    To get great fuel consumption change the secret settings,1688 is the code if I remember right,1.1hz and low fan speed to 1650

    Hi can I point out your fuel pipe is rubbing on the exhaust!

    Thanks for the 2 year review. Many do reviews on new products then you never see or hear about the product again.

      Thanks! It’s the review you want if your thinking of getting one. It served us really well and we wouldn’t have been able to go to some of the places without it

    As you may already be aware, your controller is not (easily) adjustable as is Enjoyed uour simple, but informative, video.paddy’s. A sensible choice to purchase the smaller heater - a 4kW version would not allow you to turn it down low enough.

    I love you guy's accents...I'm going to get one based on ur info. U say the 2kw is more than sufficient?? I'm from New England, New Hampshire to be exact and the winter has been fairly mild with the exception of a 15 below at the beginning of the month. Thanks for the video

    Have a question for you...did you have a small smell of burning plastic coming from the heater??...mine does that and can't get rid of it...pretty annoying.

    10 amps is the norm for glowplug draw, because most fag lighter sockets are limited to 10 amps and most are not capable of achieving that and blow fuses.same goes using most solar batteries dc outputs are not capable and trip unless they use inverter, then step it back down to 12v dc. my own 5 kw draws up to 10 amps then drops below 1 amp till shut off when the glow plug reignites for a while to burn off the excess fuel in chamber
