    I am relatively new to your channel and love it. Firstly, I was born and raised in Stranraer( now live in Wales last 22 years I am 58) My first job was in Portpatrick and the big hotel that looks over the Port ( The Portpatrick Hotel) Next, we have travelled from West Wales the last 2 years in August to Balloch and like the Loch Lomond Shores and the Sweeney Cruises. It seems we have so much in common.

    A great tip Dan is to run it on kerosene and will run cleaner and not clog up the inside of the unit. Same price as red diesel too. The Chinese heaters are awesome I’ve fitted a few to my campers and they have been 100% faultless. Got a trauma 6d in my motorhome now so no worries about lpg. 👍🏼👍🏼

  • @paulrobinson8263
    @paulrobinson8263 2 года назад +1

    Hi Dan I’m always being asked how much diesel these heaters use and mine being direct from the tank i can’t measure, just wondered if you could do some sort of pen scribe on your visible tank to try and see how much diesel they actually use, I’m led to believe very little but it would be good to know and will give you something to do 😂😂😂😂

    • @UrbanVanlife
      @UrbanVanlife 2 года назад +1

      Average use 1 to 1.5 L a day heavy use . As in full heat and run for a long time 2L a day . That’s what I would say mate . After use in one in our t4 for years that’s what we figured it used
