Also, because diesel is a hydrocarbon, the unit has to be higher than the exhaust system entirely or water gets trapped and it will exhaust moisture or create a code. That's why the exhaust is at the bottom to get rid of internal condensation, but the exhaust pipe needs to be sloped down enough to drain as well.

So many experts!! I’m surprised there isn’t a few thousand more KZfaq channels for all those with comment channels!! Like it…been looking for a while…it’s back ordered right now. I’m a big VEVOR fan!!

So many misconceptions in this video and replies. Running on Kerosene will NOT damage the fuel pump. Domestic UK central heating uses kerosene(28sec) and geared central heating pumps run for 10's of years without failure. The heaters draw approximately 10A when the plug energises. The pump is a solenoid or piston pump. The geater is NOT 8kw and only approximately 4 and a bit kw as it Is impossible to push in enough fuel to achieve 8KW INPUT.

You have to creat negative air pressure inside the shed before it starts pulling air from doors and cracks and the only way to do that is by sucking air from the inside to outside. I run 2 diesel-heaters in my garage and never had a efficient running problem.

We are thinking about buying a diesel heater. Your video is very helpful! Thank you

Thanks for your very in depth review! I’ve been debating on which way I want to go as far as heat for a small shed, plus something I could easily take along for an enclosed trailer. Answered every question I had plus more! Very well said sir

Nicely done and good luck with your quest for 1000.

This video helped so much I bought the bigger version of the VEVOR diesel heater and I had tried multiple different transformers I must try that transformer u have thank u so much

Thanks for the heads up.

Great video you hit on a Lotta good points. Thanks for sharing. God bless you and yours.

Been wanting one of these thanks to your video I can wire it up without a car battery sitting around if I buy one

A Foxtheon iGo300 power station will power your Diesel Heater. Tested it some time ago and still use it for testing.

You will find a suitable power supply inside an old desktop pc

I suggest not running the exhaust uphill. You could collect condensation and block the exhaust over time. Some say it will burn up all the condensation but I would check and watch it for a while. Another thing you forgot to mention (and to change) is that cheap green fuel line that should be replaced because it has known to swell and leak over time, which could start a fire in some cases.

Thinking of putting one of these units in the 1975 Unimog 406 that we have...

If you put the freah air intake there it will get from the fumes of the exhaust. Thanks for the video ❤

I could be wrong but i believe all these Chinese heaters are made at the same factories in China. The same goes with the fuel pumps and all the other individual parts needed to build these all in one parking heaters. Then they are sold with different names on them. I purchased 3 ChuBu Diesel Heaters which look identical to all the other brands of chinese diesel heaters.

It's the watts it draws that shuts off the ecoflow. The delta2max is 12.6V 10A 126watts max and the DH can draw 200-250w on startup, when spikes over 126w it cuts out

thanks for theTIPS.

I have one, two months now, no complaints, deep cycle battery, with a charger to keep it charged up, on low it runs for 8 hrs plus before recharge. Even then if I want keep the charger on and running. I have it inside with exhaust out the window. Was 20 degs, for the last 2 days, kept my 30 ft coach at 62 on low setting. Use common sense.

You don't have to route the combustion air outside , but if you are doing anything in the workshop that creates dust then yes it either needs to be filtered very well or outside

First of all exhaust has to drain, point it down, second of all if you live where winter is cold then the diesel does not gel it has the proper additives in it already, I use mine in -30c, third forget the amps my Ecoflow Delta2 runs my Vevor 8k full time even when I start it in extreme temps it never shuts off. Just buy a 12v to 110 20 amp converter is much cleaner and save you some work. I run 12' of 3" air duct into my tent and the unit does not overheat at all. Make sure you tighten everything on this heater out of the box most thing are loose but so far I have used it a lot outside and it is going great except it is hard on diesel.

I have one that i will be using in my green house for when i start my seeds

I just came across a new diesel heater (5kW) it is rated 40W during use and stays within 8 amps during startup - it works with all my power stations. It is sold for 80 Euros on Amazon under the KESSER brand name. It also uses the new style controller with the 1234 pin and an automatic mode that actually turns the unit off after reaching the set temperature (somewhat buggy though). Video coming soon -

Your battery dc power must be on low side of a normal 12 volt battery. A fully charged 12 volt battery would see 13.2 to 13.5 volts. Just taking guess on voltage and amp. I have seen many tests which show these heaters hitting 10.5 amps on startup. They call them 8kw they truly are 5kw heater units. Take a look at the Maxpeedingrods brand, they come with heavy duty components which can be bought for any heaters, better quieter pumps, hose, etc.

Great video: good info about solar gen dc outlets and diesel gelling. Question about exhaust thru a wall: any worries about mice or snakes trying to enter exhaust port when not in use or do they avoid diesel odors?

Nice presentation 1 question inside air discharge and intake where is return air entering for supply heated air? To answer your question about the cigarette adopter seems to me the amperage of the power station is only 20 amp not enough to handle inrush draw the heater especially the glow coil combined with the motor my guess is the intake air is shared by both?

All cold weather states have the diesel treated for well below zero. And colder in more extreme climates.

The converter…if I’m understanding you right, I can wire that up straight from my heater wire and plug into a standard 110 outlet thereby eliminating the need for a battery or power station? I intend to run this exclusively in my garage when I’m working in there. I’m going to mount this on a shelf and use my former pellet stove intake and exhaust piping to do those jobs. But I did want a straight into the wall outlet power supply instead of a battery or power station. This inverter should do that for me? Correct? Outstanding review. I’ll subscribe but I looked at your other videos and they aren’t any I would personally benefit from…although…you did do this one so, future videos are not necessarily out of the question!😎👍🏻 Thanks for your help. Oh, Vevors “heavy duty” carport….not so heavy duty! Didn’t survive 4 months in New Hampshire! But vevor is awesome! Full refund and I did not have to figure out how to return the destroyed one! Keep it they said! Well….i guess maybe I can find some use for parts that survived!🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏻 But vevor stands fully behind their products!

Nice shop

The VEVOR manual online never states its amperage draw (only that it is a 12v system) but the wiring diagram DOES show an inline 20A fuse being used between the battery source for this model. The newer models specifically show a battery source needing an amperage load higher than 15A to work. These are meant to be used in vehicle/car battery situations, which can handle those loads so it makes sense. Bluetti boasts 15A AC outlets if you want to try one of those.

Thanks for the info, I have one for my shop. I just need to get it out of the box lol. By the way, I noticed your Ridged Gen under your bench, I have one just like it, but the 30 amp breakers don't last long. I wonder if you knew where a fellow could get them? I called Ridged, and they said they are no longer available. Just hoped you might have a suggestion. Thanks from off grid in Central BC.

Same problem cost me 3 days of headaches and calls to vevor ,same 3 button panel no error codes, I WAS using a 15A power supply as you have , Unit turned off after 39 seconds.. 12v15A .. Had to use a battery..

Helpful, are any of the other ones going on you trips?

You will eventually have a problem with water accumulation in the low point of the exhaust.

Q: did the cigarette lighter not power the unit up because it was DC and not AC ? Could using a bridge rectifier have solved the problem and allowed you to use the cigarette lighter supply? Good video I subscribed I’ve been looking at these units.

The 12 volt that you pinned in the comments, is out of stock, they don't know if and when it will be in stock again. Will any of the converters work, as long as it is 12 volt and 30 amps and 360 watts. Would a 12 volt battery with a battery maintainer work as well

Wire it up directly into a 12 volt battery that is fully charged. If it runs then it’s the generator. I have seen this problem with other video trying to run of a generator and wouldn’t run.

Even though you omitted the word ‘wicked’-there’s no way you’re not a fellow New Englander.

Do you know how long the eco flow will run for using the invertor , i discovered yesterday that i have the same problem starting mine up and i thought an invertor would be the soloution but i have no idea how long it will run for , any help would be much appreciated,

in your situation how easy is it to re fuel under that shelf?

I have watched several of these Chinese built air heater reviews and I see that all the units are almost exactly the same unit, they are being bought from the very same factory, and different Chinese companies are then selling them, under their own brand name, be it Vevor, Sivel or Ncalory, etc. So I guess buy the one that has the best value/price. But repair any mistakes in manufacturing, especially the cheap fuel line. Use your best judgement on what is a good repair/modification. Be careful as some over heat, since there is no over-heat control circuit of sensing circuit. The only fuel control is the fuel pump pressure setting. The units do best at 4.4 psi and the unit is not as efficient at highest setting 5.4 psi. Allow 3 to 4 hrs after initial start up to burn off the stinky odor from the heat exchanger plastic cover and manufacturing oils. The units are best started up initially outside for this and fire safety reasons. QED E. Engr. 50 yrs

It looks like you are using an AC clamp meter to measure DC current and your all in one would be bettter mounted on the floor as heat rises.

I've got the hcalory and vtoman power bank with same issue. I'm using a leisure battery and still struggles to start, takes three attempts with battery on charge. Do i need that power supply then ?

Run the exhaust pipe downhill

Throw an "r" in theey somewheeea

A lot of good points..I won't buy one for my campervan.

Running on kerosene will ruin your pump. Kerosene does not have lubricant properties like diesel does. Also if you use one of those solar generator power packs and you plug your heater into the cigarette lighter adapter it has to run at 15 amps or higher otherwise when the glow plug kicks on you will get an error code on the power supply and your diesel heater will shut off immediately. If you are going to use DC current you're better off connecting it to either a car battery or buy yourself a cheap 100 amp hour lithium battery and your heater will run for 2 days on the lithium battery. Unfortunately for the lithium battery you will have to buy a Lipe04 specific battery charger. A 30 amp charger will charge your battery quicker.

I wonder if any of the keyboard experts have/do even own one?

Please..I have no heat

lol VEVOR french chinglish?? add more funs to your day.

Use seafoam engine treatment in your fuel

Hard video to watch. Too much repetition (audio vomit) and the bouncing "gopro" - is a "nogo". That said, thanks for the tip and info on duct sizing. Good to know.

Heet is not for diesel

The first 10 minutes of your video is just purely unboxing and when you said you were going to angle your exhaust up well that’s a No,no as it creates a place for water to sit so the exhaust won’t go out and when you said that you’re putting your intake beside your exhaust because if it’s inside it’s going to suck air from inside through the doors and cracks I just had to shut your video off because you don’t know what you’re talking about.
