Truck heater

[GarethM]

They are 2 or 5kw, having bought an "8kw" for the workshop it's just a rebranded 5kw.

 

You can't argue with the laws of physics when it burns 0.5l per hour, ie 5kw.

 

It's cheap cheerful and it helps cut down on the 30kw torpedo use.

Sorry, physics? They run on dosing pumps. With the better control panel you set the dosing rate.

Fuel usage, you can't get overunity.

Tell us the maths when running these heaters in hertz.

Plenty of videos of the Scottish guy testing and playing with the hertz settings.

 

What are you trying to argue ?.

I’ve watched him for hours, I’m ‘arguing’ your fuel usage.

Not a clue, left it stock on the H6 setting as the controller is a bit of a law to itself to decipher.

 

The booklet says 0.64l per hour on the 5kw. It empties the 4litre tank and it gets refilled with red, I'm hardly watching it's use compared to the 30kw torpedo at 3+ per hour.

 

You can't argue it's any more than a rebadged 5kw tho.

pump dose 0.022 or 0.016 x hz x 60 sec x 60 mins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVf1TwbLKqQ&t=11sYou

Sounds like good marketing, I sense a business opportunity go selling 1000bhp cars. Rebranded Skoda's, like.

Aren't Skoda owned by VW ?.
