Price crash diesels heaters

Agree with all of that and matches my thoughts from the use of the D1LC i have in the 110. The pump for that is mounted on the chassis and it ticks away - can be heard when stationary but not when driving. I might go for one as a cheap solution to the non - working gas/electric Truma heater in the caravan. Think that's only 2.5-3kW actually so a 5kW air heater would be an upgrade thinking about it. The rest of the space removing the Truma would leave can be converted to a cupboard!

Buy one that claims to be 8kw. They are only 4kw. The 5kw ones are actually 2 to 3kw. But not always

You underestimate the average person. You'd think they'd learn....

Fear and pain are excellent teachers...

Ahh, yes, but one must remember that 50% of the population is/are below the average. Idiots are securely fixed within the lower half of that lower half….

And an old saying that goes something like ‘you can't educate pork’.

Has anyone figured out how to incorparate a thermostart into these.

I want to use one in a poly tunnel as frost protection, but realy want it to sort itself out, so coming on at, say 2c, and off again once its up to temp.

They come with a thermostat. Whether they kick in that low i don't know.

Thats good news.

None of the descriptions mention a thermostat. Only controlling the output temp.

You legend.

Thats all rather clever. The only negative being, to identify if your heater is compatible, you actually need to have it first!

 

[qwakers]

if your "ecu" is not compatible you can change it cheaply.

Chances are your heater won't have an Afterburner compatible ECU, but they are cheap and easy enough to swap.

Usually need to change both the motherboard in the heater boy and the controller. I’ve no idea if the wiring harness is the same on recent variants.
