I will receive the brief case unit tomorrow. Glad to hear it is quieter. I hear the pump noise can keep you up at night. I intend to use it in class C and unheated garage when working there and maybe the SUV. Your video is excellent.

@Mumfy64 7 месяцев назад

The case does help with the noise by also the setting is also a factor. The higher you set it the more often you’ll hear the fuel pump ticking.

@Den-ml7zg 6 месяцев назад

Its way quieter than my two vevors. I have two running most cold nights and the Vevors pump drowns out the fcallory.

Wall mart has the Hcalory diesel heaters on sale today 3/10/23, for 89.99 for the black one and the white one, I bought both, the black one is nicely made I disassembled it and it has a heat-resistant outer shell made of durable plastic the aluminum was poured and was quality built, the inner burner tube was made of stainless steel very nice, lots of heat and runs nicely. the white one has an aluminum outer shell that is made perfectly the heater is 95% the same the only difference is the burner tube is steel not stainless and works the same with a lot of heat.

@Ross-re2up 10 месяцев назад

One big oops in their design is running the exhaust straight up. you will get an error as soon as moisture collects in that pipe. They are design to flow downhill and actually have a moisture outlet on the muffler....

@Mumfy64 10 месяцев назад

I have looked into this as well and I think you can just put the muffler in the exhaust vent. Or you can bend the tube to face a downward angle when out at the camp.

@user-vx7uv5jm2n 11 месяцев назад

have you tried running the all in one while out in the snow? Any issues with waterproofing? Would be concerned the controller electrical connections would be at risk of water ingress.

Hi how did you get the exhaust side fitted the pipe I have is the same bore as the exhaust and won't fit ?

@roddick1185 8 месяцев назад

I just get it and planning to put it on my refrigerator in the garage and make a hole in the wall 8"x8" filled with metal tin and the exhaust pipe go through it.Do you think that pipe and muffler can get rusty after a time.I am planning to keep that permanently.

@davidcarrico3385 10 месяцев назад

Great video. Question on the black briefcase version, when attaching the exhaust pipe, it looks like you have the exterior pipe going ‘into’ the case pipe, and at the muffler side, it looks like you have the exterior pipe going over the muffler inlet. Is that accurate? And if so, how did you know that’s the way it should be done? I’m not the handiest of guys so the lack of instructions is throwing me off 🙂. Thx

@Mumfy64 10 месяцев назад

The ends of the exhaust hose need to be bent a little in order to fit the case exhaust and the muffler. There isn't a specific end that goes in either.

@lezlisage5730 9 месяцев назад

I get my heater Wednesday! Super excited. Your video was helpful because I’m a girl camper and new to diesel heaters. What is the max length you’d recommend the heat output hose? I have a roof top tent I will be feeding the heat into.

@Mumfy64 9 месяцев назад

I suggest getting an 8’ - 10’ hose.

@PainterD54 5 месяцев назад

If you run your exhaust hose as long as possible inside before it goes outside, you will capture more heat off the unit. Make sure the exhaust is always directed downhill so the condesation can drain our, or drill a small hole in the low spot.

@MrTyroneweaver 7 месяцев назад

setting up you diesel out let line up off the bottom allows sentiment to be on the floor rather than being picked up.

@tripleminthehouse Год назад

2 questions. Do you have a link to the knock-off yellow RotoPax? Second...do you think the heater hose is too close to the exhaust? I've ordered some wrap just in case. Great Vid...gave me the confidence to put mine together. Thx.

@Mumfy64 Год назад

2 Answers: 1. Link to the knock-off rotopax; amzn.to/3lET2V1 2. No, the heater hose is not close enough to the exhaust hose to cause any issues. Glad to hear that the video helped.

@benjimanlee 3 месяца назад

Great video…..I’ve just got one of these and I’m not entirely sure I would want my exhaust to be coming out next to my air intake…..is it ok to that?

@Mumfy64 3 месяца назад

Which version are you referring to? On the Briefcase style the exhaust is on the same side that the hot air is pushed out of the unit. On the Tower unit, I can see the concern. The exhaust tube can be bent/moved to any position so that the fumes won't be next to the cold air intake.

Do you use that same jackery for the suitcase heater while camping and if so, does it last at least all night? I have the same jackery and was wondering if I will need to upgrade. Thanks!

@Mumfy64 11 месяцев назад

I do have the same one I did the test run on, but I also have a 1000w Jackery as well for heavy draw items. If you were to keep this on a low setting you should be able to keep the 300w with the unit. But to be safe I suggest a 500w.

@richardcruz6111 6 месяцев назад

Love the video, however I have a question about the power. You hooked it up to a jacket 300, how long will the power last before you need to recharge? I'm asking because I want to buy one to setup in a van? 2 things will happen, I'll either run out of fuel or run out of power thru out the night? Can you give me some insight on this? And also what power station can I go with to insure proper funtion.

@Mumfy64 6 месяцев назад

If you are planning on a van build, I would look at doing more of an onboard setup. route the exhaust to the outside of the vehicle and setup an aux battery system. But if you plan on using a portable battery, look at the Jackery 1000. That should give you enough battery for a few days.

@MichaelGuzman247 5 месяцев назад

Great Video! QQ-Does it need a persistent dc connection to run?

@Mumfy64 5 месяцев назад

The unit will need constant power to run.

@brandoneasterday4658 6 месяцев назад

@HoldYourSeahorses 7 месяцев назад

Are you able to run the hcalory from strartup on the dc output? from what I've researched it pulls around 13 amps at the beginning and the Jackery is rated at 10 amps.

@Mumfy64 7 месяцев назад

Yes I been able to run it on the DC outlet from my Jackery 300 & 1000 from start up with no issues.

@royalwapiti 4 месяца назад

Could you drill fuel hole in tank at the top and push tube onto the bolt (with hole in it) run tube to bottom.

@Mumfy64 3 месяца назад

With the parts that are provided, you cannot run the tube that way. You can look at getting a stainless fuel line kit and run it that way.

@aaronmorrison9451 7 месяцев назад

what insulated pipe should be used to protect inside insulation/tongue and groove? thx

@Mumfy64 7 месяцев назад

If you are asking about the tube that you run to your tent then you can order a 3” insulated dryer vent tube off amazon. 12-16’ should be good.

@HoldYourSeahorses 7 месяцев назад

When using this on the exterior of the tent, how will you be able to use the thermostat if it is on the unit outside?

@Mumfy64 7 месяцев назад

This unit has Bluetooth, so I can adjust from my phone.

@InGratitudeIam 10 месяцев назад

What is the advantage of running the exhaust next to (and near) the air intake?

@Rob81818 6 месяцев назад

I purchased this a week ago. However I'm having trouble with leaking when I installed the nozzle into the tank. At first I thought it wasn't tight enough, but it still leaks very slowly after tightening where the line is wet with diesel. Does yours leak by any chance?

I am not having a leaking issue, but be sure to double check your O-rings to make sure they are set correctly.

The ring will not connect to the end of the Spade connectors. To set it up the way I have it, you will need to cut the rings off and use a spade connection on both the DC plug and the power cable. These are the spade connections i use. amzn.to/3vLteeN

Is there a difference in heat output between the 2 diesel heaters the toolbox version is a 5kw and other is 8Kw what’s the fuel consumption like on these

@Mumfy64 Год назад

I haven't noticed a difference in heat output between the two. I still need to run a full night test on these to see how the fuel consumption is. I can say that depending on how high it is run will affect how fast the fuel is consumed.

@Mumfy64 Год назад

I ended up pinching the exhaust end a little to make it smaller so that the muffler could fit, same for the end that goes in the box. It does take a bit to get the hose clamp on as well for the air. I didn't put one on the exhaust side.
