Hello Everyone,
I Received another great product from Vevor and it's the 8kw Diesel Heater with an upgraded control unit. I am going to test it out to see if this is the ultimate way to keep you warm during winter camping!
And it's powered by EBL 1000-watt Power Station! so it should power the diesel heater all night.

@PainterD54 4 ай бұрын

The 8KW is actually just the 5KW relabeled. There is no such thing as an 8KW model. If you did your research you will fin this out. It's a lie but atleast most people know it and just buy a 5KW to save a few bucks. These heaters are mostly all from the same company. The Vevor, Wippro, some of the Hcalory and no name brands are identical except for the sticker on them. And they all still come with the cheap useless green fuel line that is garbage and should be outlawed. It has been known to swell and leak, which could cause a fire being so close to the exhaust port! Don't use it.

hey man. love this video. but quick question. how safe are these mounting into an enclosed van with the exhaust helpfully routed out and sealed properly. would the unit being inside a small place be an issue at all?

@ChasingAdventuresCO 6 ай бұрын

Thank you and no, as long as the exhaust is tightly sealed, you wont have any problems running it inside. I at times put the heater inside the tent during raining days and it works.

@MikeBabsBC 6 ай бұрын

Hi! Great review, thank you! One question on the temperature control. Is the temperature only sensed at the Controller? if so, is the controller detachable to bring into the tent so it's reading the ambient air in there?

@ChasingAdventuresCO 6 ай бұрын

Great question. Yes, you are correct but the wire is only about 9 inch long so if you want it longer so you can bring it in the tent, you can cut and attach longer wires.

@artielatzko9379 4 ай бұрын

the hole in the cap is not to let pressure out. atmospheric pressure is 14.7. in order to pump from the tank , air has to enter into the top of the tank. If that hole is blocked as the fuel is used it will create a Vacuum and your fuel flow will stop.

@ChasingAdventuresCO 4 ай бұрын

it works both ways, otherwise, the tank will blow up as you go higher in elevation so it needs to release the air build-up as well.

@outside-atlast9113 6 ай бұрын

Hello my friend, you should try putting a plastic bag under your fuel cap in and around the threads, that should help stop the leaks. Take care.

Thanks for your video can this be used outside like left outside your tent in rain or bad weather And just pipe the hot air in your tent

@ChasingAdventuresCO 6 ай бұрын

it is ideal to leave it outside of the tent but it's not weatherproof so if it rains, you have to have it covered. I usually have an umbrella over it.

@Mugabis Ай бұрын

an excellent product, the only drawback is that it does not have an ambient thermostat to stop it when it reaches the set temperature.

@ChasingAdventuresCO Ай бұрын

The ambient thermostat is built in to the main controller so you can bring that into the tent.

At max seeing using you ebl 1000, if feul wasn't an issue how long would you be able to run it for on max with that power station?

if you are running only a diesel heater at max temp. with the 1000@ power station, you should be able to heat it for around 20 hours.

Thank you for the video. Quick question: if I leave the heater outside of camper, does it have an indoor temperature sensor to automatically stop/start by indoor temperature?

@ChasingAdventuresCO 7 ай бұрын

great question! the sensor is in the controller so as long as you have the controller in the camper, it will work. however, the cable for the controller is a bit short so you have to extend it.

@ChasingAdventuresCO 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for your input! I was only testing it but normally I would put a electrical tape so it won't short like you mentioned and the cap has relief valve so it cam spill out the diesel fuel when it's relieving the gas.

How'd you get away with using 10 amp and not 15 amp ? Says in the manual in 3 pages don't use cigi lighter and 10 amp isnt enough for glow plug ?

@ChasingAdventuresCO 19 күн бұрын

14 amp is needed it only to start the diesel heater and some powerstation like the EBL I am using can boost output amp and will be able to be put out close to 14 amps. Like 13.6 so it works. But other powerstaion like the bluettie, and vtoman couldn't get it to start.

It sounds like the ticking noise of the pump kinda got quieter after it got up and running. Is that your observation?

It sounds the same but when you lower the temperature, it slows down. And when the heater is outside of the tent, you barely hear tje ticking noise

Brian, did your unit need priming in the beginning, or did it automatically go thru the priming sequence first?

@ChasingAdventuresCO 6 ай бұрын

Hi, no, no priming needed. just filled with diesel and fired it up and started right away.

@TX_TANK 6 ай бұрын

@ChasingAdventuresCO Okay, yeah, I think the newer models with the digital display have an automatic priming sequence when you start it. The older models need to be primed manually first, then started. Thanks brother. 🤙🏼

@ChasingAdventuresCO 6 ай бұрын

@@TX_TANK I have an older Vevor model too and in the manual, it said to prime it first so I primed it and it was a big mess. LOL but I recently tested another new diesel heater with an even older 1st gen controller, and I started it without priming and it worked!!

@TX_TANK 6 ай бұрын

@ChasingAdventuresCO Cool brother, I remember that you had to tear apart that 1st heater to figure out why it wasn't working. I made a few mods with mine: padded the carrying handle, added a 90° adapter to the exhaust pipe for quick disconnect, and added a 5 ft expandable air duct hose to really stretch it out into the tent. If I have time, I'll put up a video next month. Thanks again for suggesting the heater, definitely works great. 👍🏻

@ChasingAdventuresCO 6 ай бұрын

@TX_Tank oh yeah. That was no fun.. and the whole time, I thought it was something wrong with the diesel heater 😒... lol. And yes! Would love to see your mods to the it. Also what hose are you using? I tried a dryer hose and it didn't work out too well. It was giving off this rubber smelling that gave me a headache.
