Loads using them, it’s just a cheap Chinese copy of a webasto or eiberspach, at a fraction of a the cost, if its not your only heat source and you are not dependant on it I think they are excellent value for money Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greyman 28,236 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Makes a lot of sense when you can buy 2 and still have a grand left over the cost of a real one, don’t know what your mate is looking to spend but if I can’t get the old kabola boiler going that’s already on board I have been looking at the hurricane diesel heater, does rads hot water and has thermostatic temperature control in each room, looks pretty straight forward to fit but costs nearly 3k which is ok for a full time live aboard but a bit much for a holiday boat Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gaz_Lurcherlad 382 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 If you go to scrap yard and get a night heater out of an old wagon as long as you can get a live feed and fuel supply does same job got one in shed and blow a lot more air out than them 24v feed don’t go blowing your selves up you will need and inverter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seabass1 2 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Yes, the cheap diesel heaters are really good. I’ve got one fitted in the camper, it’s plumbed into the diesel tank. Also an all in one type for the workshop, £96 off eBay. I run that on central heating oil, really cheap to run at 12p litre at the moment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
