Welcome to our Channel. The name Pixx Adventures originates from our business Pixx Media (www.pixxmedia.co.uk), where we do photography, videography and aerial imagery
This channel originally started out at the end of lockdown for all things, photography, and wild camping, before life took over once again and we all started to get busy.
However, we have recently bought not one but two camper vans and we have decided to share our travels and experiences.
We will soon be sharing video's of the vans themselves and our travels too and letting you into why we bought two vans.
So look out for those videos starting in the last quarter of 2023 and into 2024.

มุมมอง 2.1K8 หลายเดือนก่อน
We are Paul & Gill and this is our first video together and we hope to bring you many more as we explore in our two campervans. This is our trip through Scotland on the Snowroads through the Cairngorms earlier this year in April. Not much snow to see on this occasion but we hope to revisit during the winter months. However, we had an absolutely fantastic trip and saw some beautiful locations. V...
SOLO WILD CAMPING in the Lake District!
มุมมอง 1.1K3 ปีที่แล้ว
With inspiration from other TH-camrs such as Paul Messner, MCM Outdoors, The Solo Summiteer, Adventure 55 and Haze Outdoors to name but a few this is a solo mountain wild camp on St Sunday Crag in the beautiful Lake District, Cumbria, England. Starting from Patterdale a small village and civil parish in the eastern part of the English Lake District in the Eden District of Cumbria. St Sunday Cra...
Hi there.. I bought one of these and fitted it two week's ago seemed to work well eveytime I started the car it charged my Delta pro at 800 watt all good.. until this weekend went away drove for an hour and a half it charged my Delta pro from 32% to 100% great but started the car this morning and its not working and on the app I see... Car battery port under voltage (32) cant find any answer....🤔
@@chambpain I sometimes set my voltage to charge when driving to 12v and then when I stop or it’s charged to stop it from draining the van battery set it to 14v OR set to 13v and it will only charge when over 13v and when it falls below as it will when at rest then it doesn’t drain your van battery. I am going to do another video in this very subject.
Could you show a better photo or description of the cable connections to the battery? I disconected the negative and positive cables of the battery, and when connected them again, I could not start my promaster 2023 van. The immobilizer fail light came on, and I could not reset it. I had to tow the car to the dealership. I am afraid it may happen again since I were not able to connect the aecoflow alternator charger. My mistake is i couldn't see well on the video where you connected the positive and negative cables of the ecoflow alternator charger. I thought they were supposed to be connected to the positive and negative terminals of the battery. Am I wrong? Was I supposed to disconect the battery in order to connect the positive and negative cables of the ecoflow charger to the same terminals of the battery? Sorry for my ignorance. Thanks.
@@alvaroplanchart sounds like you have done everything correctly. You just connect the positive and negative cables to the same on the battery. I didn’t disconnect my battery, when doing so.
Great honest film showing the beauty of our country. Can’t beat the feeling of peace when you are somewhere like this and makes you realise how insignificant we are ! A lot of work gone into making this , well done 👍
@@Stescaff thank you so much for your comment. We are truly blessed and this trip will always be a favourite. Thanks again.
Great video and music to match ! We are hoping to get up there soon and thinking of the best time to go to avoid the dreaded midges ? Looking forward to your next one. 👍
Thank you :) best time is early spring and September onwards for midges. Would love to do this route in the midst of winter though.
Well done! And very good idea to get faster charging! What do you think about connecting ecoflow alternator charger to the positive of service battery (instead of to van's engine battery)? (Sorry for my english...)
@@PierFrancescoSerena-xi5cg thank you. You can connect to either the van battery or the leisure battery. The reason I didn’t was because the leisure batteries are charger by solar and the van alternator. The EcoFlow alternator charger also has the ability to reverse charge from the Delta power station so if the van battery is flat for any reason, I can still start the van from the Delta unit. I hope that this makes sense. Thanks again.
I just saw you in Bath keep up the great work
Thanks! Will do!
Thanks for posting this Paul. I have gen 2 on top of my narrowboat - when I change to gen 3, will I need to align the starlink dish every time I move or does it work regardless of the direction you are pointing (given that I will have clear view of sky and no tree canopy) TIA
Hi, no need to realign. Ours keeps its signal very well and on the move.
@@pixx.adventures thank you 🙏 my builder is making me a lazy Susan mount for the dish but it will be great if we don’t have to align it every time we move.
Really need to look at the draw on the alternator and van electrics huge potential of burning out the van alternator and flattenning the start batterry will be interested tonsee how you get on
No excess draw on the Alternator. Our van is fitted with a Smart Alternator so works out where to put the power for each of the batteries.
What vehicle is this? It looks really nice. Might have to get one myself! :)
@@cavejohnson2075 Adria Twin Sports 640 SGX
Thanks for posting the video. I'm thinking of getting one for my motorhome and wondered if you can wire it up to the leisure battery rather than the starter battery. I'd prefer to do this purely because access would be much easier.
@@pghoward yes you can. You have the choice between the van battery or leisure battery. I chose van as the leisure more or less take care of themselves and would have more use if I needed to reverse charge to the van battery should it drain for any reason. Hope that helps.
@@pixx.adventures Many thanks, that's great news as my Ecoflow is right next to the leisure battery under a bench seat so installing the charger next to them both should be simple. The only problem will be what to do with all the excess cable which won't be needed. I'm guessing coiling it up won't be ideal given the danger of overheating. Looking forward to Friday when it's due to arrive. 👍
where did 5M of cable go? Is it looped in the foot well? Thanks.
@@wevegonetouring I left some out for ease of moving the Delta 2 and the remainder runs under the step and below the floor.
Thank you for the video!
My pleasure!
Great video. What happens about draw on the alternator when the Battery to Battery charger is running at the same time? I’m looking to get one of these.
Thank you. From what I have deduced and don't quote me on this as I need to confirm it, but our vehicle alternator is a smart alternator. When testing, the vehicle battery and leisure batteries seem to take priority and the power to the EcoFlow is reduced until which time they are fully charged. Once they are at full capacity the EcoFlow then goes to max power charging. As I said, I am still testing it and haven't had the chance to test it fully as yet as the van as been in the garage, being serviced etc. May need to also clarify this with EcoFlow directly. Hope that helps.
Just to add, I have emailed EcoFlow for confirmation.
@@pixx.adventures I think that would be the case. Ours is a smart alternator too. I also have the Delta 2 with a couple of flexible Ecoflow panels and when off grid I have the van plugged into the delta 2. Not overly efficient but it charges the van nicely without us having a drain on the leisure battery which is then fine for dull days. Need to find a way to go more direct to the leisure battery. Will also buy the spare Ecoflow battery too.
@@pixx.adventures great. I think it’s worth knowing. If you do this mod though you just need to accept the alternator will have a shorter life.
Great video Paul
@@vanlovefest thank you. You know you need one 😉
Beautiful video! Subscribed from Italy!
Grazie mille...... very kind words
@@pixx.adventures thank you!!
Great video Paul, if only the system ran on 12v out the box. Love the magnetic solution
Thank you. Triomount do have a 12v option on their website, but I chose not to have it as using the EcoFlow is great for us, also having the EcoFlow alternator charger. I will show you the set up when I see you at VanLove Fest.
The Starlink Mini runs off 12v, manufacturers are already making USB-C to bayonet cables, and it's all in one, router is built-in into the antenna.
Nice magnetic mounts, would you trust them at motorway speeds?
The magnets are pretty strong and the unit didn’t move at all but I guess it depends on where you mount it. Ours tucks in nicely behind the skylight and pop top so probably has less wind impact. Reviews are positive on their website with regard to speeds and tests but think I will look to secure somehow as a precaution.
@@pixx.adventuresdo the magnets line up with the same ‘ridges’ on the roof of the van? Looks like from the video at end, and it looks flat, so I assume so, but would like to make sure.
@@iangarethreeves no, I have offset it to match the ridges, but doesn't affect the performance in anyway.
Just seen your van at North Berwick. Have a great trip. Scotland is gorgeous!
Ah thank you. We had a great trip - back home now unfortunately.
Great film to watch over a sausage curry. Thank you. Lovely to meet you both today.
