Instruction manual sucks. Product is excellent, easy to use. 12.4 amp start up, running is .5. Low fuel consumption.The owners manual needs to be written by an English Speaking Technical Writer, like me. Because it is very difficult to understand.
The packaging was pretty good. The unit still was a little beat. A hammer and a piece of 2x4 fixed the bent housing. The instructions are useless unless you're fluent in poorly translated Mandarin. It is fairly user friendly and if you pull up a YouTube video, you can get through it. No smell outside of startup and it didn't have that hot plastic smell others mentioned. Came with everything needed so it was basically plug and play. Would buy this unit again.
This little heater is amazing!! Thank you for quick response to replacing original unit that was "overly" challenging. Anyone have problems or need help troubleshooting this unit there are TONS of videos on youtube and facebook is loaded with helpful people. Look up Diesel heater pages. There are three or four of forums on fb. Answers in seconds or minutes~~
It's hard to convey how extremely happy I am with this little Chinese diesel heater, absolutely amazing how much heat does little thing puts out and it takes about 10 minutes to heat up my workshop! fast shipping and all around just a great buy!
This thing is awesome. I wanted a portable heater for winter camping and this thing is a game changer! I built it in a toolbox for portability and heat my roof top tent with it. Pure dry heat. No condensation like propane heaters!
