I have been involved with video since I was young, and then in college I began learning how to edit and not just film. I also started working with a great mentor in Cliff Williams of Argyle Multimedia. Since then, I have worked to expand my skillset to include several different types of cameras, including DSLRs and mirrorless cameras, traditional over-the-shoulder video cameras, Insta360 cameras, GoPros, and even drones (I am Part 107 certified, and also completed my TRUST certification).
But my primary passion will always be photography.
Oh yeah, I love getting out and exploring, so there are some of those videos as well.

Most major companies have a similar complete setup. I prefer the Ecoflow River and Delta 2 power stations with 220W/150W bifacial solar panels. That means I can charge one battery on solar while simply swapping the other battery over to keep the fridge going full time. All the Ecoflow units and fridge have built-in wifi and bluetooth, so I'm able to remotely monitor and control everything off-grid year round in any location.
@@Globetrotter-1 that’s really awesome. Those added features are pretty handy, especially if you go out of town, or in case you need to check in on what’s going on remotely.
I would definitely use for boondocking and camping - keep it easily assessable for power outages at home as well. Sadly that price point of $3500+ is way out of my league and won't be purchased anytime in my life. edit : Although 4300Wh is pretty damn nice - That's still only about 0.83 cents a Kw , which is not competing as i can get 3100Kw for $1100 from Vtoman @ 0.35 cents a Kw.
@@Sulucion6Tone there are so many of these companies out there, I’ve never heard of Vtoman. I also hadn’t heard of Lion Energy until my dad found this one. I definitely wish more of these kinds of units would come down in price. My shed build would benefit a ton from a setup like this, and going camping would be a tad more enjoyable.
Good afternoon! I am making a video to be played at South Charleston High School football games and I was wondering if I could use a clip from this video?
@@Milledge.Austinthank you! I will be sure and give you credit! Do you just want your RU-vid name on there or do you have a business name you’d rather I use
I love getting to do these creative highlights for the different regattas hosted by the Augusta Rowing Club. Already looking forward to the small boat regatta in September and HOTS later in the fall!
You made a good recommendation with re: to testing out the camera. I should have done that first before getting the wiring in place, trying to make a suction cup work that didn't work. After plugging it in (per your suggestion on this great tutorial) before finalizing the set up process, learned my camera doesn't work so will be shipping it back to Rexing for a replacement. Wanted to add something that may be helpful to your viewers. I thought the camera was defective but it ended up being the cable which was replaced and now everything works as intended.
i was watching a few videos on this light and Markuspix has the best review for this light, you called the added reflector a "stupid little metal thing"? the reflector increases the light output without having to turn up the power. ie: you could have the power at 30% and the reflector would produce a 40% ( 1 stop increase ) output.
That is true, it does increase the output, however it focuses it still to the center creating a very concentrated hot spot. It’s been my experience watching others I have worked with and those I follow that they would rather use a softbox/diffuser to break that intensity up. The reflector can be helpful if you’re spotlighting something or going for that concentrated light look, but I rarely use it and I only know 1 person who uses it on a semi-consistent basis.
Best video I have found for the installation and I have looked at well over a dozen. You hit on something I was having a problem with which was I bought the suction cup mount and it would not hold to my windshield at all. Very frustrating. It could be the angle of my windshield and you talked about the different angles of windshields in your video so am going to try the basic adhesive option and am hopeful that will work. Excellent video, thank you
I have now installed Two of the Solar Battery Cams over the last 2 + years, and the problem is the Batteries go bad at 1 to 1.5 years. Since the batteries are not replaceable on most of these type Cameras, they become a throw away item. I won't install any more Battery security cams unless they have a way to replace the battery. There are a few of these available, but I have not bought one yet.
This failure is actually fairly common more than you might realize. To understand why an element sometimes goes out with a mini 4th of July in the kitchen so to speak, it helps to understand how an oven or broiler element is constructed (the exposed coil elements found on budget priced range tops have the same construction) . Inside the element is a coil of nichrome wire, much like what you see in a toaster or hair dryer, embedded in a chalk like powder for insulation to prevent you from getting shocked when you touch it. Next, the outer sheath is formed around it and formed into whatever shape is needed. Sometimes however, when an element has been in service for many years, the insulation inside deteriorates enough to allow the inner nichrome wire to touch the outer sheath, which happens to be grounded to the appliance chassis via the ground prong on the cord, for safety purposes. Since ovens are 240 volt, powered by two hot wires (L1 & L2) and most ovens only switch one of the hots to control the elements, a failed element will not respond to the oven controls and continue burning towards the terminal with the unswitched 120V to ground and the only way to stop the burning is to unplug the range or turn off the breaker, typically a 40 or 50 amp two pole, some wall ovens may only require a 20 to 30 amp circuit. Beginning with the 2023 national electrical code, all 120 and 240 volt circuits in a kitchen must be GFCI protected, and an oven element going nuclear would immediately trip the GFCI, so this will occur less frequently as time goes on, at the expense of significantly adding to the cost of new construction because two pole GFCI breakers cost in $120 to $160 range give or take, per breaker depending on the brand of panel
Brilliant video, horrible Muzak spoiled it for me so I hit mute…not ideal. Plus perhaps if you had mounted the rear camera on the opposite rear window no trailing wire, might be wrong on that one perhaps.
Savannah Rapids Pavillion. There is a launch spot just above the head gates for the canal, you go up through the islands and the current isn’t too bad most days. Then you land at the same spot.
couple of que if you can answer pls 1 when receiving calls , dose it anou ce name or number or just ring tone ? 2 Can you redial last dialed number by pressing twice or any other way , this is super convenient while you driving and just want to call some one whom you called last time without accessing your phone.
This is one of the best product reviews I have seen on RU-vid. In under eleven minutes, I was given A LOT of information about the M9 Bluetooth speaker. I have less than ninety-minutes to buy this unit on sale at Amazon for $22.99. The only thing I am not sure of is how to charge the unit. I saw that you can charge a phone with the USB-A connection, but I may have to watch the video again to see about charging the speaker. I am going to hope for the best and buy it now. I have needed a speaker for more than a year now. I am not too tech-savvy so I have been afraid to buy one for my older Lenovo desktop computer with USB-A connections and hopefully the correct auxiliary connection for pairing. My desktop does have Bluetooth. Thanks for taking the time to make this helpful video.
do you have a link to these? looks sick! trying to get one for my wrx before the next car show. i saw in a previous comment but not sure if the one i saw has the extended stick
Here’s the one with a built-in extended pole - amzn.to/4bnjM0p This is the one I was using here, but I used the Insta360 extended pole. amzn.to/4bkJaUt amzn.to/3WlLTJf
I like these, but I’ve found that they don’t shut off if you hold for 5 seconds, they stay connected to my phone unless I put both buds in the case. Anyone else having this issue?
Oh man, that’s slick. I’m not really sure for that part. The new security camera I just was sent came with a “calling card” where it has like 7 days worth of data for me to test it. Once I do that setup, maybe I’ll have an idea for how the Viziuuy works
Thanks for this vid. Found similar product for the new X4. Even though X4 got lens guards included, I wonder if you can put these on top for extra extra protection lol These lens guards clip ons are glass right? How has it held up? Thanks
Honestly, the X4 has the perfect answer to this problem. With those screw-on lens guards (including the premium any-scratch version), attachments like these become pointless.
Just got mine, no documentation. I have no idea how to turn it on even. It's charging, and that's the only thing that shows. I appreciate your informative review. Thank you
Thank you so much! I Love learning more about this camera. The second gen XG-1 as my first 35mm camera. I eventually got the 1st and 3rd gen to complete the set. Definitely a tank for first time camera buyers.
insta360 x3 ....when you have schrach camera is useless so they made cheap no safire is there they dont support you have garantie but you have to pay shipping cost and repair end it up 150 dollars everytime and you have to send to hongkong you thing i can care those lenses no you cant thats a action camera or you use in your home dont buy it or you pay it everytime
I have mine positioned so it’s protected from direct rain (the solar panel is fine in the elements). If the rain is hard enough and clouds make it dark enough, the camera goes into night mode and it’s still fine, you can make it color with the lights. The rain has never tripped it, if that’s what you mean, though.
