First 3 Months With a DIESEL HEATER
Our experience with a diesel heater in our camper van

After a lifetime of travel and car camping, and about 10 years of lifestyle travel camping in all manner of vehicles, I was shocked when we installed a diesel heater in the van.

As a bonus, this cheap Chinese diesel heater cost less than $100.

But was it worth it? Does this cheap diesel heater work well enough to be worth even $100 and the effort to install it?

3 Month Review

We purchased and installed a Vevor 8kw diesel heater in our DIY camper van (Ford E-350 conversion) about three. months ago.

The installation was not too bad – despite a few mistakes, a less-than-helpful manual, and a few questionable parts.

Now that we’ve been using this diesel heater for about three months, I decided to record an updated review video sharing our experiences with this heater so far.

What has our experience been? Would we recommend a diesel heater for van or RV? Would we buy a cheap diesel heater again? All of this and more is covered in our three-month review video.

Is a Diesel Heater Really Worth It for Van Life?
