Customer Reviews for VEVOR Diesel Air Heater 8KW, All in One 12V Truck Heater, Parking Heater with Black LCD, Remote Control, Fast Heating Diesel Heater for RV Truck, Boat, Bus, Car Trailer, Motorhomes

To preface this review I must say I have used almost exclusively Vevor heaters and one Maxspeedingrods brand CDH in my past 3 years of vehicle dwelling and I have installed 4 different heaters in 3 separate rigs (1 replacement due to operator error by myself during the initial learning process) and this particular heater is my most recent install and is in my wooden foam insulated truck camper made by David Mason from Endgame Campers check him out on YouTube, such a badass. Instructions are a major upgrade from previous units for those that might be first timers. I fitted this unit into a space that I had already had a heater installed in and had functioned well enough for months but it failed to run every time I tried to start it. Sometimes would start the second try, sometimes it wouldn't start after the 50th try. I had tested the voltage output, fuel pump, checked air intake, tested glow plug, checked for fuel leaks and blockages, removed and disassembled entire Maxspeedingrods brand heater and could find nothing visibly or functionally wrong with it, not dirty, no broken gaskets, the wiring was all continuous but could not get heater to run properly. After replacing said heater with this particular heater, the new one fired up first try and has not hiccupped once on startup or during regular operation in over a month of every day usage, regularly overnight, sometimes up to 48+ hours straight during major snowstorms. The Bluetooth App works well with my android phone! Being able to turn on and off the heater with my phone is a fun feature that I enjoy but isn't all that much more convenient than the remotes have ever been. The remote that comes with this heater is a little bigger than the prior ones but is of sturdy build quality and is conveniently preprogrammed to work with the controller. The coolest thing about the app is that I am able to see what seems to be very accurate data regarding the combustion temp, room temp, current elevation, and more without sc

I'm using this little heater to keep my greenhouse warm at night. So far, it is fantastic. Very efficient and sips diesel; it's not a gulper. I've been 'testing' on very cold nights to see if it can keep the greenhouse frost proof later on when I have delicate peppers, etc. in there. Yes it can. My cattle panel hoop house is 12 X 25 feet. I only want it to be frost proof - not a tropical heat. I did purchase a voltage converter so I plug mine into the outlets instead of battery. To my pleasant surprise, the exhaust pipe fits perfectly over a 3/4 conduit pipe! (which measures 1-inch on the outside). So, I just ran about 10 feet of conduit from the flex heater exhaust out through a little one inch hole in the side. This is capturing virtually all the heat. The pipe at the end is just warm to the touch. I do wish it had the ability to totally shut itself down when temp is up to setting, but instead it 'idles' along. The 'tick' of the pump is allowable in my application. It might be annoying in a camper, etc. So, ALL thumbs up from me!

Got barrage of ads for this little beast on TicTok (like how did they know that I ran out of fire wood?). I wasn’t too sure about it but for such a reasonable price, I thought I would give it a go. Bought through Amazon because I wanted to ensure it would be returnable. I installed it in a 15x15 4-season porch which I use as an office in New England. Not much insulation so I needed something that would keep up with the heat loss without costing a mint. So far, so good. I am happy with it. I used an old PC power supply to give it the AC->DC (check YouTube for vids on how). I was able to drill holes in the floor to fit in-take and exhaust lines out with a hole saw and a drill. I got the 5kw and run it at max and it keeps me comfortable. I wish that I had gotten the 8kw just to have some extra capacity. So far I am using about a gallon of diesel a day. I put in a cheap CO meter just in case. It hasn’t been a problem. There was a little fuel smell at the beginning but it went away after a couple of days. The blower is aggressive but it is a pleasant rushing sound and does not impact video calls made from 5’ away. Not bad. Remote starter works well. I didn’t think I wanted one but it is nice to fire this thing up when I wake up and it is toasty by the time I am ready to work. Vevor has impressed me.

just installed this heater in my big truck so far so good no more idling

I installed one in my side box of the semi. It works very well.

Amazing little heaters that are a lifesaver! Cheap, easy to use, and dependable! We use them daily. Short and Sweet, BUY ONE, OR TWO!!

I absolutely love this thing. I mounted it in my new toy hauler and it works perfectly. It sips fuel and easily heats my 32ft long camper easily. I bought a second one that I don’t have a purpose for other than I just wanted one for the day I come up with a need for it. The fuel pump is loud on all brands of these, so be sure to mount it in an insulated box if you don’t want to hear it tick.

I bought this to preheat my aircraft engine, i have no AC power, so this works great off a small battery. The price of these seems a little too cheap so hopefully it lasts. The only thing i don't like is the handle isn't very comfortable for carrying it, it's hollow on the underside. An option with the exhaust and intake built into the casing would also be nice for what I'm using it for so i didn't have to custom attach those tubes to the side, it looks a bit goofy but for the price you expect to much. i also am running it on 1K kerosene to try and keep it clean and trouble free, it hardly uses any fuel anyway.

Does a good job taking the chill out of the air, with no diesel smell. The fuel consumption is as advertised. It does need a better user manual, but online videos do make it clear on installation and operation.

Got for my husband to work in the garage. Works fantastic
