Episode 110 - As we continue our Wild Atlantic Way road trip in Ireland, the Dingle Peninsula blows our minds with its beauty and rugged coastal views. Unfortunately, however, as we try make our way along the coast, our motorhome encounters even more problems! #wildatlanticway #vanlifeireland

Join us for another week of adventure on the Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland as we explore the Dingle Peninsula, touring the coastline with Dingle Sea Safari, when we spot a pod of dolphins and a group of seals, before touring the famous (and quite nerve-wracking) Slea Head Drive. We then continue further south, exploring the ancient sights around the Wild Atlantic Way, before our motorhome starts to encounter some problems, leaving us stranded..

This was one of our favourite part to the Wild Atlantic Way so far and we are so excited that we FINALLY got to see dolphins up close (we could have touched them!). It is just a shame that Ellie is feeling ill once again and it has left us in a predicament of what to do to repair her.. Any suggestions? 😅

There’s a seal colony in the bay in front of our house. You can hear them at night. Usually the young ones. They call each other and their mother when it’s dark. People find it creepy but I like it because it’s a sound I associate with summer. Not that we had a summer this year in Ireland. Until this week which is lovely.

Rain in Ireland, who would have thought that😂 it’s not called the Emerald Isle for nothing. I love the Dingle area, my wife’s mum was from Tralee so I’ve been lucky to spend quite a bit of time over there, and we’re planning on doing a slow tour of the west in our caravan soon.

Your video of herm was gorgeous, I'm now going to binge the rest of your travels! Love your channel and you two seem absolutely wonderful. Thank you for sharing your journeys 🙏🏻❤

That would definitely be a good solution as then Gemma can also use her haridryer haha! It is just the price that puts us off at the moment 🙈

If I had seen your video sooner I could have sent you a new circuit breaker, I live on the east coast of Ireland and have a small workshop specialising in auto electrics, including split charge battery systems. Heading to Donegal this weekend for a bit of sightseeing on the motorbike if the weather is favourable. Love your video updates, safe travels,

Another great video, so many stunning views and interesting roads. Looks a lovely area to visit. Those breakers can be a nightmare! Might be better with a fuse and isolator - that’s what I changed to after having issues and no more problems + carry a spare fuse just to be prepared, and as you will know if you’re prepared you don’t need it 😀 All the best, David & Rachel ❤

Love the improvised board game Campbell and the curry looked good too. The Dingle Peninsula looks beautiful, but not so sure about those narrow roads with sheer drops as I'm not good with heights and would be so stressed out!

As an emergency repair bypass the breaker by putting both wires into one end. As long as there isn't a short in your wiring, which be apparent immediately, it will keep you going for a day or two.

@djsmiley01
@djsmiley01 10 месяцев назад
Those automatic breakers are just crap. Replace them with a proper MIDI fuse and you're good. Also, the fuse should be close to the starter battery, not in the back. Fusing should be near the source of the power, for the wire from the starter battery to the B2B that means near the starter battery compartiment.
@highlands2hammocks
@highlands2hammocks 10 месяцев назад
We also have a fuse on the other side of the b2b as well to protect both ends ☺️ will look into that other fuse though that’s a great shout! Thanks!
@paddyman9603
@paddyman9603 9 месяцев назад
djsmiley01 It MUST be fused at both ends as a damaged cable will draw power from either battery potentially causing a fire

Those fuses are rubbish and dangerous and should be fused both ends
@highlands2hammocks
@highlands2hammocks 10 месяцев назад
It is fused in both ends, before and after the b2b ☺️ they’re not dangerous as such as they do their job and prevent overheating of the cable, they just don’t last very long sadly
