Using the VEVOR Diesel Heater while WINTER Camping Overnight on the Ice

  • With some solid ice it was finally time to get out and test the diesel heater for the first night of the season. With an active perch bite it took a while to get setup but once I got the heater pumping it was more then comfortable inside the pop-up hut. Without any complications I was able to run the heater for 16+ hours while I fished, made dinner and slept through the night. Definitely happy with this little heater and ready for more trips out on the ice!

    I have never ice fished, but am quite an experienced fisherman. This whole icefishing-camping-on-the-lake thing, is so attractive to me, because you actually camp and fish right next to your bed, its warm, you can cook. weather can be bad,..I mean this is really am awsome way to spend entire weeks during winter season. I would love to try this out.

      I love it. I honestly look forward to it each year. I love back country camping, exploring and fishing. Winter time gets a little hard to explore but there is something about camping out on a lake and catching a few fish while your at it. I definitely suggest giving it a shot! It also gets you out there for the prime time moments without setting up in the dark

    you can run these even cheaper, most things running on diesel are pretty lenient on fuel, but since these arent trying to drive an engine but just burning the stuff theyre extra lenient.
    kerosene/heating oil, vegetable oil, used motor oil, used vegetable oil etc. ofc depends on what you can get your hands on/whats legal where you are. Used vegetable oil you might even get for free, if you dont mind asking around cooking places that fry stuff.
    Obviously any old/used oil you have to filter first and it still might clog up some mesh/filter inside, but these things are build incredibly simple and very easy to just screw open to clean/replace those.

    Loved the video. I am building a similar set up with the new SS2 from Hcalory for my Otter flip over, but also plan on using it in my hub style fish tent for winter camping. I am contemplating either installing it inside the tent with the exhaust ported out, or outside the tent with output coming into the tent like you have done. I do like your hard lines instead of flexible hose. Can you tell me what size stove pipe you are using in the video and where did you find the strait piece and elbow fitting?

My question is the durability of the heater. Will the heater withstand the bumps and bangs of being towed behind a snowmobile?

      If you research it, there are several methods out there to lessen the sound of the pump. My heater is similar but isn’t pre-mounted in a case. I’ve assembled mine inside of a tool box and lined it with sound absorbing foam. Keeps the pump noise to about 50% of it’s typical levels.

    You worry waaaaaaay too much. You would have faired far better by putting the heater inside with you and running the exhaust outside. These heaters will absolutely cook you out of your tent if you let them. I run mine in a HF Apache box and mounted it to the side of my rig. I run it in the dead of winter while camping and the thing has NEVER let me down.
    There is a dark side, however. Do get into the habit of carrying spare fuel pumps; I carry 2 or three at all times because, for whatever reason, the fuel pumps seem to be the preferred food of the CDH goblins. If I have to take that one downside, then I will gladly take the tradeoff. I run my exhaust (wrapped) out of the bottom of my tent flap and it has never melted anything nor even remotely acted like it wanted to catch on fire; it simply doesn't get hot enough for that when it's wrapped. I find that 21 - 26c seems to be the sweet spot for my heater and it manages to keep both my tent AND my attached vestibule nice and toasty via a y splitter (adjustable). Also, ditch that clumsy metal pipe that you've got running and get an insulated "dryer" hose, it's way better, flexible and it will help minimize your heat loss. Honestly, you could have gotten it to the point that you wouldn't have needed to be bundled up in your tent; for whatever reason you chose not to. You ran the heater straight off of the battery and you absolutely could have run the heater all night on full blast with minimal draw and just a little more fuel consumption. Nice fishing.

      Hi, probably a silly question but can you explain what you mean by having spare heat pumps please? I have been hearing about these diesel heaters but I can't find any videos that fully explain them and their maintenance.
      I'd never want to get anything I don't fully understand or couldn't properly maintain myself but enjoy learning new things especially when it comes to staying warm in a tent during winter

    • @gabrielreyes8476
      @gabrielreyes8476 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Fuel pumps, spare fuel pumps. It's the little dose pump that regulates the fuel into the burner. For whatever reason, they have a penchant for going on the fritz often enough that a person should buy 2 or 3 as spares/backup. They are easy enough to change out and inside of 5-10 minutes you're back in business. Let me know if you have any more questions :)@@lizziexkittyx8650

    • @castawaytv

      Personally I like the heater outside as I don’t want the noise while filming and honestly I didn’t want it any warmer then it was. That was my first time being out on the ice and being actually comfortable throughout the night. Using propane heat on the past was always still cold and so much condensation. I know having it inside would keep it much warmer but for what I’m doing out there this setup was perfect! They are great little heaters, haven’t had fuel pump issue yet but I should definitely get a couple.

      I have the original Vevor like the one you have. It's about 4 years old. It still works great.
      I recently bought a suitcase style from Hcalory. It was a dud out of the box.
      Amazon gave me a full refund plus told me to keep it. They can't take back that it has fuel in it.
      I went and bought another one except this is a kit meant for RV or camper.
      I placed it inside the med size Ridgid tool box. It fits perfectly. I had enough room to place a 20ah battery and a solar controller. I can charge the battery with solar panels.

    I prefer to run my Diesel Heather inside first it consume less fuel because outside the heated air it cool partially if your pipe it not insulated if you keep the heater inside it preheat the air and the exhaust will heat the air even more i build like a radiator to increase the exposure with the air inside the tent so it increases the efficiency of the diesel heater not mention i know if it works or not the battery stay warm and functional all it OK i will try to use Propane next time it more cheaper and burn clean no fumes just mitigation of CO2 !
