Sloth Overland presents a review of the ikich portable ice maker. It's a great little ice maker and I put it through its paces in this video. Oddly, the first round destroyed the 1600W DC-AC invertor even though the max load of the ice maker is only 250W – the invertor wasn't overloaded – just old. If you want to see how to power the ice maker for extended periods of time, check out my Overlanding Solar Charging and Second Battery System: Rumble (makes me money for every view): https://rumble.com/vrq76i-overlanding-solar-charging-and-second-battery-system.html YouTube (helps grow my followers): https://youtu.be/RGPbuRVUI6U

Five minute flashback film of an obstacle in the Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument. It's not just about going over an obstacle - sometimes the obstacle is put in your path and you have to move it. In this flashback film, Sloth Overland recalls a trip where the road changed after we used it, and had to work our way back over the obstacles.

Sloth Overland presents a five minute flash film to answer the question: “How much load can I put on my roof?” Manufacturers put a load limit in the Owner's Manual that seems pretty low, but what does that really mean? This video explores some of the forces the roof rack undergoes.

This video provides an easy fix for the check engine light. No need to disassemble the instrument cluster or buy an expensive OBDII reader.

Sloth Overland Five-minute Flash Film Rebeading a Tire Using Gravity This video shows how to rebead a tire on the trail using the materials at hand. It is based on another YouTube video which showed me how to do this. It works by using the soapy liquid to seal and lubricate the bead while gravity pulls the tire down towards the bead. 01/30/2022: Update: This is the video I mentioned that I couldn't find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgCGqBhb8lo Note: This was performed at 60F in the sun. When the tire lost the bead, it was sub-freezing, and it is my belief the tire would have been much less malleable and this technique probably would not work. Note: Remove the valve core for improved air flow. The video I watched but could find in my history said to do that as well as Richard Parks (A10 Warthog). WARNING: Keep your fingers away from the bead while inflating - when the air pops the tire into place, it does so quickly and with no warning. Serious injury to your fingers may result.

Sloth Overland presents a five minute primer on how a dual battery and mobile solar power system works. Five minutes for the short attention span theater.

Several people have asked me about my rooftop tent bedding, so I made this short video to illustrate how we make our bed. Link to blanket: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006A1PGDE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
