Thanks, good to hear.

Yes, that's another rule....

It's difficult for me to do videos on running off grid, because we very rarely do that.

@@BobEarnshawMoHo Ah, I see. I'm sure I'll learn lots from you guys anyway. Thanks Bob👍

Yes, that changeover sounds good.

No idea! 👍😁

Yes thank you for the ideas, I had forgotten about the Alde air cushion. I will be mentioning a few more winter preparations.

The Ducato doesn't have side lights. The Headlights are on the left stalk.

Propane and Butane are both Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG). Propane is what you get in the red Calor Cylinders and as Autogas on the pumps at fuel stations. Butane comes in blue cylinders from Calor. Butane does not produce gas at temperatures around and below freezing, so is unsuitable for all year round camping. So you'll be OK if you have refillable cylinders.

@@BobEarnshawMoHo I really appreciate that, thanks.

Your heating does not run off solar. The solar is connected to charge your leisure and vehicle battery with electricity when you are stationary. It really depends if your whale heater can run off gas when you are driving. That I don't know.

Have a look at this, it looks like this Whale Heater can be used when driving, provide the required safety devices are fitted to the gas supply. documentcloud.adobe.com/link/review?uri=urn:aaid:scds:US:bde8b563-167b-4571-bf75-a3fb48407bbd

@@BobEarnshawMoHo thanks Bob

Yes, I said in the video, if you have Truma Combi or VarioHeat, they should run when travelling.

I think you probably could, but it would be quite a big job to do! Plus, I imagine Alde heating is pretty expensive too.

@@BobEarnshawMoHo thanks Bob

Around 10 degrees, just enough to keep the chill out.

Thanks Bob on a different episode when on site I’ve seen you top up your water tank with an aquaroll and a pump that connects to the 12v supply, what make of pump do you use?

@@ashleyjacobs3568 On my list of essential accessories, www.bobearnshawmoho.co.uk/2020/06/essential-motorhome-accessories.html?m=1 It's this one. External Water Pump amzn.to/3rfCyAM amzn.to/3rfCyAM

Thanks for the details on the pump Bob……Best wishes to you both.

I thought I explained there is a safety feature that won't allow the fridge to run on gas after the engine is switched off for 15 minutes. Additionally, the fridge cannot run on gas when the engine is running, if it is set to auto energy selection. Yes, it's safer to switch the supply off to the fridge when travelling. Please don't type in capitals, it looks like you are shouting and can it seem quite impolite.

Hi @@BobEarnshawMoHo . I think Dan is making an important that filling stations (and service areas) do not allow you to have anything running which has pilot light when you enter them. Therefore, although the fridge will be on 12V and not switch back to gas for 15 mins after turning off the engine with auto selected, the heating (which also has a pilot light) will be active throughout. Although you could argue that the danger is from the pilot light sparking when it tries to light the main flame in the appliance and that should not happen, there is a risk that it could go out for some reason and then re-ignite itself at an inopportune moment. I’m sure it’s for this reason that the rules are so strict. So I think your advice on being able to run your the heating on gas whilst travelling needs to include a warning that it needs to be turned off in advance of going into any filling station/service area e.g. by stopping at a lay-by beforehand. However, this would be difficult to achieve on a long motorway journey or you could easily forget to do it. Re. The point you picked up with Dan on the fridge having the 15 min safety feature. If you listen to the part where you said that it goes on to the 12V after starting the engine, you then jumped ahead to saying there is a 15 min gap before the fridge ignites without saying it was AFTER the ignition had been turned off. It’s obvious when you know it doesn’t happen, but when I first listened to it I understand you to be saying that after 15 mins driving along the fridge would switch to gas as well. Maybe that’s what Dan was thinking when he said don’t drive into a filling station with the heating OR fridge switched on. After saying all this, I also want to say that we really appreciate and enjoy watching all the informative videos you produce and want to give a shout out for Jenny who seems very tolerant at times. It’s helped us to make an informed choice on switching from a caravan to a motor home as well as experiencing the visits to lots of sites which we haven’t yet been to. It often feels like we’ve already been there when we arrive, especially when we happen to occupy the same plot such as number 4 at Ashridge Farm, a few weeks ago! Please keep up the good work. Martin. p.s. apologies for the shouting😉

@@martinhann9511 OK, thanks for clearing that up for me. Ideally, you should not be going into filliing stations with the gas turned on, but that safety feature exists.
