Love the diesel heater in our California. Sounds like a quiet little jet engine when it first starts. I fitted the solar camper solutions solar panels the other day and was chuffed with myself, but this is next level.

Hi Sean another fantastic video you have certainly been busy, I bumped in to you and your lovely wife liz today at campers and coffee ,just checking in on little Harvey. I felt so bad after popping over to see you both when poor Harvey took a tumble .fingers crossed he's still full of beans and doing o.k ♥️
@ABusAndBeyond
@ABusAndBeyond Год назад
Lovely to meet you today Shane! Harvey is all good thanks for asking. As with most toddlers they practically bounce. Hope you had a good time at C&C!

So glad to hear that Sean my heart hit the floor when saw him tumble out of the van .so glad the little fella is made of sturdy stuff . Also it was wonderful to meet the latest addition to you family, congratulations to both yourself and Liz .looking forward to seeing your next video. Keep up the fantastic work you both do on the channel.

It seems so long since the last vid. I'm really pleased all is well. Van is massive and looks awesome. Must be a drain financially, and time wise. Don't overdo it! Keep goin' it will be all worth it!😎

I’ve suspended my diesel heater pump from its pipes with zip ties, much quieter. Planning to install a 2nd smaller (2kW) heater upfront in the cab to serve the cab but also as redundancy - don’t want to abandon a trip because we lost the heating. I often wonder if it matters when cables are much fatter than the post they terminate at. For example your red cable under bonnet connection.

Exhaust needs an extension so it exists at the side of the van and not underneath.
@ABusAndBeyond
@ABusAndBeyond Год назад
Factory VW California diesel heater exhausts under the van and the engine exhaust stops under the van so I believe it is fine where it is.
@thinkingoutofthebox.9421
@thinkingoutofthebox.9421 Год назад
Vans exhaust is mainly used when van is moving so fumes are blown away, but diesel heater is used at night when van is stationary, your choice.
@ABusAndBeyond
@ABusAndBeyond Год назад
True. I think the fact that the California diesel heater exhausts under the van should mean it’s fine but we will have a carbon monoxide alarm just in case

Sean, I've watched this video several times now. One big question if you don't mind? How the hell do you know what to do? All the wiring etc. You have so much on your plate at the moment. Don't overdo things. you are definately driven, but is this less expensive overall than buying a conversion companies vehicle, ie Westfalia Sven Hedin or similar? Don't forget how valuable your professional time is! Can't wait to see the completed artpiece!😎

Very often I would say I don’t know what I’m doing 😂 I do hours and hours of research for each step. RU-vid is invaluable for this kind of thing. There’s hundreds of videos for the smallest of things and I take what I feel is the best advice and most logical approach from the videos I watch. Regarding the price, that’s a very good question. It is probably no cheaper than going in and buying a Westfalia, however we couldn’t find the exact layout we wanted and we didn’t really want a motorhome. We don’t have £80-90k to drop on a new large camper van but we can afford to buy the van and tackle jobs as and when we have some cash. There’s no denying that we have benefitted from discounts in return for videos too so that certainly helps. One big expense is the range of tools that I have bought to make my life easier. Thank you so much for watching, it really helps keep the motivation going.

when i fitted a chinese heater there was a menu option to prime the fuel pump before first use .. and as others have said , put some protection on the fuel pipe

@darrenj3267 Год назад
you might want to think about putting some trunking or a pit of rubber pipe over your diesel heater fuel pick up pipe where it passes through the hole in the chassis otherwise it could wear through over time

Looks a like you have decent size MultiPlus going in.. Assume you have a large lithium battery to pair with it, if so do your self a favour and fit at least another DCDC 30 charger.. The Multiplus 3000 puts in about 120amps when on hookup.. The DCDC 30 will put in 30 amps if cooled. It just takes too long to charge a large lithium battery, get a 2nd or 3rd to double up. You also need an ignition live feed to turn them on.
@ABusAndBeyond
@ABusAndBeyond Год назад
It’s an EasyPlus so it’s 1600VA. I’ll see how we get on with the single DC to DC for now but I can easily add another if we need it. We will have a constant charge from solar alongside and we aren’t big off grid power users really. Thank you very much for watching

Could you have run the dc to dc cable through the floor /kingspan?
@ABusAndBeyond
@ABusAndBeyond Год назад
Could do but then you run the risk of hitting it when screw the floor down or other items. It was really straight forward running it under the van
@tospicy4ya
@tospicy4ya Год назад
Oh yeah I get . What’s the watts for on the heater , if it runs on diesel ⛽️ is it the display?

Air intake in the same zone as your exhaust? Oooo?😮 air intake better inside well away from underside. Wind will not help/ safety first??? 🙏🙏
@ABusAndBeyond
@ABusAndBeyond Год назад
It’s the air intake for the combustion chamber. It has to be under the van. The air that warmed up is brought in from inside the van. They are separate parts
