This video is sponsored by Bluetti. Power Your Journey with BLUETTI Elite 300: https://bit.ly/3R9pGNW and get yourself a 5% discount with the exclusive code: BLUETTIPeter
A usual, I've left the sponsor read in this otherwise ad-free member video in case it’s of interest to members; it's in its own chapter so it's easy to skip if it's not for you.
