Maxpeedingrods Diesel Heater MXR1F Get's Rigged Up

[@OFP2]

Make sure you use them glove for the waddin Martin , I have the m3 and erm I forgot and I’m still picking glass out my fingers 😅

[@DiecastPowderCoating]

Looks a great heater Martin. I lost my original one in the fire, but would like to put the one in the house into the shed. I've been worried the exhaust getting too hot on the wood, but didn't have any trouble with the other one but now scared of fire. Take care, Jeff

[@derbyjohn972]

Nice to see you back in the workshop Martin. Cracking walk through will be looking into one for the camper van mate 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Lambip1]

Great video, thanks Martin. Could you use one of these to heat your house? Aka cheaper that using the central heating?

[@retrorestore]

Some people do that.

[@mjelkin89]

Hi great video, just a question if the installation needs an intake hose rather than the square grill how do you fit it on? as my application needs ducting hose on air inlet and heat outlet sides?

[@ionracer24]

Nice demo martin. Very easy to under stand. I saw one like it on ants pants channel but a different brand i think. I dont know how u'd use it in a vehicle unless it was a van or motorhome. As always, thanx for sharin!

[@Cybertruck1000]

Just fitted one of these from same company. Looks like buying a lower priced model with same functions would save a lot. A company adding better quality clips, fuel line, exhaust wrap, sachet of exhaust paste with a clear instruction book would do well. It seems most people bin sub par components straight away. Handy that the tank has threaded section at the bottom but any rubbish which lays at bottom of tank will collect there and get drawn in. I inserted about 25mm of the fuel pipe inside the threaded section which would stand clear of the impurities at the bottom of tank. It may be overkill but first time I've installed one of these.

I was given a brand new in the box Maxpeedingrods 5kw diesel heater by a friend. It sat in the box unused for almost a year. After about three months post installation it started playing up. I would get a fan error. E8. Eventually it became unusable. I replaced the motor and fan unit. I pulled the original motor apart. The failure was due to the brushes being carelessly installed at the factory. The braid was rubbing on the brush holder and preventing the brush from making contact with the commutator. As a result the commutator showed signs of burning. Also the orange fuel tank cap split around the edge. I never over-tightened it. There is no need to spend extra money on a branded diesel heater they are all made the same way and probably in the same factories.

Great demo Martin. Looks like a nice bit of kit.

[@STTC]

These heaters are pretty much all the same and i’ve had them for around 15 yrs now, I’m amazed that people are only just discovering them as you probably are too. The real developments are in the controllers and this one looks super simple,,,, I wonder if they sell the controller separately with an adapter for the classic chinese heater as this would be a top seller to my mind, great video martin 🤟🏻

[@lnwolf41]

You did a good demo, and it is quiet. What is its price compared to the one you have mounted? Is the overall quality equal to the other units, better. Worse?

[@retrorestore]

They look the same

[@tinkeringtaylor3053]

Nice bit of kit for the new cabin Martin,great review 👌

[@ianbuchanan149]

Good Vid Martin, but I wouldn't use those thin mouting plates on a van, nearly set mine of fire. Ended up getting a heavy duty turret plate and fitting that for safety.

[@Alan-r2v9s]

Hi my friend the part you said was a filter looks like a water trap . Hope this helps .👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@andrewcollins867]

Was hoping your next one would be the 220v plug in one to review

[@rhysstatham7407]

Didn’t explain the power supply you used I take it it’s a 240 to 12 volt transformer which one do you use.

[@retrorestore]

Yes it is.

[@moonshinepz]

that is not a bad price at all for the convenience of the extra bits that others don't supply.

[@ShadowzGSD]

you will be warm enough soon with all these heaters 🤣

[@alandykes2519]

Great review Martin 👍👍👍👍

[@retrorestore]

Thanks 👍

[@tomf4547]

I can't use the one I fitted in my garage. The condensation soaks everything

Nice one mate, Within the Spectrum?!! I like that word 🙂

Great video Martin. Thanks for sharing.

Love the vid's :) My Wife likes your cooking vid's, Rizla's Top tip, Use a socket to do up the clips, your fingers will love you for it :)

[@Pete.Ty1]

👍👍👍.Thanks Martin

[@ReTroxStyleZ]

When I run the priming sequence the unit says manual injection mode etc but then proceeds to light up the heater plug symbol and then the pump clicks 2/3 times and the unit shuts down. Have you experienced anything like this with yours or other models.

[@retrorestore]

No I have not, worry

[@garethevans3074]

I have the same model and can't regulate the heat. It just blows 196°c or 0 no happy medium. Can turn the fan down but not the heat

[@richardjohnston4682]

What fuel is he using,diesel or home heating oil (UK)?

[@retrorestore]

Heating oli with a drop of atm.

[@richardjohnston4682]

Looks the same as any of the other diesel heaters but twice the price.

Great video mart , I hope you are ok 👍

All good Phil.

Hi Martin would this be capable of heating a single car garage ?

[@retrorestore]

Yes, very much so. 1 heats up my double workshop very quickly.

[@mcginn002]

[@davestatham812]

Great bit of kit to keep ya warm in the shed over winter, cracking review Martin, 👍🏻❤

[@psycho3344]

What exactly is the point of these heaters? When you can just get a log burner?

[@retrorestore]

Every heater has its merits for different installations.

[@ShadowzGSD]

apart from almost instant heat, smaller footprint, less intrusive installation, wall mountable, lightweight, safer to use in dusty environments etc..

[@psycho3344]

@@retrorestore cheers for the reply, It was a genuine question as I have never come across one of these diesel heaters. We have always used gas or log burners you see. Do they use much fuel?

[@terryatkinson899]

Now you've all the heaters, it'll probably be a mild winter 🙄

[@leeneal6969]

didn't you already fit one last year?

[@retrorestore]

Yes, didn't you see it on the wall behind me?

family gift 🎁 ideas 💡 Solar Generators. The grid is old. we still have brown outs sometimes on-off back on. Winter bigger demands transformers just blow. Family members who have c-pap machines to kids night lights fish tanks. You need to shop accordingly. Yes they are pricey but no gas or oil to fool with. Run a computer 💻 so kids can play games. Check owners manual for power requirements. if you buy a unit under powered you will break the electronics. Jackery for example goes by watts. their newest one is 2,000 watts on wheels that unit is great for water kettles to your air fryers to pellet grills. The 1,000 watt will run Trager small tail gator unit. But be mindful charging by the sun with solar takes a while but with jackery you can use the panels alone to plug usb things. Blue etti is great to. both have usb and house hold plugs. 🔌 Jackery rule keep units out direct sun light panels only. neither are water proof. Jackery has usb led light 💡 string to hang low/medium/high settings.
