Great Video and the Bluetti AC180 a good combo, thanks for explaining the power draw that's key data for me when camping remotely.
Thanks for the feedback. Glad it was helpful!
I have the AC180. How does it run? I see the max 12v output is 10A on the AC180. Does it create a fault?
Neat unit. And great the power source can operate it that long. Those are heaters are becoming quite popular. But it’s not new technology. Road tractor trucks have used them for years. A buddy of mine has one hooked up in his 1/2 ton.
But a great thing Jason.
Have a great day. Thankfully hurricane Lee is gone.
Yes for sure! It seems like they are getting more popular and the prices are more affordable though? Pretty neat little units to play around with!

I think they are being used in lobster/scallop boats. I think I saw one mounted in the bed of a sxs too with the heater hose piped into the cab. Great video. Very interesting
Yes, when I was researching I saw some “through hull” exhaust fittings. Would be great on a boat. Might be good on SxS too but would want to take care where the exhaust ran… she gets quite hot!
Hey Jason, my brother in law just bought the unit that you can install inside, something similar to what is installed in trucks, he has a travel trailer and he is hoping to get a little longer out of his trailer here in NL. We usually have a nice fall but the evenings are cool so he is hoping the heater will work for him. Hope that Lee missed you guy's, it is warm here we had a little rain and some wind, nothing we can't handle.
There are a lot of power outages in NB. We only lost ours for about 4 hrs here so very lucky. I think NS got hit the hardest! These little heaters are amazing!
Relatively low cost means different things to different people,, ill have to Google it i guess,,, looks great for my shop but would put it outside under a roof and stick heater hose through the hole in the bay door
She’s a honey for the money! I saw a video from the UK where they are heating homes with it… unit is outside in a water proofed metal box and heater hose runs inside. Fuel is cheaper than electricity there right now???
I’ve been using this same unit for 3 weeks in a tent, I leave the unit outdoors between-10 to -15c and so far my Ecoflow Delta 2 starts it every time, I did buy a 120 to 12v 15 amp converter to plug in my 120 outlet on the Delta but the 12v plug works just fine, the unit does not even get close to drawing 15 amps, I can tell you at those temperatures it’s not driving me out of my tent it can get it to 6c wide open
Interesting feedback for sure!
nice review, thanks. Did you consider installing it outside and running the heat duct inside instead of installing inside with exhaust routed out the window?
Hi Yves, I did think about that. I wanted to trial the unit first to see the capabilities. I have seen some videos where they are putting them in metal boxes outside that are somewhat waterproof and then porting the heater duct into the structure. Not sure if I'm going to go there at this point or not... I just got all of that nice siding on my sugar shack! Take care, Jason.
Can you show how the exhaust goes through the window/wall. The heat shield more specifically. Thanks
Hi there. For this video, I mounted the exhaust that comes with the unit inside a 4" metal vent pipe. I just built a flat metal cover for the end of the 4" pipe and pushed the "tail pipe" through it... This seems to work great and keeps the hot exhaust away from any combustibles.
Can you please show your hook up to 12 volts? I see you are using a 120 plug into the power bank what does the other end look like?
Hi Robert, I ordered a regulated transformer from Amazon. ASIN # is B010CVIW7E and brand is Henxlco. You will also need a 110v power cord. Connect your 12v wire and 110v cord into the transformer. Hope this helps.
Just use a 12v batter on a tender
That will certainly work!
Hiya i think exhaust should always be routed down from heater.🤔🎯🇬🇧🍻
Good feedback, thank you!
I have the AC180 and I was wondering if a Vevor heater could be run directly from the 12v outlet? I believe I've read the heater uses 10amp at startup and the 12v plug has a 10amp max. So I'm not sure if it would cause a fault on the AC180...
Hi, on my heater, there is a little yellow tag on the power cord that notes 12 V power supply greater than 15 amps. I didn't want to cause a fault on my Bluetti as the 12V plug notes a 10 amp supply. I chose to purchase a cheap converter from Amazon to convert 110 V AC to 12 V DC and a short cord with conventional plug on the end. This way, I could plug right into an outlet on the Bluetti. ASIN from Amazon is B010CVIWBK for the converter and B07BQ8MRKR for the cord. Hope this helps, Jason.
@@OakMountainAcotts you should have shown this in the video got me thinking! thanks
My heater sometimes gives me an E01 error. I have to start it again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
I suspect it is because of the 10 amp limit of the DC.
Is there something I can doe? (Thicker cables or something)
I haven't seen that error. I'm not an electrician but I didn't plug my unit into the DC side of my power pack. I bought a 110V to 12V converter on amazon and wired it up to plug into the AC side of my power pack which gives me the 15 amp requirement.
@Oak Mountain Acotts, Hello what is the difference between your unit being Horizontal vs Vertical..................is it just the form factor???? Thank you!!!
I don’t really have the answer for that… my assumption is space requirements and a lower and wider unit being available versus a taller and narrower unit?
I did not see any difference but I have a stupid cold, so I dont want to miss out in my foggy head!!! I bought the tall skinny one...Thanks!!!@@OakMountainAcotts
The only difference is that the tall ones have the fuel tank sitting on top of the unit and the wide ones have the fuel tank on the side.
On that controller can you set a specific temperature?
I’m pretty sure you can but I haven’t played around with it much. Should be a few CZcams videos out there on that feature though.
hi i just bought the same unit . how for the name of god did you pair the remote , owner manual isnt clear enough and i wonder how to use the app . can you make a folow up video how to control the unit , i think people would love that , thanks !
Hi, my remote worked right out of the box! In the short term, I would check out some other videos, hopefully there is one on there covering the electronic setup. I’ll check out the manual to see if I can figure it out as well.
@@OakMountainAcotts thats ok i figured out today , when in off position press and hold right arrow button and it Rte appear on screen , i removed the battery and replace it in , and press any button on the remote and it worked , thanks for the answer !
How would someone run one of these straight off the bluetti (in a camper)? The 12v outlet is only 10A
I bought a 15 amp converter and a 6’ 110v cord to plug it in to the BLUETTI.
Awesome. Thx!!
Hi, which port is exhaust on the Vevor Cy 24 ?
On my unit it is closest to the control panel end. Start it up for a couple minutes and you will feel the heat from the exhaust port.
Can you not just plug the diesel heater into the 12v DC lighter socket?
It depends on the amperage of your lighter socket. The heater needs 15 amps I believe… My power pack has a 10 amp lighter socket but I didn’t try it…. The heater pulls about 250 watts when it first starts to warm the combustion chamber. Once it warms up, it uses about 50 watts.
I have exact same unit, but can't yet figure out how to change to English, and Fahrenheit
Not sure I'll be able to help you out there... will the company respond to an e-mail? Sorry!
@@OakMountainAcotts no problem, I was able to find solution. All set now
Hi, i buy the same. I want to work max 17-18C but he works 25-30 C . How i can do to max work temperature is 17-18C
Sorry for my english . Please help me.
My unit has control settings on it from 1 to 10. 10 is the highest setting and 1 is the lowest setting. Can you find that setting and turn it down?
Yes this is a MANUAL not Auto right?
Correct
Exhaust: per manufacture.
Horizontal or below: your example is too high. Condensation will cause liquid in exhaust and create potential, Carbon, Monoxide, Backup....
Noted, I’ll make that correction in my setup. Thanks!
Could you not run the heater right off the Bluetti??? without the converter.
The 12v power supply on the Bluetti is rated for 10 amps. The heater recommends 15 amps minimum… I didn’t want to risk it!
I am just trying to figure out how to avoid using a battery. What is the converter that you used. It seems to be working fine.@@OakMountainAcotts
B0B2JPDB9Z - Try this ASIN from Amazon. Should be a converter that would work?
I purchased a 6’ power cord as well…
Thanks@@OakMountainAcotts
i would paint the exhaust with black stove paint so that it radiates the heat to the room so you get less waste
Great idea! Thanks for watching, Jason.
Not worth the effort.
@@donraptor6156 you'd be surprised the difference it makes
Too bad it has to have a clicking noise. Bit annoying.
You get used to it!
They have solutions for that posted on CZcams, not sure if it was a new pump or a silencer method. I'd also recommend having the exhaust point down so condensation doesn't build up.
That is beyond inefficient. Honda eu 2200 and a 2000 watt electrical heater is better.
Might be the case but remember this heater costs less than $200 compared to the cost of the electric heater and the Honda!
