[Music] I never stop do I never stop we’ve got a nice little connector we’ve got three um plugs there we got a couple of USBS so we’ll put our tester in and look at that we’ve now got another power points well another three power points so as you can see this wire down here um wasn’t do power we getting to but we’ve got um 240 here we put one of them on and then just connected it in so it worked out easier than we thought actually we’ve swapped controllers over that was the old controller that’s the new controller so we we’ve got a Bluetooth now so we can see the sun’s doing something it’s charging up to the battery so if we go to active monitor there’s the van there’s the uh the battery cuz there’s only one and 14.6 to on the battery 1456 which you will lose a little bit so the solar controller is obviously doing what it’s doing let me show you show you something quite clever so here’s our gas Locker show you there’s the gas bottle there so rather than having to Lumber in in and out with it and everything I just pull that oops look at that and I can get both gas bottles nice and easy and then when I finish you what I’ve got to do slide it back in what a great idea that is and this has been put on the deathless mag magic amazing eh two weeks in this one in Italy and I come back to this look at it it’s all great right so here’s my next one we’ve got a customer Bank coming and it says the fridge is not getting cold on the on the gas back up the fridge so what we’ve got the gas goes in that’s the gas valve that opens the gas up on the fridge the gas comes along there goes into there and there’s the berie one we get off what was happening is when i i l it the flame was really low so what I did do is I took this pipe up and I got the airline on this pipe that’s what came out now that is the the jet that the gas goes through you going to see how small the O is in there so I cleaned all this up cleaned all that up put that back on and then lit it again and I’m getting a really good flame now so it was just basically through years and years of De and everything else we put up 1 Kow of water one bar and it tripped so now what we’ve done we put the new controller on so next step we need to get rid of the hot water that was already in before this fans had more water to go through it in 3 or 4 days than NRA Falls you know come on then tell everyone where you been Italy sento okay I have ordered a nice clean new Burning unit which I’m going to put onto there and then I’m also I’ve ordered one of these so I might as well replace that the same time and then the customer is nicely happy so why you changing it fixed it because look how old it is look how rust it all is the thing is I’ve got the fridge out okay yeah I’ve cleared it all off it’s all working well but what’s the point when I can put something nice and new on now I think the 2013 so he’s been on here for 11 years it’s done its job and I might as well just put a new one on 30 seconds to tell us all about sento and interesting facts go the Italians are crazy drivers I tell you mate i’ never drive a car in Italy even crossing the road he like a he dies my death mate tell us about your lemons lemons like that honestly seriously bloody lemons out size cuz they make lemon cello it’s famous for lemons around in B coast okay yeah anything else uh what did you go see uh I went to uh pompe yeah yep tell you what the road’s there right 2,000 years old they’ve just dug them up they’re better than Ros so there’s your guide to sento was it other problem we had so remember the solar there’s the new solar controller in there screwed that back in did test it yesterday so it’s l final test today and this one go back to the customer and now we need to move on to something else food what was your favorite food oh food everything bate I tell you what I had in the rest in the hotel one night liing onions we should have gone to Capri but the sea was a bit too choppy Gracie Fields Gracie Fields she was a singer from brale right don’t tell us anymore Gracie Fields let us know in the comments what song she did I’ve never heard of it obviously Kev has heard of it she what she lived there she lived there but she was from Rockdale I see be it would have been a gr Fields would [Music] Shey God oh looks like the latest news is just arrived let’s see what we’ve got introducing the new him ARA car the latest in compact camper van Innovations oo can’t wait for this one lightweight and easy to park it’s perfect for spontaneous getaways off we go inside you’ll find an adjustable din lounge and long rear bedroom that lifts up to reveal clothing storage additionally rear storage space a good siiz kitchen with a two burner Hub and a compact bathroom with a shower and a foldable foldable sink the open shelving adds a nice modern touch too that’s if you’re into that how about this I’ve got for you here we go just imagine Cru one of the rarest motor homs ever made the 1928 Pierce Arrow house car now it was built just before the Wall Street Crash and this luxurious vehicle features comfortable seating a bathroom dining area and a rear porch all inspired by Pullman rail cars with only three three in existence it remains a unique blend of Elegance and functionality from a byon area I bet that’s nice and there’s the news for you for this week checking the joints where we put the fridge back into the motor room there’s the gas pipe we’re just making sure we’ve got our leaks if we had some leaks this would go like that oh that’s getting nice and cold now so we know that’s all good final check today and that can come go back to the customer now they get in a nice cold fridge have you seen one of these before the fridge freezer yeah waiting for that so you’ve got your electric gas battery automatic there’s your temperature what’s up for go on you You’ tell me so you don’t know no no it says it anti condensation that’s what does that mean it means it stops condensation so I need to read up on the antic condensation cuz I had one of them in before yeah I think what it possibly does is it’s a posh name for when for a fan at the back of it yeah basically that’s what I think it is on a lot of the fridges if you take your vents off at the back there’s a little condensate cup and you got a plastic tube comes off and there’s a little cup that’s clipped to the uh to the pipes on the back of the fridge and technically the condensation goes out of your fridge down your little Channel through a little ho that sometimes gets blocked down a little plastic tube into that cup cuz that Cup’s clipped onto the pipe work which gets warm it then evaporates it okay thank you it didn’t do it very well on one of my Vans so I had to put the tube through so side right I’m really really really really excited to do this feature cuz that all R we em yeah that why acted excited W it’s bed makeup Time 1 to 45 any number you want 17 17 are we going oh wait
