What a fantastic review. I was unaware of this product until now. I wonder if they ship internationally?

I have two different sailboats and I've got two different heaters. My larger boat has the Dickinson in it and I'm using my smaller sailboat as a test bed to test the Chinese diesel heater. I would recommend having both

It will run on low One or two? Perhaps yes, but if you have to turn it up you don't have electricity. You don't have a fan and you will get carbon and it will eventually shut itself off. I had that problem

Why can't they make an ignition starter then having to put that paper starter? Or have a small open hole at the bottom so u can stick a long match to light it than having to open the glass door?

U can't wake up, if ur dead. 😉 That looks really nice, the Dickinson stove.

Very nicely done

rad ambulance! miss mine so much

What a beautiful job you did on that conversion. be proud of yourself! I’m sure it’s a blessing to whoever you sold it to. May I ask what you sold it for? I’m new to this world trying to find conversion van that is a second home, but don’t wanna pay $100,000 for it! If you come across anything, thank you for sending it my way do you do conversions as part of your work?

Awesome build 😎👍

Brilliantly explained 😊😉👍

I LISTENED TO MOST OF THIS VID BUT Whats the Fuel Burn per Hour ?....Nice Coffee Cup, Y'all GRINCH That from a Roadside Truck Stop? 😂

Worlds best….🤦🏻‍♂️

Very nice. I was thinking of living in something like this while I buy land and build a house in Alaska. I think this would work well.

Hi. Beautiful! Have you sold this? I am very interested. I live in Tennessee and could come out and see it in the next day or so. Please let me know.

Very helpful thank you!! Question? is there a benefit to adding a fuel filter? You are a an effective teacher, a good skillset : ) for that alone I will subscribe and follow! Im planning a shuttle bus build, ding my due diligence, your video is very helpful with all the insight and detail I needed for an informed decision! So appreciate that!!

Very impressive and so well thought! I

What is your background that enables you to put all of this together? Not for your average person. If you were to create some sort of a Instruction Manual for sale, many people might buy it.

So build a skirting kit that seals the underside down to the ground. Roll it up and store it in tubing on top of truck wheen not needed. 2 inch foam panels on windows. Then put the wood stove back. If the stove is efficient and uses outside air for combustion a load should burn 6 hours, so what. It will be cold in the morning but not freezing. And all of this diesel stuff is crazy complicated and expensive and wastes inside heated air....why?

The floor heat was a smart choice.

Price??

"I don't want to wake up dead one night." Well, if you're dead, you might find that waking up is a skill you no longer possess.

Genius! By the way, Born Free Motor Coach (no longer in business) made class C's designed to survive a roll over.

Great job on this. This has to be the best ambulance conversion I’ve seen.

I am blown away by the thoughtful engineering that went into this build, it made me realize that if you choose van life, one should consider all the possibilities that come with decision. Thank you for sharing.

I have used Dickinson diesel heaters on boats in Alaska for years and love them. My question is how does the stove perform at altitude? As you note, the fuel/air ratio is critical. I have wondered if they might not run sooty at higher elevations. The carburetor is adjustable, but that would be a pain to do on the regular.

word of caution, if they ambulance shell is aluminum make sure that coating specifically states it will work with aluminum. aluminum naturally repels most paints and coatings.it needs special processes to the surface of the aluminum and special paint/coatings. also vinyl wraps wont last more than a year or so before they just bubble off.

OR... Just spend about 10% and get a Chinese diesel heater. I've had one running for four years with no issues. I also run several fans that are usb to keep the air circulating. Cheap, efficient, easily replaceable if something goes wrong.

Probably best to put a condenser in the elements like a normal person. Saying the outside is the only place it can go is like saying oh I just use my mouth to eat this food

Propane is much cheaper than diesel. Olympian Wave 6 or 8 would be more cost effective. It’s also dry heat. Mr Heater Buddies are not dry heat.

Wayyyy too expensive. You can buy Chinese diesel heaters for $100. The one your showing is about $1400 in USA.

You can adjust the metering value and burn kerosine. Much cleaner and no shoot build-up. Kerosine is #1 diesel. Cheers

Your ambulance build is phenomenal but I have to say there's something a little eerie about transforming a former ambulance, where people were brought on board to be saved and helped medically during emergencies and obviously there were some that didn't survive, as a means for a home on wheels. I'm just curious about your thoughts on that?

Is this beautiful Truck for SALE!? I want to buy it. Very nice.

I could totally live in that! Omg I wish I could build one like that !

Very well thought out….excellent work! lol are you an engineer Great job!

That's not good because you're not going to be able to put additional things like tools groceries any camping equipment you might want to bring with you all of that you only have 100 pounds to spare so maybe just inviting an extra person is too heavy. I used to drive trucks cross-country and one time I had a load of steel coils that was so heavy I only had enough room to put 250 worth of fuel in my truck. I'm in a truck that should be able to drive more than halfway across the country on a full tank of fuel and I had to stop every 200 to 250 miles just to top it off because from where I'm fueling up now there may not be a fuel station 250 Mi away, it may be 150 or 350 miles away!

Flooring will help but is the ambulance sealed well? If not all the hot air will escape for nothing

I saw your channel name, and I thought it said, "Hangin with the Hearse". 😂 My bad. 🎉

Very nice .I almost bought one for the same purpose. 😢

Cool but creepy 🫣

What’s under the hood 😅

How much do you weigh?

Depends on state. My state it's 10 thousand lbs is cut off point. requires commercial inspection. as well as other issues. Regardless nice job. Also water adds 8lbs per gallon and unless baffled can make vehicle unstable.

Apocalypse vehicle?

I really appreciate your detailed explanations! Thank you!

Who would want to live in a vehicle a ton of people have died in? That would be a nightmare for a Sensitive. Talk about the trauma energy in those walls.

You gound the tough way to start it up and not what Dickenson recommended to me. Cout a disk of fiberglass cloth and place it in the bottom if the well so it can become soaked with diesel. Open the control knob all the way and let a little puddle of diesel form, soaking the fiberglass disk. Put alcohol in a squeeze bottle. Squirt some into the chamber. I dont know how much. Enough. Enough to burn for a few minutes. A tabespoon?. Stick a long grill lighter in and light the alcohol. Run the draft fan at the bottom to get the heat going. Once vaporization starts you can speed up the fan. Then once it's running nicely you can stop the fan. The Newport is great because it is a steady source of heat. I once had mine glowing red in about 10 minutes.

No, because spirits can roam any dwelling, I would be scared about the people who passed away in it lol

Nice job Boss.

Did you only learn the exact primary structure (2x2 columns) upon inspection during demo, or did you have some other source. I've been wondering how to know the primary structure that may be hidden in various ambulances.
