Gazelle Tent Hacks. Includes how to rig a tarp off of tent.
มุมมอง 17K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I really like my Gazelle T4 model. But like anything, there are ways to make it a little better or a little easier to use. I especially wanted to be able to rig a tarp out over the door. Captions should be available for those unable to withstand the Cicada noise!
KIA Telluride Design Flaw. The "fatal funnel" and an easy fix
มุมมอง 54K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I absolutely love my 2021 Kia Telluride EX with premium package. No doubt, it is the nicest vehicle I have ever owned. But there is a design flaw that would allow damage. The good news? There is an easy fix. I received great customer service from this gentleman. He even sent a personal email to ensure and clarify my order. voltshelf.weebly.com/kia-telluride.html
My new pop-up camper!
มุมมอง 1.2K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Life changes so I have adapted my concept of camping. Out with the Rockwood HW276 pop up and I down sized to this beauty. For me at least, this has been a wonderful switch. The Gazelle tent has made my camping so much easier. It no longer feels like a hassle, load up and take off for a few days.
Cold weather tent camping
มุมมอง 1613 ปีที่แล้ว
This last winter I decided to try out some cold weather tent camping. I used a Moko 4 season tent. This video is a combination of 2 trips to the same sight. The first try was a pleasant 70 degrees during the day and down to just 40 at night. The second trip was much colder! I hate being cold. I wasn't sure why I was doing this at the time. But since this video was done (November 2020) I have co...

I have camped in the MoKo 4 season 3 person tent twice in this video. , I show you the problems with setting it up solo, but it can be done. Since recording this video I have camped a third time and the set up went even quicker. Once the outer shell rainfly is set up everything else is easy.

Wellax sleeping pad review
มุมมอง 9K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I purchased the WELLAX UtraThick FlexFoam Sleeping pad. This bad boy fills out to be 3 inches thick. In this video, I have used it for tent camping in cold weather. It did not disappoint! Probably to heavy and cumbersome for a hiking sleep pad. I am a side sleeper and the Wellax pad was the answer for a good night's sleep.

Huel Versus Ka'chava- Which is better?

I tried both the Huel and Ka'chava meal replacement drink powders. I definitely lean more towards one than the other. These are meant to be a meal replacement drink and not just a protein powder. They are expensive! Are they worth the money? I tried the Huel Black version and the Ka'chava; both in chocolate flavor.

Pop up-tent camper lift system lubrication
มุมมอง 36K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Our camper lift system was making a loud popping noise so I realized it was time to lubricate it. This is a Goshen 2660 system used on most Forest River campers since 1994. Ideally, the camper should be leveled prior to lifting the roof. The lubrication seemed to help as the popping noise has resolved.

    I went camping with my girlfriend here in Arkansas near a dam and at first I thought that noise was the dam, but realized later it was the cicadas!😂 I always rig a tarp at the entrance of my tents and I just ordered the Gazelle from Amazon, so I have been watching videos on this tent when yours popped up. The algorithms are amazing!😂 Thanks for sharing!😊

    Good instruction video. Very fussy to set up. We have a hybrid. Way easier. You just have to drop down the bed ends and put the bars in. The rest is like a regular camper.

    As long as your storage tank is above the Rhino tank and the volume is enough to fill the line, your waste WILL flow. Minimal hose manipulation to empty the line. Same physics as siphoning gas or any other liquid.

    Stabilizer jacks should have been done first before anything else. You have to have everything supported first so the frame is not distorted. Makes everything easier to do while setting up.

    Just fill the tank all the way up with fresh water before you empty it the force will let it flow into the tote … you may not get 100% empty but it’ll definately buy you some space

    DON'T BUY. These are HORRIBLE for any real distance driving. I bought these for my 2021 Kia Telluride for a road trip between Tampa, FL to Seattle. I've made the trip in the same car previously without these, and nothing bad happened. So I tried these as a just-in-case. All of these bent from dragonfly and random bug strikes, and all of them wither bent inwards creating an opening, or peeled out of their rubber edge rings, creating seriously dangerous-to-grab situations. One mesh was even hanging of the front bumper - even though all of them were zip-tied. I had to cut the zip ties and throw them all in the trash by the time I hit the mid-west. COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY.

    • @SteveVoltShop
      @SteveVoltShop 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm not quite sure what happened here, if you would send some pictures to me, i would love to analyze them and see what is going on and what can be done. I have not heard of this issue at all previously. Some of the stated concerns sound possibly like installation issues. These are metal mesh screens, bugs and dragon flies should not bend or damage them. A rock might dent one, but that is a badge of honor, letting you know your radiator was spared. HTH!

    • @SteveVoltShop
      @SteveVoltShop 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don't think manufacturers purposely design grills to let rocks and debris in and help increase parts sales, but I also think they know what it takes to protect a radiator. The seem to be choosing high design over protection, busted radiators and condensers are just the collateral damage. And it isn't their problem because it isn't a warranty issue. So they seem to not be concerned with spending your money for you after the sale....

    Happened to me too. 2023 KIA Sorento EX Hybrid. One little random rock dented the coolant coils and leaked inverter fluid everywhere. Replacement part and labor cost $1100. Debating whether to have a custom auto body install a home depot type screen $450 (bumper has to be removed) or buy the internal set from Volt Shelf. Looking for any videos on how hard or easy it would be to install these. I think it can happen to any car but something about new KIAs and the size of the opening. KIA mechanic said he's repaired 3 in the last few months.

  • @David-nn9mr

    Is one of your reasons for adding the awning the fact that the factory rainfly does not entirely cover the doors? So if you open the doors in the rain, rainfly run-off will flow inside the tent(without your awning)?

    It is much easier to put the bar in above the bed if you do it before you do the zippers on the side wall. It took me a couple of times setting up the camper before I realized that. Good video for first time set up. I have the HW 277 and love it.

    I have a love/hate relationship with Gazelle tents. I've had one T3, and two T4 Overland Editions. The T3 door zippers failed (2020) - all 4 of them. I needed a replacement ASAP, as I was "transitioning" to life as a nomad. It was under warranty, and would be replaced as such. Trouble was, the T3 was on backorder, so I decided to upgrade to the T4 OE for what seemed like a very reasonable price. Back on the road - the T4's zippers fail. Back to the city to wait for another replacement under warranty. I'm using that one now, and the zippers have ALL failed. I've gotten pretty good (so far) at "fixing them", which entails squeezing the back-end of the pull where it's supposed to interlock the teeth together. Also, a carpenter's pencil is handy to rake along the teeth to help smooth the action a bit. I think there's a design flaw in pairing the hub style walls with a zipper that is struggling to deal with the tension created. Also, quality control was asleep at the wheel on my current tent. - most notably during the seam taping process, and the sewing of the panels. Of course, not everyone uses (or depends on) their tent as much as I do. Camping tents are not designed for heavy use, or they'd cost way more. I think I need a van. 😆 Oh, about knots - I like the app Knots 3D. It has user controlled speed of an animation of the knot being tied. Very handy!
