Customer Reviews for Diesel Fuel Heater 12V 5KW For RV Trucks With LCD Switch & 1 Air Outlet

This heater does a nice job of heating up my camper van on cold mornings. Just a simple touch of the button gets it started and 10 mins later it is warm inside.The manual is a bit lacking with settings and such.My friend also got one for her cargo trailer and its been working good. Well worth the price.Seller easy to work with. I had an issue with mine and it was replaced with no problems.

There are in my opinion a lot of unwarranted negative reviews on this item. I live full-time in my camper van and this thing works exceptionally well to heat with clean dry air. Soo incredibly worth it. I spend about 10-15$ a week on diesel for 24 hr of heat. (I work on my computer work).

It works very good no issues at all I know They're not built for everyday use But I use mine in the shop for almost one month everyday no issue at all .

I've only been running it for about 4-5 hours inside with the exhaust temporarily going out the wood stove flue just to test it out and I did run it @ several different settings out side for about 2 hours as well just to burn off any new smells and in all that time the fuel level only dropped about 3/4 "-1 " on a #5-6 setting with a few15-20 minute bursts @ the #10 setting ,,Very Efficient Indeed. It's 31 F ,damp and windy outside and it's maintained my 2000 sq ft house @ 69 F . My house is well insulated so that helps, but that's still Amazing IMHO !I mounted mine on a small 31 dollar (on sale) Harbor Fright welding cart so I'll be able to use it for different purposes and can Tee into any duct work I want to, ie; the house, off road camper, my workshop, the garage and I guess it could be used to heat my big tent as well for campground use ? That way the unit is not only portable, but pretty safe being outside.I just hope it has good longevity but in just the few short hours I've used it ,,I'M VERY VERY IMPRESSED !The control panel had come loose in shipping as it is only attached by 2 sided tape and there were a few small dents , dings and a small bend in the case and a few surface scratch's but being a body man I was able to straighten it all out OK and compound out the scratch's without it even being noticeable. None of this was very serious but It could use a bit better packaging for shipping than the original box IMO . It still has a bit of plastic/electronics/ smell and hot smell from the stainless exhaust pipe curing still, but not horrible & I think that will go away eventually? BTW,,,Defiantly get a couple better hose clamps for the exhaust pipe, the ones that come with this unit just WILL NOT squeeze down the exhaust pipe down tight enough so it won't leak exhaust gasses.It shipped very fast as well,,,one happy buyer so far. Other than the somewhat sparse packaging protecting the heater.

Installed in our school bus conversion. Heard the area well. Only issue we've had is If our battery is low the heater won't start.

Stayed worm in my roof tent all night in 37 degree temps two nights... Would buy again!

I brought this to put in my Freightliner Classic to cut down on idling.. And for the price comparison to a wabesco or espar heater this thing is just as good for a third the price, it's actually the same unit just sold as the big brands to charge you 1200 to 1500 bucks... The only down side for me being in the US is the control panel only reads in Celsius not Farenheit.. If someone has a update for it please let me know, other wise you have to Google your temps and write them down on a piece of masking tape.. but I do recommend for sure, It took me about 2hrs and this thing was breathing fire, I had one piece missing for the duct work but didn't stop me from installing and getting it working, it took about a month and a half to get the missing piece, but like I said it didn't stop it from working... I hope this helps buyers with making a decision when your looking for a unit for heat. I'm saving at least 200 bucks a week from idling my thirsty Cat engine!!!Update I have had to use my heater several times in the last month because of early cold weather and she is still cooking, I brought a different truck since my first review and let the other unit go with the truck and the buyer called me and thanked me for installing the heater in that truck.. If you want to save on fuel and save on down time with these newer def trucks because most people don't bump up the idle on there break to allow there trucks to regain, it leads to clogged regin filters and check engine lights and engines going into derate which all leads to down and shop time... Keep it moving with a bunk heater... And also remember in temps of teens and signal digits you have to idle anyway and when you truck temps aren't putting out the heat you need you can still run this heater and stay toasty...

Instructions were a bit hard to understand (translation) but after working with it I was able to figure it out for the mostpart. very efficient and cranks out the heat. Package was missing silencer but seller made it right. operation is fairly quiet other than airflow. would be great for 400+sq ft room.

This heater has worked great so far. However the provided fuel line is to small and I would definitely get a muffler for it. It is a little loud. The instructions take a little bit to figure out. Over all a good product
