I have just completed the installation of this unit. It ca...me will all the parts and fittings, although I had to make some custom brackets for exhaust and air intake due to my particular installation. I have run it twice and it does all the things that it should. The true test will be how it stacks up over its lifetime against other more ( much) expensive brands but at that price I can afford to buy many more ( if they fail) before I am on par with flagship units from competitors. The instructions were comprehensive but with many mismatches due to translations and makes for an interesting read and sometimes humorous one. You can easily work it out though. All in all I am very satisfied with the unit.

Almost no instructions for installation. Mounting p...late gets very hot. Exhaust pipe needs slots cut to clamp onto unit properly. Control unit cable had to b extended, far to short. Outlet vent gets very hot & is flimsy. Uses 12A on start up & cool down, very sensitive to minimal voltage drop & shuts down, it almost needs own battery to counter normal van pwr use. Works a treat wih wireless remote & pumps out the heat, quiet on low heat settings. Clear fitting instructions cant b that hard to put together. Happily pay another $200 for insulated exhaust system & instructions.

Fast postage received well packaged. Fairl...y simple to install with use of YouTube videos. Instructions that come with it aren’t the best. Ran it overnight with pretty good diesel consumption. Is quite noisy upon start up but once it’s warmed up and running smoothly it quietens down a lot. Fuel pump ticking sound is noticeable again on start up but becomes less noticeable after a short while. Free camping would be fine but if used in a caravan park close to other people you may be at risk of annoying others. Overall I still rate this product highly and have no regrets purchasing. Can not wait post COVID to get out camping and staying warm.

I found it was easy to fit and all parts were there.... The only thing that would make using this unit easier would be to have the start up procedures explained in a language that could be understood. I am using trial and error to turn on the heater. A longer exhaust tube may be an advantage

The top rated critical review is wrong on many levels. Using the c...orrect gauge wire to power it and a quality battery in good order the current draw is only 8.5 amps. The fasteners and fittings are all of suitable quality. The cables are plenty long enough. Do NOT cut slits in the exhaust pipe!!! (As mentioned in that review). Doing that will cause exhaust leaks. The pipe is maliable enough to conform to the manifold using the supplied wire type clamp. Mounted correctly the tick of the fuel pump is un-noticeable. Providing you have proper electrical understanding, you plan the installation thoroughly and have the manual dexterity to undertake such mechanical tasks you will, like me be very happy this heater. Also the instructions are detailed and easy to understand
