Can the EcoFlow Delta 2 Max handle real off-grid life? In this hands-on review, I push this portable power station to its limits, running everything from fridges and tools to welders – and even test solar charging on a cold winter day in Victoria, Australia.

We’ll cover:
✔ What’s in the box and key specs
✔ How it performs in real-world off-grid & home backup scenarios
✔ How long it runs fridges, kettles & tools during a blackout
✔ Solar charging efficiency in winter
✔ Can it run a welder? (You’ll be surprised!)

If you’re looking for portable solar power, off-grid energy solutions, or a home backup battery, this video gives you the answers.

$Is Your Pasture Sick? Try This Simple Brix Test Want to measure pasture quality in real time — not guess it from colour and growth? In this video, Ben Christensen (GreenMate Agriculture) shows how to do BRIX testing properly, and why most people get misleading results. Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdtlC5DtsgZKCM8gislyDJw/join BRIX testing gives you a fast snapshot of plant sap sugars and an extra clue many miss: the definition/fuzziness of the line, which can indicate more complex dissolved solids and feed value. We cover how to sample pasture without bias, how to zone a paddock, how many grabs you actually need, and the simple calibration step that protects your data. This is practical, farmer-to-farmer measurement that helps you track: pasture nutrition changes through the season paddock-to-paddock differences the impact of grazing decisions and fertility programs stress effects (heat, drought, cloud cover, time of day) You’ll see the full process using accessible gear: a cheap refractometer, water for calibration, and a basic garlic press to extract sap — plus the common traps that ruin readings (dew, gateways, troughs, “fertility patches”, and sampling at the wrong time). For more context on why this method matters and how it fits into real farm decision-making, I’ve also written about BRIX testing on my site. Chapters are below so you can jump straight to calibration, paddock zoning, sampling, or reading the line. ✅ Subscribe for weekly practical ag learning and field-tested tools. 📩 Share this with a mate who’s trialling grazing changes or trying to lift pasture performance.
