Default Video: JK wrangler snorkel -AEV vs chinese ebay knockoff side by side

Hello everybody,

Just wanted to share this video that I found in regards to the Chinese Knockoff AEV Snorkle.

Like the saying goes. "You get what you pay for"

gee, who woud have guessed that something that costs 3x as much is nicer lol. at the same time, aev is always crazy overpriced for the crap the sell.

and the ironic part is his complaining at the end yet he or someone else sent their money to china lol. funny video but pointless comparison since they aren't even installed.

My question,so you got your AEV or cheap knock off snorkel and hit that big water hole. What about your electrical system? Will it survive.

It depends how deep the hole. I've gone through 4ft deep holes at a steady pace with no problems. My snorkel is installed just to cover my ass. I don't plan on going that deep on purpose, but if I get stuck and it sinks a bit I won't be too freaked out. As long as you keep moving it'll mean less time for muck to creep into those tiny places.
