wrong with the bad ones.
... 'show it in a video' they said 😂
Casey, I would think that long crank on that International would concern you. I'm not a diesel mechanic, but I did spend many years operating big rigs, and thus diesel engines. A long crank is often a precursor of later issues. But I guess I am probably preaching to the choir! Just more advice you didn't ask for.
This truck does not open the fuel solenoid until it builds oil pressure. That long crank on a first start is exactly what it’s supposed to do.
@@CaseyLaDelle thanks for the clarification.
I appreciate the honesty of your videos. It's definitely refreshing
It’s in the video!
Nice work on the projects. Bit heavy the Ecoflow but understand it is a great product.
Well they quite literally paid me to make a video promoting their product, soooo….. of course I promoted their product in the video
Great video ! Like your honesty and REAL content that doesn’t get pretentious. Your bantering around with 406 is hilarious ! Must be great friends. Keep it up !
OMG, I"m howlin' at the end product review - great job! And thank you again for keeping things honest!
As always it's a great thing you do where being honest an forthright with your viewers keep up the good work
Ramble on Brotha !! Enjoy your content !!
Love working with companies who don't seem to bother reading the emails. When I tell them I work full time and do videos for fun. They'll email me asking wanting to know where the video is. lol smh
Thanks for the video
As you were grumbling about the nails scattered about, first thought was "Harbor Freight rolling magnet to the rescue", and you later proved me right. When I had my roof on my house done I borrowed my brother's to pick up the nails that the crew assured me they had cleaned up 100%. Yeah - about a coffee can later full of nails I was glad that I borrowed his (still haven't gotten my own yet). The roofing company rep came out when I called him about the nails and was, shall we say, less than enthused about the quantity of nails I picked up with the rolling magnet and made things right for me, then told me that they were going to go buy some for all of their crews to use after seeing my results with it. Regarding the battery - they were totally in the wrong since Lithium batteries can't take cold weather!!
Well... You did as the battery company required. Job done! LOL! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for being honest about shitty sponsors. I am glad you don't promote lies. I hate it when a company doesn't LISTEN to it's users. The eternal "yeah, that'll be fine" gets to me. And when you reach out and they ignore you, that's even worse. They deserve the video they got. And big Kudos to EcoFlow.
I don t say this to many bloggers you are the real deal thanks for being straight up with the battery promo my your subscribers flow like water
Grumpy on the roof. Priceless.
Casey I’m relatively new to your channel and I’ll admit to not watching every single episode. But one thing I really appreciate about you is your honesty, and this battery company’s claims are a prime example. They were just looking for some free exposure. We’ll they got it, and while it wasn’t the best for their business they pretty much had it coming.
Safety first my friend , protect your eyes next time!!!!!!
Jean Luc LaDelle says "You may test that assumption at your convenience."
IYKYK.
Also: your product makes for an adequate boat anchor.
For the nails use a magnet on a pole, just scan the area like with a metal detector. Put them in a jar. You can reused them.
Harbor freight sells a big magnet on wheels for this exact purpose.
And any contractor that tosses nails (especially in driveway) would never get hired a second time.!.
Did you miss the part where he used a magnet on wheels to pick up the nails? Wheel are better than a pole. Lol
Nice lifepo seatpost. I love it
Well you showed that battery in your video. I bet that company is not real pleased that you are a man of your word. Thanks for explaining about the generator. I just sat in below zero temperature with no electricity, therefore no heat, for about 12 hours. It's amazing how cold a house can get in subzero temperatures in that length of time. I will be buying that generator to plug my little supplemental space heater into ASAP so I don't ever have to go through that again. I'm an old lady (dinosaurs roamed the earth when I was young) and when you told how lightweight the generators were that was the selling point for me because I was afraid they would be so heavy that an old woman like me wouldn't be able to handle them. I'm glad that is not the case.
This comment is way late and all those nails got picked up by now, but I saw a rolling 3’ wide magnet gizmo at an RV park. It worked great where people used pallets as firewood in a winter season bonfire.
Casey you get an A on your homework assignment. Must lithium batteries should never be charged below 0℉, it kills them. Some newer designed Lithium Batteries from your know where, have a Battery Management Systems (BMS) with low temperature lock out to prevent charging below 0℉. That specification detail should be on battery label, as you pointed out.
EV's have heaters and coolant to keep their batteries operating. The only way this battery would work in the Jeep is: If it was wrapped in a battery blanket with a thermally controlled battery heater wrapped around the battery, and given a permeant power source to protect the battery on those days and nights the Jeep sit's unused.
Seal Lead Acid Batteries are still the best option for below zero temperature operations.
The fact i got here via a Wrecker video.. your intro is effective
Man of your word!!!! I love it. I totally support your use of a misrepresented battery as a block for seat mock-up measurements... Ha.🤣
No one gives a nonbiased review anymore. Every product has its pros and cons nothing it 100%. I guess having a sponsor I guess you're not allowed to.
Anyhow......Really liking your new tow rig! I think its bada@@.
I’m allowed to say whatever I want. I have absolutely had companies say I had to sign a contract where I can only say what they tell me to, and I tell every one of those companies to get fucked.
LOL... Casey ,, I love the way you troll in a subtle way...!!!! Lol..
The battery video is a great example...
There are only a few battery manufacturers in the world...
Most companies just slap a sticker on a battery and make ridiculous claims...
I can back this up because I managed an auto parts store and yes, there are only a few battery manufacturers in the world...
Great job Casey...!!!!!
That electric generator thing you got is awesome can't believe it has solar power charging
