Hey everyone the competition is now closed and I'll be announcing the winner on Thursday... Stay awesome everyone
This yorkshire lad and lass
need this eco river for our van so we can take loads of pictures kayaking, walking and mountain biking of yorkshire and not worry about charging batteries.
Thanks for the video. Made me realize that having an Ecoflow is well worth the money.

I want that River 2 giveaway. It would be perfect for me. I can use all the 256Wh of capacity to charge all my gadgets.
Fab video Colin and was lovely to meet you this year at one of the festivals we’ve enjoyed this year since buying and converting our van!
Thanks to you and your family for the adventures and bits and bobs on van life.
We're looking to get into van life in the new year. Love watching the vid's. We have learnt so much from them. Keep up the good work.
Colin these giveaways are a great addition to your channel. Fantastic work mate. My Mrs says we're like twins, having the same hobbies. 👍
Trying hard to keep it clean - awesome video as always and great work with the solar panels. Niiiiiiice!
Loving the videos mate! You’re one of the main reasons we took the leap into buying our first VW Camper. Keep doing what you’re doing 👌🏼
I do appreciate the video. It does make me want to install my Ecoflow Panels by myself and make it charge my Delta Max.
Thanks for the inspiration Colin, gives me the confidence to take on upgrades to our van. 👍👍
Videos are great Colin, love your presentation style, the campervan is on order and can’t wait for it to be delivered and get going!!
Great video. Well done on installation. These eco rivers look spot on and something I could deffo use in the van.
Colin you videos are fantastic and I look forward to seeing what upgrades you do to your veedub.
Looks great. Looking forward to seeing how it works out.
Always nice to see what you are doing on your van. Just need to get the confidence to drill into my pop top.
Brilliant video as usual Colin, nice to see someone who values the little details (like keeping the solar panels level, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night knowing that they weren’t level even though I’d never see them) don’t do yourself down, neat job 👍. #ecoflow
Another great video Colin I look forward to them coming around.
Have our own van a few months, and have learnt so much from your vids Colin, really enjoy your lights hearted and fun presenting style. This Eco flow would solve our power dilemma during our wild camping trips, looks a class piece of kit. Perfect for us with no electrical knowledge, the original plug and play solution ❤❤❤
Nice to watch a RUclipsr that doesn’t live in there camper van 🚐 always useful tips for camping holidays 👍
Timely vlog for us as we’re about to replace our solar panel. Thanks Col for explaining so well 👏👏👍x
Very nice installation. Planning a van build next year and will be going down a similar route, I love the idea of a portable power pack rather than one that is fixed in a vehicle, you never know when you might need portable power for example in the shed.
another good useful video, i've been watching ever since the first lock down as I was looking for a van which I now have and I have taken some ideas from you so thankyou. Still watching every week with out missing a single one. To top it off it was great meeting you guys at this years recent van meet and we had a epic weekend, Cheers and keep up the good work.... NICE!!!!
Keep the videos coming, new to van life and picking up tips from your videos along the way, thanks
Thankyou for another video proving hoe we simple folk can build our homes on wheels! Keep ‘em coming
You’re very brave Col doing all the van mods yourself, especially on video ! I always ask the pros to do mods for us.. mostly ones we’ve seen you do. Thanks for the tips. #ecoflow looks the biz 👍🏻
Hi Colin, just got my T5 can't wait to out and about, keep up the good work 🍺🍺👍
Wow you made that look easy, love the videos and your enthusiasm for life. Keep them coming buddy
Thanks so much for the video! Really helpful! We watch every Friday and have now converted our van. We love the videos - and Branston!
Pretty clean install. I think I will do the same on my River Pro and hopefully get the same results.
Great video as always Colin. My solar panel has just failed so I may replace with a similar set up.
As usual, a great video. Entertaining and informative.
The Ecoflow would be great for the van and for using in my DJ business
Keep your the good work.
Good to see that you personally do the install and kinda shows how easy it is to use them Ecoflow power stations.
Great video as always.
I have the ctek with the smart pass added it is a great but of kit.
Another cracking video. Had my van since July. I'm looking forward to using it throughout the winter months. Might even try a wild camp.
Great video as always Colin , love your enthusiasm,presenting. Just got the one panel on my Transit self build but a Eco flow looks the Bees Knees for Backup.
Great video, your original solar install vid inspired me to have a go myself, I did and turned out great 👌 keep up the great work.
Loving the solar install! Well done very brave looks great and it works!
Appreciate the advice/inspiration, Colin! Sold my car and started converting my first Transporter, busy winter ahead. All the best. #EcoFlow
Another great video Colin you enthusiasm encourages me to tackle the same jobs
Great tip about the capacity of the CTEK I wasn't aware of that. Will be mindful of how big I can go on my PV panel!
Hi Colin…..another excellent video …I only bought my 5.1 in august after discovering your channel and you have certainly got me moving copying a lot of your mods for when we start again next spring … can’t wait to go to some of the festivals discovering my youth again ! Hopefully bump into you maybe …. You are very infectious keep the videos coming !
Colin
nice looking at sorting out my of grid system so the video was helpful.
Another great and very informative video Colin. Keep em coming.
I think solar is the next thing for our van. Thanks for the video Colin. So might be time for a coffee out of my pop top adventure mug and do some research on diy solar install.
Colin . Brillifab as always. I have 2 panels like you and was wandering how to fit on my poptop to allow cooling and you have given me the answer ..... plastic card fingers crossed on me for the eco flow too as that would be a fantastic addition ...carry on with the good work ..
Ade
We look forward to your video on Friday hope I am a winner baby that’s the truth see you bye 👍
Being a lady of a certain generation when women were taught sewing, cooking etc, I never learnt DIY stuff much to my disappointment but I love watching your videos when you do stuff to your van - a lot of it goes over my head but I still find it fascinating! At least it gives me a bit more understanding of how my own (obv. not self build) van works. Thanks for all your videos (especially with Branston - and the “girls”). 💕🐾
I installed solar into my van recently. Actually more straight forward than I first thought. Your video would have helped too. Ecoflow is really good stuff. #ecoflow Keep the videos coming Colin. Great fun!
Great video as always. Hoping to start our van-life in the new year. Thanks for all the ongoing entertainment, tips, tricks…and give-aways👍 #EcoFlow
Cool video yet again,
I've just fitted my 215w solar panel, I went for the victron ridged and victron mppt.
Since having our solar panel, fridge has stayed on continuously. Does a very good job 👍🏻
Been watching all of your videos since I got my van. So many ideas and things to learn. Thanks for the uploads!
Great video! Brilliant giveaway, good luck everyone. I’ve been looking at getting an ecoflow after watching your videos, they look a great bit of kit.
Great product. Really great to watch your installations. Just bought a t6 looking for ideas. Thanks
Colin you are a star, after deciding to take the plunge I take delivery of my first van next week. I’m so excited, been watching your videos for inspiration for mods and trips away. Love the channel keep up the good work #ecoflow
Love your channel mate, your Yorkshire Leeds enthusiasm has reminded me to be proud to be from Leeds. Keep up the great work.
Excellent video Colin, very helpfull, just about to install solar on my van.
👍
Cracking vid, very informative.
I really need to sort a Solar panel on my van, great idea with the plastic cardboard stuff.
Another great video, the new Ecoflow products are looking good!
Great video, love watching and getting ideas of places to visit in our van.
Great install vid Colin. Keep em coming!
Another great video. Maybe I will be able to work out how my solar works having seen how you put yours in.
Great video as always.Always look forward to Friday so I can see the latest adventure.😁👍👍
Love the quiff. Need the Ecoflow for our T6.1
Great video as usual, trying out Dalesbridge in 3 weeks time after your last visit there. Thanks
as I'm one of your older followers I enjoy your vlogs for their content and humor
Had my van just over a year and have taken on a fair few mods - to be fair, many after I’ve seen you take them on Colin! You’re like my T6 guinea pig giving me confidence to have a dabble! Solar I don’t have and have considered DIY and your last install made me kick the decision down the road. This video confirms to me, I just don’t know enough about electrics. So alas I reckon a paid professional job for me.
But as for a portable generator - possibly with portable solar panels - maybe thats my answer. In which the #ecoflow would be right up my street! Fingers crossed!
What another great blog !! You need to come to Scotland sometime !! Cheers Colin !!
Love the videos col, especially the wild camp ones, been thinking of getting an eco flow for a while for the new year where I plan to wildcamp more often lol, this would sure help me and the cheap Yorkshire pockets 😂, we do love a good freebie lol… all the best
Wow would love one of these, they would make camping trips much more bearable! Love the videos mate. Keep up the great work!
Great vlog as usual 👍 how things with power banks have moved forward I remember your first power bank. love the meet-ups you go on, the last one was tops, also your photo shots nice, take care all the best 🤝
Great video Colin, but i would have gone for the Victron MPPT because of the great Bluetooth App and information it gives. Each to their own I guess, keep up the good work 👍🏼
keep up the good work Colin, I brought the Beaudens after your recommendation and it's served me well 👍
Loving the videos as always. Keep the good work up Colin
Colin love the channel and would love an eco flow to go n the van, keep up the excellent work!
Awesome vids Colin, would love the ecoflow for my old T5.
Great Stuff Colin researching solar at the moment but the the ecoflow would bridge the gap nicely.
Been watching for a while, love the channel and your laugh. Need to see more of Branston.
Keep the videos coming Colin, their fun as well as informative, and being a fellow yorkshireman I can understand you 😉👍
Great work! I love the give it a go DIY attitude you have. I wish I had the confidence 😂
Hi Colin, thank you for entertaining us as usual with your solar panels "NICE"
I also went with 2 x 100w panels due mainly to availability. But I have a plan to possibly in the future to fit a switch to allow one to charge the leisure battery while the second charges a power pack.
Looks easy to setup just waiting for my solar to turn up. Keep up with the good work 👏
Your Videos are my Friday Night guilty pleasure.. my wife rolls her eyes and thinks I'm stalking you for more Van ideas..
Loving the vids Col. Just picked up our VW camper and we’re enjoying it massively. Thanks for all the tips and entertainment!👊🏻 #ecoflow
Always love a demonstration video, I'm more of a visual learner too :)
Great video! well done with solar installation .
Keep on tracking.
This is one of the reasons why i love my Ecoflow.
Keep up the good work Colin, love watching your videos.
great channel I like the van I have a LWB vivaro and thinking about doing this conversion.
New to van lift and you're one of the reasons we bought a van watching your adventures
Been following you for a couple of years as I love how you do your videos, content and places you go - all inspirational. I’ve got a small motorhome but are mulling over whether a campervan would better serve just me and dogs. Keep up your great work Colin 👍 #Ecoflow.
Great bit of kit, I’m hanging out for the River 2 pro which seems to be delayed in its release….all though the Delta mini is on offer at the moment…decisions decisions!
Brilliant videos Colin, really enjoy your content, keep up the good work!!
Another great video Colin. We love watching your days out with the family 👍keep them coming
#EcoFlow
That's a very handy diagram for the wiring... thanks
Nice work. Fingers crossed for the ecoflow 🤞🏻
