Connecting my Maxxair Fan to the Bluetti Power Bank

The inspiration to try this project again comes from Christi at @TinyTexan Adventures on KZfaq.
Christi once told me that she took inspiration for her van build from me which is such a nice compliment! Today I’m returning the compliment because her video on connecting her Maxxair fan to her power station inspired me to finally get this done.
Back in 2021 when I bought my Promaster van and decided to do a minimal-build conversion the Maxxair fan was one of my first big projects. I did try to connect it to a 12V plug but it didn’t work and to be honest I think I had the wrong kind of plug. So I moved on to more fun projects and here I am 3 years later with a fan that I can manually open as a vent but can’t use for it’s intended purpose to circulate air.
Last weekend I was watching Christi’s video and she made it look so easy that I realized I had no excuse! So today I’m taking you along with me as I buy the supplies and get this project done!
Go over to Christi’s channel Tiny Texan Adventures and give her some love. Thanks Christi!
Be Kind,
Adelina

AWESOME, Indeed! Great Job, Adelina! I'm reminded of all the "worrisome projects" in life that just happened to be exquisite opportunities for gaining self-confidence and appreciation. No more putting them off, for me. Does it need to be done? Let's see if it makes sense to start it TODAY. Off to wash the kitchen curtains 😆😆😅 -V

Congrats on hitting the You Tube big time!.....Don't let it get to your head and forget about us common folk...I look forward to your review of the Bluetti because I've got my eye on one. I don't trust a lot of vanlifers reviews because they do a whole bloody commercial on power stations, and will never admit to getting it for free. You..I trust...So enjoy all that power! 🙂

I'm very impressed by your approach to building out your van. I've been wanting to do a similar build, but I'm a retired guy who doesn't have a lot of money. By going slow and steady, you're spreading out the economy of it. I enjoy all of your videos because you have a great attitude and easy going style. You do have an advantage over me in that you have a home to return to, where I would have to live in my van build while doing it. Keep up the fantastic work. Hugs from Colorado.

Great job! You are a force Adelina!🤣 I’m still trying to catch up with all your older videos and came across your clean the shed out one with the pj and banana loaf recipe with it so I’m about to give it a try in muffin form (I’ll obviously adjust the baking time). Always look forward to my Adelina Adventure fix! Thanks for all the smiles and inspiration. Still don’t think I could handle life in such a rainy spot in our beautiful country but it has its own charm I’m sure. Be well and have a wonderful week! Thank you for my moments of escapism 😉.

If the bluetti is left on 24/7, will the battery run itself down without any of the items turned ON? Or do you need to turn the power station off each time?

@myBIGtinyhouselife 2 ай бұрын

I don't know. I turn all my power banks off when not in use. I do t imagine they use much power in standby mode.

@CindyCaVANas 2 ай бұрын

@myBIGtinyhouselife I just wonder because if I place the battery under my bed in the back with everything plugged in, the juice can be instantly available without needing to reach or go to the back of my van to turn it on each time it's needed. Thanks for sharing. Maybe I should put it to the test. 🤔 🙋‍♀️😊
