  • BONUS VIDEO - In this week’s video, we put the ALLPOWERS R1500 through its paces and show you what it can do. We show how it can be controlled from the mobile App, as well as its capabilities. Living in our NARROWBOAT floating home off-grid, we’re always looking at ways to save on power and we think this could well be the solution! This portable power station would benefit not just live-aboard boaters, but people with caravans, campervans, campers and much much more.

    If you’re new to our channel, just a little introduction. We are Julie and Martin and in 2021 we sold our house and gave up our jobs, to live full time on a narrowboat. We bought our 2004 narrowboat Rhapsody in Blue in the September and have been living full time onboard ever since. We hadn’t intended on vlogging, but recorded videos for ourselves and family and it has escalated into the weekly vlogs you see today, so lovely to have you all onboard! ❤️
    Please join us as we continuously cruise the inland waterways of the UK, sharing our cruises and adventures with you all, thank you! ❤️
    We’ve made a couple of playlists for you too, one with all our favourite cruises and the other is all of our vlogs from the beginning, so you can binge watch to see where we’ve been so far! There’s also a walk through of our narrowboat home too, come inside and see how we live. ❤️

      Hi Nigel, we wouldn’t normally do something like this, but we were looking at getting one of these, we’d been looking around at all different makes and models, so when this came along it made sense. Since we took it out of the box we have used it constantly, so our boat batteries are now only running our fridge and freezer, so this is fantastic for us and we think may be beneficial to other boaters too. Thanks Nigel! xx

    Haven't seen this brand before. I'd love to have a small one in case of a winter electric outage. My gas furnace won't work without electricity so I'd have no heat. With something like this I could at least run a small heater to at least keep one room comfortable for me and the cats. Maybe someday! On a boat it seems like a necessity. ❤

    @landbk5015 Месяц назад +1

    I, personally, don't see a problem with you doing reviews for free items in return. At least we get a truthful review.
    This type of kit is really useful, not only for leisure use, but also home use e.g. if you live in an area with frequent power outages and poor mobile signals. Most new Broadband connections do not use a landline, so if there is a power cut and your router goes down, as in our case, we would have no phone in an emergency, even a mobile. My wife has a heart condition, so Vodafone gave us a rechargeable power pack that powers the router in an power outage and a landline phone plugs into the router. What the idiots who decided to phase out the use of land lines did not consider is the router is of no use on cordless phones because the base unit needs mains power for them to work. So, I had to get a corded phone to plug into the router to make sure we always have a phone in an emergency, but lost the flexibility of the cordless phones dotted around the house, which also act as intercoms.
    I hope this may be of use to someone about to switch broadband supplier and have similar power and mobile signal problems.
    Thanks for your review.

    • @JulieandMartinonRIB
      @JulieandMartinonRIB  Месяц назад

      Hi Col, most tunnels are quite drippy, but Crick tunnel is renowned for being very wet! It’s natural drainage from the earth above, Crick tunnel has fields above it, so when we’ve had a lot of rain it drains through, otherwise there would very too much weight above the tunnel. Most of the tunnels along the canals are over 200 years old! Thanks Col xx

We definitely will not make a habit of it, and will certainly not go down any sponsorship routes or advertising products that have no relevance to life off-grid! Since taking this out of the box, we’ve hardly touched the boat batteries, in fact, the only things that now run off of the boat is the fridge and freezer, everything else runs off of this and our old little Jackery we have.
