@@OutbackEquipmentwow that’s a great price I bought the original yellow propane bottle heater can’t remember the name but it was the worst $500.00 dollars I’ve ever spent on any camping product. The battery to run the fan kept going flat after 40 minutes from full charge which rendered it useless because it couldn’t be charged while using it. I should have known never to buy the first prototype of anything but a lessen well learnt. I still have it somewhere in the shed it’s only probably good for a boat anchor now, I haven’t thrown it out because it bothers me that I payed so much for it and after testing it , it never left the house for a camping trip 😂 I’m really impressed you are using lithium in your product and that the run time is up to 9 hours can it be charged while using? Cheers 🍻
@@matt08sydney This Aeroheat isn't any better, it doesn't heat, they say it does but after testing in controlled shed space it didn't get more that 5 degrees above ambient temp. Very poor response from the supplier Advernture Operations, they say it should and I say it doesn't. It probably would make a better boat anchor.
Hi, Firstly the Carbon Monoxide output is not measured however it does have a safety sensor that will shut unit down if it ever reaches/senses a dangerous level, however this would only ever really occur if heater was used inside a tent or room or car for example. Secondly the unit cannot be modified to add a thermostat without voiding warranty so we can't recommend doing it.
@@OutbackEquipment Even though its outside the tent, I'm still concerned about the carbon monoxide. For instance generators are kept at a good distance from the tent for this same reason.
It looks good but after buying one I can confirm its incredibly bad. I can have my arm right down the ducting and leave it there as it's only luke warm air, won't warm a small area at all. Tried in Victoria highlands. Don't buy one!
Yes I can confirm your findings, I measured 32 degrees at the surface of the outlet, per Adventure Operations the 'Hottest Spot' that could reach a maximum of 60 degrees! Only if you set the whole thing on fire I reckon.
Hi Crypto Yummy, as it has a 12v dc cigarette socket it will run from a 12v source, but in our experience you shouldn't need to run it all night to feel comfortable!
Hi Keith, Unfortunately as this heater has a gas regulator built into it, this item cannot be used with the regulated bayonet gas source found on Caravans. You can either use the 468g gas cylinder or a gas hose which will connect directly to a gas cylinder.
Yes, what’s the point of only 4.5 hours? E.g. turn it on when it gets cold at 6pm and it’s finished & empty of charge by the time you go to sleep at 10.30pm.
Interesting bit of kit! Good to see a bigger brand getting onboard with these
Excellent detailed video and you have a cool name 😉
That looks really awesome and would be great with winter on its way now. What’s the RRP please. Thanks for a great review 👍👍🤠

@@taztheambo Thanks,Yeah you can’t beat a diesel heater all round better to invest in one of those
This guy x100
hey mate ive been looking at heating a small 13ft van i know you talked about tents but would this unit be any good for a 13ft hybrid van cheers
I heat my minivan with a Zodi Hot Vent Tent heater. If you search for Zodi Hot Vent tent heater on youtube, you might find some ideas.
Two questions. 1) This is running just outside of a tent. What is the carbon monoxide output? 2) Is there a way to use a thermostat with this? Thanks!

Pipe Straight into my sleeping bag on a cold night lol
Chinese diesel heater leaves “this guy”for dead at a quarter of the price to buy and run.
what a wierd to say. How's your product now 10month later?
@@byronbandit605 No issues, will be using it this winter.
I hear you. Mine is 3 years old. Works everytime. Diesel, very cheap to run. Remote control does the job. No need for blue tooth.
Can you charge the heater and use it at the same time?
Hello Ronald, yes the heater should be both charging and useable when you plug it in.
It looks good but after buying one I can confirm its incredibly bad. I can have my arm right down the ducting and leave it there as it's only luke warm air, won't warm a small area at all. Tried in Victoria highlands. Don't buy one!

Can it run all night with external battery pack?
Hi Crypto Yummy, as it has a 12v dc cigarette socket it will run from a 12v source, but in our experience you shouldn't need to run it all night to feel comfortable!
Hi , can you get a adapter plate for connecting to a caravan?
Hi Keith, Unfortunately as this heater has a gas regulator built into it, this item cannot be used with the regulated bayonet gas source found on Caravans. You can either use the 468g gas cylinder or a gas hose which will connect directly to a gas cylinder.
Does the fan still run while the 12v charge chord is connected?
Yes!
@@OutbackEquipment so it can run all night if charging?
@@AstroBananna Yes it can (I've recently just bought one of these)
How many times does this guy say “this guy” Ffs.
Ha-ha this guy 💁
4.5 hours. Yuck.

Absolute rubbish. Stay clear. Air is barely warm. Don’t waste your money
Confirm that.
