Man I wish we had these portable diesel heaters back in the 80s would have been great in our ice shanty’s !

If you hooked up a pipe to the intake on the heater and put that in the tent it would be a lot more efficient and you could run it on a lower setting.

Buy a tripod - unwatchable!

How do you have the ratchet straps set up?

Any issues with the carrier ?

Looks nice. I've noticed you didn't provide any ventilation for the box. How hot does it get inside with lid closed? You could take the intake filter and put it on directly onto bottom of the heater intake. Just provide some ventilation. Hcalory came out with pre installed heater in a case. Some what flimsey. I think I'll use Ridgid tool case for mine.

I think a metal box would work better (plastic can be brittle and melts dealing with higher temps) I would go that route if used outside for ice fishing or camping.

What an AWESOME setup! Look forward to more videos of you using it. New sub.

Love the mods

Really like your flip over set up. Very clean and organized. Working on mine and planning to put together a diesel heater for it. Have referred back to your video a couple times. Great job.

Awesome video. I am planning on doing the exact same thing in a Ridgid Pro 2.0 medium tool box. The part that has me stumped is the different rigid fuel line kits out there. The most recommended kit I have seen seems to have 2 different sizes of tubing, one 4mm OD and one 5mm OD. I am not sure why you would need 2 different sizes when the ID is the same. This would also require different sized connecting rubber tubes. What kit or list of parts did you use? Also, what fuel filter? Thanks.

Whoops spoke to soon great job

Great job. Muffler needs to slope for drainage and the hole in the muffler housing needs to be down also

Have you made any updates to this setup? I am basing my build around yours and would love to hear about what worked/didn't work.

I have an old (2014) Apple Server Tower that would have made an EXCELLENT case for the heater...go rid it 2 months ago :(

perfect for one!

What kind of flange did you use to connect the combustion intake filter to the box?

What size box is it

Hi! Just wondering how the thru-hull fitting has worked, did the plastic case hold up?

Any updates to this build? Anything that you would do differently? Thanks great content

I miss frabil, have not seen them at stores for a few years now, my 1st flip was the aegis, forgot they were the 1st with the side door and that shack is gigantic and perfect for ice camping

What gauge wire does the controller need? Like to run it 10 to 15 feet.

Excellent work

Thanks for you vidéos, how did you make your connector 12v for your jackery, does it change the capacity for amps, ? i made à cigarette lighther 12 v with my ecoflow and thé diesel heather draws too much amps, so thé éco flow stops. I Didn’t thought make that type of connector

Can you use a smaller jackery to run the heater? How loud is it? Want ot do stealth camping in the city, but concerted that people in the neighbourhood would hear it. Did the second muffler help?

The heat comes out at about 180 degrees your going to cook inside that tent this is not a heater for a small tent ! Trust me it’s waaaaaaayyyy over kill

Thanks for taking the time post this, really nice all in one build. Have you had any issues with the plastic heat exhaust flanges melting? One of the flange reviews indicates they had that problem.

I've also had issued using the 12v cigarette plug for power. What did you use to run it off your jackery? Could you include a link to what you bought?

Good job smarty pants! I think it might work better if you turn the sled around so that you drive onto the curve slanted side first. Works good the way you have it but might be smoother without the sled hobbling around the way it does driving onto the the back side or the 90° edge.

How many hours of operation does this run on one tank of gas, ( your size )

Consider me inspired. Nice work!

My opinion is that warm air should always be pushed from the bottom of the room, and according to the laws of physics, it will then go up. Less fuel would be used for heating and the temperature would be more evenly and comfortably distributed.

What about a link to the electrical connections? Thanks

Great video, where did you buy the machine? I’m in Utah as well.

Would only recommend small trailer! To much risk involved with a 500 pound cargo hitch hauling a 340 pound machine over bumps and uneven roads.

Wonderful looking setup. I just spent my first two nights on the ice and was pretty miserable so always good to see some ideas to make it better.

What unit is the one you purchased. Does not look like thd Vevor. Thanks

Nice set up. What’s the size and brand of your table?

Very nice job!

I would add a fuel shut off valve that way if you suddenly loose power it won't fry the ECU.

Great video buddy 😊

Great build, thanks for sharing! What is that 12V Connection you use to connect power on the side? Maybe you have Amazon Link?

Thanks for the video! I just ordered a jackery 550 and a diesel heater, cant wait to use them

So based on battery consumption would you be comfortable on a 3 day trip?

Just got a diesel heater and I really like your build. This video is awesome for me, you did an excellent job explaining and showing everything. Take care my friend!!

I'm from wyoming too. Is your sled long enough that you don't have so squish in? I have the ice hunter 285 and i think its the same sled

Damn that’s nice

Out'a sight!!

Wow…sometimes KZbin suggests something that makes me wonder how it knows me so well. Amazing…I love that floor

Good fishing set up, and thanks for the diesel heater revue.
