12v Kettle for your Car | Boil Water on the road | Car Camping Travel Essential
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
A 12v Kettle, when car camping (or vanlife), is SUCH a blessing. I can safely boil water while I drive to make coffee, ramen, and tons of other convenient means of sustenance. Does it take time to get to a high temp? Sure, but I have the time and I'm VERY happy to no longer have to use expensive gas (propane/butane) to heat my water like a pioneer. This is the best travel kettle, or portable kettle, I've found. The only downside might be that the capacity is not so big at about 12oz. I'd prefer if it were 16oz, but it's enough for what I've been using it for.

Very helpful, Jordan. Thanks for the info! ☕️👏🏻💕🎉
I have a very similar product and it's worked well, but it's definitely a bit of a wait. Good idea to get it started when you wake up or before you prepare breakfast.

You’re right. If the wait is built into your routine, it’s no bother.
It’s great to see you feeling back to your normal comedic self! I’ve seen stories on Twitter from others that got sick on the Playa. It was really hot and dusty during the day so that many were inside tents in close contact.

Jordan, you always have the best products at competitively decent prices. I have that same three way 12 volt power splitter and I love that I can power off any port that’s not used so that it can’t be shorted out by a foreign conductive item.
Wow very nice! Great way to have hot beverages or Ramen! ❤️

Well I made it till you said 30 minutes. I'm kinda glad I opted for the 120v Portable kettle. Which still takes 5 minutes But thats not too bad

Agreed that it is not ideal to wait that long, but when you incorporate it into your routine, you just do something else while it’s going.
You can make ramen from cold water. You just have to wait long enough. Which means you simply have to heat the water up enough to your preference and figure out how long the soak needs to be. Even a heated mug would work.
Like this idea. Wonder how much "juice" it takes to maintain or is it safe enough for use when parked and motor off or only "on the move" ? 12 oz. better than no coffee on the road. I've been lookin' for this idea.

I'd definitely keep it running if it's a prius. If it's a secondary battery system, just be aware that it is a high power draw and could short your DC port if it's not up to the task

Hello, great video. I have some questions if you wouldn't mind answering. Does it leak if you turn it upside down? If you heat the water and unplug it. Would the water keep warm like a thermos flask? Lastly what wattage is it?
@LiveEasy

Yes, it will leak if upside down. It has insulation, but probably not nearly as good as something like a thermos™️. Not sure of the wattage, but it might be on the Amazon product page

Hi handsome Max. What seat padding do you have? You humor is needed. Do you take hot water towel wipes?

This is the seat cover I use. amzn.to/3oeomex I do not do hot towel wipes but it's not a bad idea!
What I missed in this video is the watts or amps it draws. Also I wanted to be a witness to opening the thing when it just boiled it to 100dregrees celcius. The duration it takes to get water up to coffee drinking temp is unacceptable to me. I have to search for more heavy power drawing 12 volt boilers. I like the one cup idea because that on itself should save a lot of time

I never sleep in the seat. Wouldn’t recommend. I sleep in the back. Enough room to stretch out back there if you create a flat surface up to the back of the front seart.
