Correct. If you watch the video at about the 9:10 mark, I address this.

That should be more than enough power. Thank you very much for the sub!!!

Thank you, glad it helped!!!

I am looking into a cheap plastic tote that I can slot for the hose and intake to put over it when it is snowing or raining. I did stay out one night last week and used a cardboard box and it work well....beside getting a bit soggy. I think a tote will work great.

Been working very well so far.

Yeah, I ran this one for several hours this past summer when it was hot out. I had zero smell issues during this cold weather test. I am reluctantly looking forward to when the weather gets really cold for a hard sub-zero (25-35 degrees below zero) test.

Thanks. I was able to find that from another of your videos and ordered them.

It is a fairly tight slip fit for now. If it starts falling off in the wind, I have two hose clamps in my tool box

Thank you for the kind words!!!

When someone produces thousands of items, there will be duds. Country of origin doesnt matter. Eberspracher and Webasto are the originals. Everything else developed copies.

Yes, when I do the -30 degree test in a couple of months, I'll see if I have too much heat loss

4" dryer hose

I am a big fan of solar generators.

Would be hard to carry enough batteries to heat in winter. A small 1500 watt heater will only last a few hours or less.

@ I’m using a 200 watt heater that runs continuously powered by 4500 wh Pecron battery system. Enough heat to keep a teardrop camper warm during cold 20 degree nights. Then use the Pecron 500 watt car battery DC charger to charge it back up when I drive to next location. My travels consist of getting up traveling to a new location and finding a camp by 4 pm repeat. This might not work if you have a roof top tent that is poorly insulated.

It works really well and I have not experienced any foul odors while the heater is running.

The campground we used to go to in the trailer by the river

It is an HCalory www.amazon.com/HCALORY-Portable-Bluetooth-Control-Parking/dp/B0CRDRG55B?th=1

@@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures Thanks, how long was it on and how much fuel did you use since you had the unit on low?

@@David_Arteman I used a little over a half a tank in about 11 hours, The tank is kinda small, maybe a little over a gallon and a half.

I used a Big Buddy last winter and condensation was terrible, I had zero condensation with this set up. So far so good!

Great test. I’m definitely going to put A diesel heater in my camper van project just for Montana. We are up in petroleum County Montana hunting right now. The lowest it’s been was 12° today. The low was 27° but the wind was howling 25 miles an hour painfully cold. Thank you for sharing the video

@@todstrucks2919 Hope you fill your tags!!!!!!!

Thanks and congratulations on being the first comment!!!

Thanks!!!

I seriously researched the kerosene mix, but at almost 7 dollars a gallon...nope. Red diesel it is. Did a test (no video) at about 8700 feet a few eeks ago, zero issues, we'll see how it performs at altitude in extreme cold here in a few weeks. Thanks for the comment.

@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures I understand what you are saying , but kerosene isn't that price in Mississippi.

@@Fry8HalR But it is here.

Thank you for the sub. Get ready for a mild to cold test shortly, not quite cold enough for a severe weather test but am excited to see how it does in the teens/twenties. Hopefully next week.

Most Ace hardware stores carry them

Most welcome.

A little bit when I was running it just to check airflow, being metal based all of that went away pretty early in my testing. I got the hose at Ace hardware

Watch starting around the 9 minute mark.

Nope, when in the field, I set the heater on a small foam pad...quiet as a mouse.

Check out the 4 minute 35 second mark on the video.

@@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures so for now you just keep it outside?

@@bearlycamping Yup

@@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures gotcha, I thought that wasn't good for the lithium power station

I'm sure there will be some loss, but the interior of my camper is only 140 cubic feet. I plan on doing a -20 or colder camping trip this winter as another test. Keep an eye open for it around Dec or Jan.

Yes, There’s heat loss. I wrapped my hose with double reflective wrap and it made a big difference on the temperature of the heat coming inside. I just added a video on my channel about the setup I did

@@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures Thanks!!!

Thanks for the kind words.

Correct, I am planning on installing 100-200 Ah's of power using LiFePo batteries powered by solar thus eliminating to need for power stations. Although I will still bring one when going out for charging electronics etc when away from the camper.

@@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures This is the way.

BTW, subscribed to your channel, good content.

@@Montana_Outdoor_Adventures thanks, followed back!

I actually thought of that, but there just was not enough room, and the heater fan and fuel pump would have been unacceptably load.
