Thanks! This is the best walk through I’ve seen so far on these heaters.

Thank you for taking the time to show these details, I know the 'later' controls, same as you are using, have the ability to adjust 'mixture' for running at altitude, if you do a further video on this setup please add the method if possible.

Hi Sam I'd just like to thank you for the very clear and concise video, this helped me no end in completing my set up. Im planning on running a 80/20 kerosine diesel mix to help reduce internal carbon build up. So far so good, great little heaters for the price 👍 Cheers Steve

Just got a red one. Heater has to be off press down arrow and settings button together and the display will show H OFF then press up arrow to turn the pump on. Display will show H ON.To stop the pump press down arrow

I just installed this in my garage today. Runs great, lots of hidden features I will have to scour the internet for. The aluminum body is really robust and from a casting. Not stamped aluminum.

I have the same set and can't pair them. My remote shows only please wait and when I press power and OK it shows "please wait. for pairing" and that's it. Any ideas?

IV'E WATCH A LOT OF VIDEO'S AND YOURS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT SHOWS HOW TO PAIR THE REMOTE WITH THE SCREEN CLEARLY , I WAS READY TO ORDER A NEW SYSTEM WHEN I RUN INTO YOUR VIDEO. YOU MADE IT SO SIMPLE , I THOUGHT MIY REMOTE WAS BROKE , I TRIED EVERYTHING , IF YOU NEW HOW GRATEFULL I AM FOR YOUR TEACHING , GETTING OUT OF A TOP BUNK BED TO TURN THE HEATER DOWN IS NOT FUN AT MY AGE , THE REMOTE MAKES IT SO EASY TO KEEP THE TEMPERATURE REGULATED. THANK YO SO MUCH.

thanks really helped out. Have the same unit and needed all the information you provided

Thanks for the walkthrough. For the hot exhaust heat, I was thinking it would be perfect to use it in some custom water heater setup. Would be a shame to hear the environment.

hello, what is the reference of the red remote control ?

I have the blue controller with red remote, I am using a Hulk marine tank which has the fuel line coming from the top of the tank, where the supplied 5ltr came from the bottom. I am following your instructions as I need to prime it, but I can't get the controller to prime. Im doing what u say in the video, but my controller doesn't bring up the H.

Very good demo

I tried to pair the remote as you showed but the HFA does not appear. Any clues?

I picked one of these up a month ago but haven't received it yet in the mail I had an idea about what to do with the exhaust you can make a heat exchanger slash hot water tank to heat up hot water or you can make a old used radiator like that of a Datsun that is all copper and run it through where the coolant ran previously hook up a small DC fan and have a hell of a lot more heat and make the more efficient

I too want to experiment with what can be done with all that exhaust heat... however, there's some concern that if you draw too much heat away from the exhaust, and/or create too much backpressure, it will result in excessive sooting and clogging up. Might not happen if running on Kerosene though... we need to experiment!

Hi Sam, great video. I've got the same unit/control/remote. I've paired the remote but struggling to fathom out how to change temp on both the unit and the remote. There's manual, set oil flow and temp on the left side of the lcd screen, when I press OK it alters from temp to oil flow etc. But doesn't allow me to alter temp. I'm not technically minded and struggle with gadgets, so not sure what I'm doing wrong. Also the hertz can be adjusted via the ok/up and down but when you do the same for temp it changes screen directly back to hertz again. Quite confused.com

Hi Sam, Great video mate. I noticed someone else has this problem, how do you change from automatic to manual mode please?

I have ordered a similar unit as my 110 does not have a heater (ex Oman army trucks were delivered without heaters). I was planning to install the heater under the seat in the battery box with one duct under the car to the bulkhead entry to the dash and the other duct through the battery box into the cabin at low level. Do you think this is a good plan? Do you think 5kW is enough heat for when the truck goes back with me to the Cheshire Countryside? Thank you for sharing your expertise with us!

@SamsMotors

5 жыл бұрын

I like the idea of feeding into the original heater inlet - means you will have control of hot air onto your feet or onto the windscreen (assuming the dash has the correct controls and ducts etc)... Quite a long run of ducting to get it there from the seatbox though... it might be worth insulating the duct with some pipe lagging or exhaust wrap or similar, as you'll probably lose quite a bit of heat, especially when on the move and you have lots of cold air rushing past it. 5kW should certainly be enough power - it'll definitely be hotter than a standard Defender heater anyway.

That's actually the down button on the right. But pressing the settings and left arrow does nothing, but switches mode on the old controller

Does this model have a thermostat where you can set the temperature and the heater will seek this temperature by running faster when it is colder and then slowing down and idling as the temperature is reached? All I can see is that when you change the temperature, it changes only the fuel pulse cycles to feed more fuel or less fuel.

Hi Gillian, thanks for the comment :) Hopefully you have managed to pair it by now, but you should be able to change to English by holding the OK button on the remote for ~5 seconds. Unfortunately I have seen on the Facebook group that some people have been unable to change their remote language - so I presume that some have been manufactured with Chinese as the only language. If that's the case with yours I suggest you contact your eBay seller and ask for a replacement English remote or a suitable refund.

Hi Alan, You can run the heater off either your main or leisure battery. If using your main one, you’ll want to make sure you keep an eye on the voltage level so you don’t drain it. Yes you can run the heater with the boat running or stopped. If you cut power to the heater completely (LCD off) you will need to set the clock again, but all other settings (fuelling, remote pairing etc) seem persistent.
