Same here driver

Same here driver! Bob’s timing was perfect on this review because I’m about to take my granddaughter out with me for a few weeks. And as you know the refrigerators in our trucks are not big enough for two people. Shawn , Giltner driver , Redmond oregon

Hoss believe it or not..... The over the road truckers are the original nomads..... We learned to live in a small box for months at a time all the while doing our job..... 4.5 million miles and cancer got me 2 years ago... Retired now. The things the OG's could teach the newbies!!!

Thank you for keeping this country going Sir! 🇺🇲

I have to write this.... protesting works, it gets the attention it needs, it caught mine when the truckers were protesting in Canada but I still was clueless of their value in our economy. Fast-forward to the food crisis loomimg and now I am seeing it!!! Why isn't this common knowledge? At least my dad is very friendly with everyone that he is around where ever he goes, so I know he's made up for at least myself. I have & do practice safe driving around truckers & give them their space but now I know a little bit more of that lifestyle & I value them more. I had a conversation once accidentally without knowing who he was, we were traveling as a family & my husband & I were dining next to a truck stop while the children played & am older man sat close by & we started friendly conversation, told me about his family, I told him about ours, his oldest played football, cannpt remember if he was drafted for pro or not , also told me about his wife not wanting to travel with him, preferred to be home, but I didn't realize then the challenges of being a truck driver. Very nice man. GOD BLESS truck drivers.!!!

Could you give more details about this or maybe do a video? I am getting a small ?solar system set up for a tiny house on land. Trying to figure out refrigeration. Fridges that are propane are out if this world expensive!

GOD BLESS truck drivers!!! My uncle owned public buses for city transportation, I was about 9 or 10 maybe, I had plenty of space to sit in the front in the co-pilot area but the bus would be packed. He'd charge the people the tariff, give them change back if necessary, so it was his way of spending time with me. Have a wonderful time with your grand-daughter, I'm 50+ years old & I'll never forget my uncle & riding in his bus.

WhT about the companion 60 litre fridge? They also have a duel zone, 75 litre fridge freezer as well. Maybe too big, I don’t know.

that battery is expensive though

I'd buy the Iceco way before I'd buy that☝️

Holy moly! That video was insane! 😳

Dont mean to be a buzz kill, but I noticed that set up on Amazon for $661.

Ugh, well damn lol.

Wow! Cool! I bought the same cooler without an extra battery and solar panel for $459. I love this cooler! I use it all day on solar and run the battery at night.

Mystics Haven I got a little busy and wanted to write back. Maybe your deal isn't as bad with the second battery. I ended up getting that deal I mentioned in my initial comment but not at $661. I got a unit on Amazo with $ 200 off coupon, 1 battery and a solar panel for $459 like the other guy who commented on here.

@@hopeheavenonplanetearth1417 I ended up getting that same deal to my surprise this morning. Lucky us.

I forgot to say thank you for taking the time to make this informative clip.

Well, as far as battery power stations that can charge off solar or ac power, there are a lot out there that will run a window unit. The question is how long they will run it for. If you get a 2000 wh (watt hour) power station and your window unit pulls 500 watts, it will run for about 3.5 hours, due to power losses of running the ac inverter. The easy way to figure out how much watts your window unit pulls, but not very accurately, would be to look at the manufacturers label and find the voltage and amps it says is max, and multiply them together and that is the highest wattage it should take to run it. Then if you take that number and divide that into the Watt hours a power station has, that will tell you about how long it will run for if you have nothing charging the power station. More accurate way would be to buy a KW (kilowatt) meter or wattmeter from a hardware store or online like on amazon, plug it into the wall and plug your window unit into the KW meter and see how much watts it takes to run it on high speed. If it runs a full hour that is Watt hours. most small window units take around 500 to 800 watts to run. Then the inverter on the power station will also need to be at least a 1000-watt inverter with a surge of 1500 watts to power the window unit. The biggest battery power stations tend to be around 3000 watthours so you could get up to 6 hours of run time for the window unit with one of them. Bluetti has the AC300, ac200max and a bigger one called Ep500 ir Ep500pro. Ecoflow has the ecoflow dalta max, and ecoflow pro and a lot of other smaller brand name ones are out there.

@@jw3843 Thank you very much for taking time to reply with such a detailed answer. I used to be a master carpenter building custom homes and we always subbed out our electrical work to two companies only. I hate messing with electrical but I need to take the time and learn it thoroughly. I have run a lot of wire but always have the electrical contractor install the breakers, wire the outlets and light switches due to state inspection requirements and liability issues. It’s easier to just gas up the Honda generator but you got to hassle with gasoline and stay cautious about carbon monoxide poisoning. Thanks.

@@fordilac Thanks Sam.

@@VonBluesman You are welcome. I was a HVAC tech so i am comfortable with working with electricity. I put my own solar system together and that helped me learn a lot as i went. If you are planning on doing solar then you really want about double the wattage in solar panels as you think you need that way it keeps the battery charged. Of course in a hurricane they will not produce much power. If you want to be on the safe side, you might want to look into a generator that runs on propane, but that has its own risks to. but keeps you from having to go to the gas station. you just have to make sure the tank is full well before the storm to be prepared.

@@VonBluesman Also, if you are comfortable wiring low voltage, to make a cheaper and easier way to power it, you could buy a battery and an inverter and a charger for the battery, depending how you are going to charge the batteries. You will need the inverter to be made for whatever the voltage of the battery is, 12 volt, 24 volts, etc in put voltage to 120 volts or whatever the window unit takes to run, at least 1000 watt and surge of 1500 watts, Pure sine wave would be best, and just connect the inverter to the battery and run it that way. you can get a bigger battery for less money than the power stations but not as convenient as plug and play power stations. every 100-amp hour (AH) equals 1200-watt hours. So, if you want to run a window unit all day you would need at least 12-100ah batteries or the equivalent.
