I bought an ALP, based on your review. I’m very happy with the purchase

You're definitely doing a great service with this KZfaq channel - thank you

When you said "new bigger Jackery" I think I smiled for the first time since about a week ago. Very excited to see all these new products being reviewed on your channel.

Wow! I only discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago. I've watched many of your postings. I have a question unrelated to this particular video. I am a senior and lung cancer survivor with one lung left. At 71 years old I still love to go camping and trout fishing. I have had to downsize because of finances and medical bills. So I no longer have a camper and pickup truck to pull it. But I have a small car now and a wonderful All Season Kodiak tent. My power needs are not much. I love camping off grid boondocking here in East Tennessee. I don't need Refrigeration. The cooking I do I does not require any Refrigeration. I carry a lot of dried things I dehydrate a lot of my own vegetables from my garden and I can process a lot of the meats and venison that I kill each year. My main requirement for electricity would be to keep my cell phone charged and a few lights to have in my tent and cam site. I have budgeted myself $200 for a power station. Of course I've looked at some that you have reviewed and I really like lots of them but there are so many many out there that just boggles my mind. I have looked at so many I was wondering which one you would recommend that's $200 or less. I would love to have the jackery or some of those but they just cost more than I can afford. I was given a brand new t p 60 watt solar panel that seems to be pretty good so I need one that would be compatible with that. I certainly trust your judgment and recommendation and I love watching your videos. I look forward to hearing back from you but I know you're a busy man and probably have thousands and thousands of comments to review. You have a good day and stay safe and healthy out there. Thanks, Joe

I've had one of these for a while now really like it... there is something to consider when assessing loads though... The generator is an 850w/1000w generator but it caps out at 7.1a. I was having problems with two 344w loads overloading the generator every time I tried them... turns out the load was 344w at 4.7a... so two of them was over 9a which is definitely higher than the 7.1a cap of the generator. Its the first generator i've had that I had to check amps as well as watts. They are great little generators though.

You have my infinite gratitude for reviewing the elechive And letting them know everything that was wrong with it

Thanks for the video and informing us of the supply chain issue. I heard Ford shutdown their factory for a week due to semiconductor chip shortages, which took me by surprise. Always nice to hear what is happening from those who are actually out in the thick of it.

I bought the ALP generator, its great! Not loud! Great value!

You the man. Always pushing forward to test and bring us the latest and greatest.

yeah I was one of those people that thought that this was WAY too loud on the first test but now I might actually consider it

I am getting the ALP. The noise thing was the deal breaker; now maker. Thanks for the update.

I can’t wait for the new jackery and bluetti reviews/products.

Hello Hobotech, I'm a new subscriber and just ordered the ALP 1000W generator with the free hose. Thank you for reviewing this product as I was looking for a small, efficient propane generator but didn't know where to look. I appreciate your thorough and honest reviews of the products you present. It's a comfort to have some kind of back up power source available and I prefer propane to solar. Thanks again.

I bought an Alp Propane Generator. I have a tiny camper with a 5000 BTU AC. It’s the perfect size to run my AC or charge my battery. I already have a 20# propane tank on my camper so it makes sense for a small setup and I don’t need to transport smelly gas in my car.

I ordered and received my Alp generator thanks to Lab-coat Tom. The thing's awesome. Shipped out right away - it's worked well so far and I don't find it too loud in the least. Oh and by the way Mr. Hobotech, I've been telling my mom that we're best friends for months now and there ain't a damn thing you can do about it.

I'm a few months behind watching this video, but I appreciate all of your reviews, past and present. ESPECIALLY now that I will be living full time in my Arctic Fox 5th wheel in August. Can't wait to get out there, thank you for your product reviews they really help me alot!!

I liked the live feeds! Maybe I have no social life, but I liked to see the spontaneous activity there! 👍👍

I just wanted to add... I really appreciate that you don't snub doing reviews of crowdfunding products as Will Prowse is doing. I understand the concerns he has about them, but he's kind of choosing for us in this instance as to "what's good for us" rather than helping us make an educated decision. It's his channel and he can do as he pleases, and I know he's worried about his brand, but I believe it's a mistake to think it somehow helps his viewers. I appreciate that you treat us like adults, give us the full monty and let us decide for ourselves if we want to take a chance. You know, free markets and all that 'Murican stuff! Thanks again... your thorough and comprehensive reviews have been immensely helpful to me in choosing off-grid power solutions!!! 🥰🥰🥰

I just got it after watching your first review. Very surprised how quite it is. It started my AC on my 31 foot Class C Forester without any soft start. Very satisfied so far.

I have one of these and absolutely love it. I had a Honda 1000 prior, and I don't think it is any louder. It is so nice not to have to deal with gasoline.

Hey Hobo, don’t get caught up in the freebies from these companies. We want you honest and unbiased opinion.

HobooooooooooooooooooTechnoooooooooooooooooooooooo May the Force be with You

Hi Tom and Odin! Happy New Year! It's January, so I feel like it's still appropriate to wish you a happy and well new year. I know you are hobo"tech" and your product videos are very useful and informative for nomads, homesteaders, off griders and preppers. But I would love to see more of your day in the life on your homestead. Do you have any animals like chickens for eggs?... Are you gardening? Do you have an awesome solar system that you work on/with? Maybe you do show us once in a while and I just miss it?

Not only did you do a service for the consumer with that ElecHive review, but you also did a big service for ZeroBreeze. They owe you, they really do. In the long run, a better product means better product sales and better brand name. Which means better sales of future products. 😊

I bought an Alp and I love it. CLINK

Ah, yes, that is the proper use of audio compression! Thank you! It's something I wish more KZfaqrs would do!!!

Safe travels and have fun down in Quartzsite. 🙂

Easily one of my favorite KZfaq Channels!

Tom you videos are exceptional regarding products and deals...you're the master. But your private life...and Billy's presence, assuming he's still with you... the shenanigans, off road treking, clinky...don't deprive those of us that love your personal life stories as well.....😏

Bought the ALP Generator; thanks for the code so I got a free hose! Thanks profesor 👨🏼‍🏫

Thank you for posting this video . I like that I can hear what kind of sounds the generator make's some sounds bother me more than others so your approach to sound on videos is good for me thank you .

Good to see updates of products, would like to see more updated products.

Thank you so very much, Professor, for all the updates! This information is truly appreciated! This propane gen is still on my future wish list! I did put in for the new Montek 1000 (Desert Tan!), so I am eagerly awaiting its arrival 😁 Stay safe in Quartzsite (Hi Odin 😻).

Hello. I'm a new viewer & sub and have found you to be very knowledged & integregal. I want to apologize in advance for the length of this message. I realize you provide detailed & indepth reviews & after that it's up to us to choose. I'm a 62 yo, & because of COVID haven't worked since July, and thus, a soon-to-be, solo female nomad. As a consequence I purchased an old van & attempted a "no-build build" to transition into.. which is NOT a sob story or a complaint. I'm actually totally looking forward to experiencing what so many have found to be a blessing. Anyway, I say all of that to see if you'd consider making an exception & give me your opinion of the sogens you've reviewed. I realize as one of your viewers commented "...you can't be our personal shopper..." , but it's so many to choose from & I can't afford to make a bad investment with the little finances I'm working with. So, if you were making an "out-of-pocket" purchase for yourself, which of these would you buy? I'll have minimal needs with just running (2)USB fans/small heater, laptop & eventually a small fridge, but want min 1000W. Thanks for the education you provide & for any direction you feel comfortable giving, but I'll understand if you prefer not to. Safe & happy travels!

Thanks Hobo!!... I appreciate it!!👍👍😁😎

The real problem is the governor of California needs to be recalled!

Great reviews, I have been watching your videos a while now, even to point of binge watching older ones, but just now subscribed (bad me for waiting). Unlike Will Prowse I can kinda almost understand what you are explaining and actually am learning and starting to understand a lot. I have gutted a class c motor home and I am using your reviews exclusively to decide what goes back inside of it. I don't know how to thank you for the help you are giving me. I am waiting on the portable A/C review now!! Thanks again.

Now that the manuf has duplicated your tests/equip, it may be time to throw them some curve balls with different hoops to jump thru?

Prof. Hobo, thank you for your excellent reviews and all that you do. I just picked up my first SoGen (an AC50s) and a 100w panel. Recent events have me thinking of preparedness... and given the suddenly-dwindling supply of SoGens on Amazon, it seems I'm not the only one.

Hey Tom, thanks for all the updates, looking forward to the Montek, decided not to get their portable solar panel, shipping was $8 bucks cheaper, now shipping is $82.00 to Florida :)

Serenity now, serenity now.

I bought one based on your review and I am very happy with it.

I guess it's the wide-angle lens but that looks further than 7 meters (23'). Even with the van off to the left, it looks further away.

Fantastic updates! Great that you got codes extended/reinstated! Can't wait for the new product reviews! That air conditioner looks fascinating. An exciting season coming up. How long will you be away/no videos? Have a great time! Safe travels. Hugs and kissies for Odin and Thor! ODIN!!! and THOR!!!

Please show us how to drain the oil and review the parallel capabilities. Thank you

THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK...............................................................................................................................................................................................................!

Thanks for all the updates Sir. I got that ALP and it is what I wanted for the price. It’s cool by be. Don’t have to lug around extra gas either..I don’t think they can make a silent motor yet LOL.. ref to the zero breeze it took me for ever to get it and it does blow cool air. But in a 100 degree vehicle it’s just to small to keep up. But I love that big little monster 🥶🎩

Thanks for the updates. Have a fun trip!

Thanks for the updates and hope you enjoy your trip

I was listening to the video in my car; not watching, and that gunshot sfx at the end damn near gave me a flashback.

Quartzite- No Bob? No man haters club this year? It won’t be the same!

It is July, I just ordered the generator and the hose is still free with using his code

You could also use a sound reducing box for your generator. I prefer to deal directly with the manufacturer whenever I can.

Sold out.

Yoww I feel very fortunate after hearing about all the delays😳 I have recieved 4 seperate deliveries from Rockpals California warehouse(4 panels& 2 sogens all together) to my front door in Pennsylvania since Thanksgiving, each order was either 5 or 6 days from my order to having the item in hand I guess they must have been knee deep in inventory before this mess started

The tests are done in an aechoic chamber to isolate outside noise.

Nice update. Keep the good videos coming.

Thanks for the ALP update. I was on the fence about it, but now it is definitely on the list of purchases for 2021.

I bought 4 of the 170w brv panels they are knees bees. The EB240 super too. It runs Dishwasher / GE ultra sized clothes top loading But peak both run at 950-1000 watts. If EO 17 the load on DC is shut off but AC works. I tecommend buying their 100' extension power Red/Bk with connectors to move into full sun. The season changes shadows from house trees etc. bvr 53 freezer/fridge in test is spot on. Once it reached -2° C it uses less power. Close lid all the way. Oops it runs when lids open all day long. It ices up too. My bad. BV stuff worth it. Expect grid problems real soon.

One of the two 180 watt solar panels arrived badly damaged. Hope that I don't have to wait until March for a replacement.

Nobody's perfect. Great work fixing your testing methodology.

Thanks for the updates

Sound is generally measured at 1 meter. Speaker efficiency for example is measured at 1 watt and 1 meter.

For the work you put in to edit the high audioi levels to lower, THANK YOU ! Nothing more irritating than watching a late night video and literally waking everyone in the house up from volume blast. Could not count the channels I have unsubbed from because of that problem.

I'm looking forward to buying this propane unit..I wanted something I haul inside of my Van..Gasoline just wouldn't work..the fumes and oder ..

Glad to hear Zerobreeze responded positively. It seemed they were going to go into hissy fit mode over your review.

Oooo I’m looking forward to this. When I first saw this review I was interested in this one.

Problem is you can't run much on 1000 watts peak. Also if it needs warranty service yo have to send it to California. No local service. They are supposed to be coming out with a 2000 sometime peak/start up power but not available at this time.

Awesome video thanks !!

How many running hours at 50 % load before the engine dies from engine wear assumming maintenance was done when required ? I would like to use it for about four hours per day , seven months a year , I wonder how many year before replacing is needed ?

Does anyone know if ZeroBreeze is developing this product in San Diego? Was wondering if I can just go pick it up or deal with them for service locally.

I need something like this but with a 30amp outlet

Please say you're going to re-review the elechive now that it is a finished product.

I wonder how long it would take an ALP 1000W Propane generator to charge one EcoFlow DELTA 1300? How much propane (at Sea Level)?

I like the 30 lb. Weight of the Alp, but they are sold out.

What? Meters in stead of yards! Range finder used in stead of just a tape measure? Just giving you a bad time, you do a great job Thank you.

I am interested in buying this product to charge my Delta 1300 solar generator but I'm wondering if you can confirm it will charge it? I realize this only has 850 running watts... and the Delta 1300s can pull 1100-1200 watts while charging. This is the part that concerns me. My HOPE is that the Delta 1300 would just pull what it can from the Alp generator and charge at 800-850 watts until full. My FEAR is that the Delta 1300 would pull too much wattage, forcing to shut the Alp generator down by overloading it. I'm hoping if you can test this out, or if anyone else here that has both can test this, or knows the answer? Thank you!

I'm wanting the elechive but I'll wait until you say it's worth it 😆

Fine job keep them coming

Thank you so much for this information and all your reviews. I am extremely interested in the Montez. My concern is about the company. If I buy one and have issues, will I be able to get help? I know they have a 2 year warranty, but what is the reputation of the company? Do you have any information about the company? Have they been around for a while? What is their reputation? Thanks again for all you do?

I have a duramax 1200 with that said I live in Oracle Az at kind of at the north base of Mt Lemmon. I almost had to evac because of Big fire last summer I see this could be used with my small and midsize tanks I cant haul out my 100 pound on the run. what is the warranty on this product? and if I don't have to evac do you see this as a supplement to the duramax or do you think it's overkill though I do believe 1 is none and two is one for most equipment.

Who knows if it will ever be in stock again?

and beer and whiskey.

Can we use the BougeRV panel with the Leoch ??? How can anyone not want the Leoch? Am I missing something? There is no better bang for the buck. The panels are a different story.

Any plans to do diy solar setups? Would be cool to see codes for batteries, charge controllers, etc.

Mr HOBOTECH, even with you updated video. You still didn't show us how to change the motor oil of this propene generator. It is hard to do that? How do we know how much oil for that Generator?

Enjoy your travel!!!!

It would be nice to get one but they have been out of stock for a while.

Awesome Info, Now on the new Maxoak Bluetti, Is it a updated version that fixes some of the stuff for the Ac200p? As far as what I am talking about, its the following, the power usage while on using up to 71 watts? The firmware ability actually being implemented to fix some of the screen issues and misspells, The option of battery expandability. I loved you 2 reviews on pre production models and was about to buy one, but listening to you and others those things kept me from buying. Thanks a ton, Mike from Chandler AZ

Love your show

Can you run it with natural gas hooked up to the house?

Great review. Have a great trip!

look up the Bluetti EP500 5,100WH

Good Morning HT...I’m in Quartzsite right now until mid April Woooohoooooooooo

My biggest gripe with Generator manufactures is the sound tests info. They always test these with no load. This gives the customer a false purchase info. Unless you plan on running your generator with no load all the time....imo

The Audew code works.... But the price is not at $217 as it was a few months ago.... It is now $271.... I'm on the fence now to purchase a second one.

Tom, can you do a USA made only product review,,, If possible,,, lol,,, be well out there!

Honda 2000 generator is still much quieter.

ENJOY HT ✌🏾🤎
