Van Heater

cool, u got an inverter for it, i was thinking of gettin one for mine, but im running out of space in my van for things! lol

 
Could always chuck a quilt over your gear for a bit more insulation.

I think that keeping the frost off won't be you're main prob, I've found if the waters very cold when you begin, it can freeze up in use, if you can get it to 10 degrees plus, you'll usually be ok. I think jeff worked out that a barrel loses about 1 degree an hour, will obviously depend on how evil it is outside and a tank will be different cos of the bulk amount

 
I wasent sure what one to get, I remember you posting a link to one. So went and looked for the same one but cheaper lol
yer its better to have one thats more than what you plug in, at least that way you can plung a bigger on in or a couple of smaller ones!

 
Are you going to connect it to a separate battery? Do you think you will get a full night use from it? I have purchased a water proof one (same size as yours heater), but need an inverter like yours. What type of inverter did you purchase?

Thanks

 
depends on what size your battery is,

i worked out that a 160w heater like his one would last about 2 days on a 110ah lesure battery

 
no need to do that, it gives out a low but steady heat, not like a lot of heaters. thats why it costs so little to run them

It should last no problem (from what im told) I spoke to a guy that is a pro in caravans and there electrics. I sent him details of what I had and he told me it will be fine there should be more than enough to cover that heater. I just need to make sure I drive around regularly, Which I do,
