I think a lot of people misunderstand how tricky and finnicky diesel heaters in general can be to operate. If you use a hose that's 3" on a high setting, it'll overheat. If you unplug it without proper shutdown, it'll foul and cake with soot. A lot of them require a ton of power to start, and when batteries can't keep up they error out. I really don't think these things are as bad to operate and people make them out to be, I really just think they have some finnicky operating instructions and procedures, but operate reliably within those limits. Keep up the good work!

I use a diesel heater to heat my 800 sq ft cabin in Montana. I'm on my 2nd one while I wait for a new fan motor for my first one. It lasted 1-1/2 winters before soot built up on the motor and seized it. I cleaned off the soot but it also built up on the brushes and messed them up. The fans are much louder than the fuel pump, which I can't even hear after it is warmed up and running. ALL Chinese diesel heaters are the SAME inside. This one is TWICE twice as expensive as the last one I bought last week, bc of the nice case.

The reason cheaper models don't come with the silent pump, is exactly what you think... they're cheaper, and controlling them is easier. The clicking pumps are solenoid (pulse pump) or binary... (on or off). This is also why the clicking is still audible if you get a silent pump, because the binary controller is still sending the same signal. The quieter systems will have a PWM pump and controller. Larger, expensive, high output models (not the Chinese design) may use a constant flow pump with a diverter/regulator valve.

Thanks for the video, would recommend some more research and a update. Your AC to DC setup is just sucking back the losses in efficiency.. DC to DC and find a better solar generator You might want to do some research on the supplied hose and if it’s drier rated. The one you picked up from Canadian hardware store is actually rated for driers. Good reasons for that rating Would be nice for a tear down, as many offshore heaters are cursed with defects. Gas tanks and gas caps leaking and incorrectly vented caps. Wrong type of gas lines used, poor, improper and dangerous wiring inside. Being that you’re taking this on earthquake trips in the backcountry. I would highly recommend disassembling and verifying the proper parts and connections used. Many of the FB diesel heater groups can steer you in the right direction.

I came here for the heater review... I hope people read this comment. The Ram Ecodiesel is a time bomb for its owners that are going to fail, and cost you around $15000 to fix when the CP4 High pressure fuel pump grinds itself into glitter. How Stellantis is legally allowed to sell vehicles with this pump is beyond me. They used it the 2015-20 ram 1500s, and the pump has been used in GM and Ford diesels as well. All have the same result. The pump self destructs and sends grindings throughout the entire system and shuts down permanently. Replacement of the ENTIRE fuel system is NECESSARY. Some techs will clean the tank, but the fuel lines, injecctors, loft pump, everything that has fuel in it will have metal in it. Rick--- diesel tech.

@UnwindingRoads the replacement for the ecodiesel is to retrofit it to the older CP3 pump. All I do all day is diesel repair. No American manufactured truck will not grenade the CP4. It's not because our fuel is different either as many thought. Bosch is very clear on the engineering of the CP4. It requires high pressure and high volume fuel delivered to it, and American manufacturers use high volume low pressure. I personally believed it was our fuel, with a combination of neglect and abuse. Turns out the issue is clear, that's why Bosch is not liable.

It has 7 reviews and it’s got 2-1/2 stars. Are you being paid by them? 😂😅
@UnwindingRoadsАй бұрын
@notoriouslopez1 people buying this one or not has no effect on me. I prefer this one over my vevor. If you actually read the comments, ppl are upset and think it doesn't work with DC. So I'd chalk that up as user error. You can't run it off a cigarette plug. You can hook it straight up to a battery if you don't want to use ac. I do make money when people buy the vevor so let me know if you want the link for that one 😜😉

@UnwindingRoads21 күн бұрын
@@seanmurphy1026 almost all of the reviews are based on power supply. It comes with an ac adapter I don't think people are using. That said, in the comments there's been complaints about the product coming in scratched or not working. I've used mine every week for days at a time and it's been flawless so not sure what's going on.
