An HONEST review of the WIPPRO Diesel Heater

- This is my no-holds-barred review of the WIPPRO diesel heater. Granted, it's not a $600 heater, so I didn't expect $600 quality. So what do you get for a $229 heater? Will it work in extreme temperatures? How loud is it? We answer all that and more!

Thanks for taking one for the team! I just bought this for $229 minus a $40 coupon on amazon. Now it is $189 same deal no coupon. Anyway the capacity it 8L according to the label on the case. Initially you stated 6L, but understand it was cold :-) I added some closed cell sound insulation (AggSound 157mm) on the metal case and at the base of the fuel pump, as it was banging on the metal bottom. I also covered the fuel line with a fire sleeve(fiberglass / silicone) as it was a wee bit too close to the exhaust for my liking. If you keep the UP button (Arrow) pressed for 3 seconds it changes to Fahrenheit.
I just dsid most of all that on the new Vevor heater. This one one wasn't too bad in comparison.

60 in the house You don't need heat
@@FreeWeedBag We need heat in the house because we live in Colorado and it is winter time. It's currently 34° outside. I would say we need heat.
This unit is a 6 LITER CAPACITY. THEY LIED. I have 2 of them and I can tell you it CANNOT be take 8 liters or 2 gallons.
I bought this unit and it worked for a few days then started getting E08 & E10 so bought a cheap cdh with bluetooth and bigger fuel tank and that has been working for weeks now. Maybe I'll get around to get it working again but happier with the new setup.
Cold-camped with this heater this weekend myself. You definitely need to run a 4” tube! I plan to upgrade to the quieter muffler as well. The current one isn’t too bad especially if you’re running at mid-power or higher. At lower power it seems to drone more.
The neighbor walking their dog is a nice touch.
Great videos! Would like your advice I am deciding between this wippro unit and hcalory SS2? I truly want the h calory tb2 but it’s totally sold out. Love to hear of what you would recommend in that price range.
It's interesting that some guys have gotten these with very quiet pumps and others with noisy pumps.
"quiet" is subjective for sure and I'll admit it is "quieter than others" but it is not what I would call a "quiet pump"
“I keep my house at 60°”. Tell me you don’t have a wife without telling me you don’t have a wife, lol.
Actually I meant 65 and that’s what the wife “allows” me to keep it at
Depending on the structure couldn’t you recirculate the air from inside and warm the 63* air instead of the 16*?
I have tested systems with and without recirculating the air and couldn't tell any difference. When you are talking about the diesel burner putting out around 300°, a 40° difference in the intake air just doesn't make any impact.
Thanks for the video. I do have one question, I’m looking to buy the heater, but I have a Dometic PLB-40 and I cannot find any information if it would run the Wippro Diesel heater 8K, if you have any info on this that, would be great, Thanks
Looking at the PLB-40, I would have serious doubts that it would fire up a diesel heater.
Would you be down at trying it, If I got you the PLB-40
Greetings. Thank you for your review. Wondering if you were to recommend a diesel heater for a truck tent, what one would that be? What kind of power source would you suggest also? Much appreciated.
Of all of the ones I have tested, the one that goes with me in my trips is the LF Bros N2 Pro. It’s the best built, quietest, and has the best accessories.
@@TrailTraveler Thank you. Could you please recommend a power bank/source and how you connect?
@@thomasmeyers5899 I generally use a Bluetti AC70 connected through the 12v port.
There is a gentleman who shares using the remote on this type of Wippro All in One and he uses a 12 volt battery from a deer feeder to start and run the hunter
Got a link?
Where did you get the hose from? I grabbed one off amazon 3in. And the coil is wrapped tight. Restricting it down to about 21/2. Which caused an overheating issue. And it has a smell when it got hot. Unusable
This is the host I use - amzn.to/4flZ6Yn
What did you think of the hose that comes with the Sunster. I didn't get mine yet but I figure I may have to put an elbow at the heater to go up to my RV window and another elbow to go in the window. The distance is about 6 feet of hose. If this creates too much resistance I may have to go to a 4" hose.
I always use this hose: amzn.to/4flZ6Yn
@@TrailTraveler Thanks
@@TrailTraveler No problems with overheating the end closest to the output?
@@danjohnson8170 No problems so far
Wondering if it's possible to upgrade the control unit to one with an app.
Possibly, it would depend on the electronics in it. I don't know how to answer that. Maybe try in one of the Chinese Diesel Heater groups on Facebook?
is there a known upgrade for the tank cap?
Not that I know of
Is this a weatherproof unit, or should it be covered in rain and storms?
@@sunshineblueskyznc they don’t claim that it is so I would cover the control panel if possible
Covering it makes sense to me. Would not be good to wake up in the morning with a foot of snow or a bunch of ice on top of the thing, or maybe a bunch of rainwater inside. However, I watched a video posted by someone who put a big storage bin over top of the heater. Not a good idea in my view since it might restrict airflow and cause the thing to overheat.
Have you ever had any issues with diesel "gelling"?
No, during the winter, the diesel fuel here is winterized
I just checked Amazon and the link leads to one of these for $189.
This unit is 6 liters not 8 liters. They LIED.
Unfortunately another video without any information on using the control panel. Non existent on TH-cam or the web . Imagine the views when somebody finally does that.
