AllOffroad 4x4 | Fraser Island 2020 BY 4X4 | Part 3 | THE STORM & PARADISE | Why I got rid of my Foxwing awning @AlloffroadAu | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
In Part 3 of our epic Fraser Island 4wd Adventure I encounter the first Police stop and a breathalyser test, we have a chat with the rangers about the Dingo attack on Scott. We endure a pretty good thunderstorm which leaves me wet on an empty air mattress and probably was one of my worst nights. We then make our way towards the Fraser West Coast again planing for Awinya via Lake Allom and the Freshwater turtles who inhabit the lake. As the tides where not in our favour, we diverted to Worali Creek which was new to me and is now my new most favourite camping spot on the West Coast. I explain why I don't like my Foxwing Awning and what I will replace it with. We also explorer Bowarrady Creek and then make our way towards Kingfisher Bay Resort but need to make some detours due to fallen trees and road closures.

Please note I, unfortunately, have to disable comments on these videos for legal reasons.
Today, I bring you an update on the defamation proceedings issued against me by Deep Cycle Systems Pty Ltd (DCS).
First, I want to sincerely thank everyone for your tremendous support. I’ve been overwhelmed by the many, many messages I have received.
This legal action has clearly touched a nerve with a lot of people who worry about the impact it may have on online content creators’ ability to continue to deliver unbiased and factual product reviews.
I think people are just realising that this is a momentous case with a lot at stake for viewers of shows like mine who really depend on honest opinions based on detailed testing.
One of the main messages I keep getting is thanks from people who value the critical safety advice I was able to deliver about the reliability of batteries.
Everyone who goes off-road understands how critical that is and why it is in the public interest to continue to be able to deliver and receive it.
The reason for the update today is to be clear that I am, unfortunately, still being sued by DCS in defamation in the District Court of Queensland, Proceeding Number 1169 of 24.
The reason I have to say that is because it has come to my attention that there was some material uploaded by DCS onto its Facebook Page recently and also on the Google Reviews Page.
There was an exchange of comments on that Facebook Page as follows:
Bradley Davis: Pretty disappointing to see a company that I use, pursuing legal action after a review was made on YouTube. The review didn’t concern me as a customer, but the legal action against the little guy begins to make me question if I would buy from you again.
DCS responded: Bradley Davis we are not taking any legal against anyone for any product reviews. You probably should do some more research as it would not make any sense for a small Aussie family business to be wasting valuable resources doing something like that. Please feel free to call us tomorrow if you wish to discuss your concerns.
That is a blatant lie.
I was very concerned by this comment because it also tries to represent that I am crowd-funding for a non-existent legal action. That is simply not the case. Here is a copy of the statement of claim served on me by DCS. Here is a copy of the Defence that I had to file in response, prepared by lawyers. Here is a copy of the 20-page Reply I received in the last day or so. You can see DCS is the Plaintiff.
When I found out this lie from DCS I went to my lawyers and asked them to write to DCS lawyers. We asked for an apology and that DCS take the Post down.
DCS did not provide an apology and then amended their statement to this:
Bradley Davis we are not taking any legal against anyone for any product reviews that we believe are genuine. You probably should do some more research as it would not make any sense for a small Aussie family business to be wasting valuable resources doing something like that. Please feel free to call us tomorrow if you wish to discuss your concerns.
In the meantime, I have noticed that on product review website for DCS there is a highlighted statement at the top of the page. It says: [SHOW SCREENSHOT]
“We have detected a number of positive reviews for this listing which we suspect have been falsely generated and have the potential to mislead customers.
ProductReview.com.au takes a zero tolerance approach to any fake reviews and have removed these reviews accordingly.”
To be clear, my reviews were obviously genuine and now I face this legal proceeding brought by DCS against me. I do not know why they, as a “small Aussie family business” would be “wasting valuable resources doing something like that”. But they are doing so. Their lawyers continue to make demands of me, including asking me to take down my GoFundMe videos. This all causes more legal costs.
We have a court hearing date on 30 July about some administrative matters for the case. I will keep people updated as we go along.
Here is a link to my GoFundMe page. I repeat that if there is money raised above my legal costs, then I will donate the surplus to the Royal Flying Doctors Service.
Thank you again for all your support. My commitment to you is to continue delivering unbiased, honest feedback based on factual information.")

On our way home, we get sidetracked and a quick overnight stay turns into 3 nights at the beautiful Alroy Station in QLD. Yabby Catching, Opal Mining, hot artesian bath beautiful campfires next to a Billabong Alroy Station is well worth a visit and the kids and I had a ball.")

My First Solo Trip in a while. After dropping off my kids at Bourk Airport, I decided to evade the Sydney lockdown for a little longer and spend two weeks travelling the Darling River Run. An area I often travelled through but have not taken too much time to explore. In this episode, I show some older footage from Mount Grenfell Historic Site. I then switch to my current trip exploring Toorale Station, walking in the Gundabooka NP and enjoying some remote Darling River Bush Camps and visiting Meeninde lakes with water.")

Welcome back to another video! A friend of mine recently purchased a what was supposed to be 150w Outbax Maxray Solar blanket. On our last camping trip, he showed it, and it looked to be awfully small for a 150w blanket, given that I have a Redarc 150w blanket in my vehicle which is nearly double the size. While we did not have much sun on that trip we went out two weeks ago to test what the difference in output for the supposedly 150w Solar blankets was. We noticed, that after Mark contacted Outbax, the rating of the blanket was reduced to 120w on their web site. Is this product too good to be true? Lets discuss that!
