The 8KW All in One Air Diesel Heater is a 12V parking heater made by EVGTTI. It burns diesel from a 5L tank and heats air in an aluminium combustion chamber. A built-in air filter, silencer and LCD switch come in the box.
People use it in vans, caravans, boats, trucks, garages, workshops and sheds. The heater weighs 8.4kg so it is easy to move or fit to a new vehicle. A 30m remote lets you start it and change the temperature from indoors.
It has overheating protection and automatic temperature control. A full set of installation tools is included.
8KW is the rated output power. That is the figure the maker gives. Owners say it kicks out a lot of heat. One warmed a large garage quickly. Another heated a small workshop well. A third heated a lorry body 1,370 cm long and 244 cm wide while running below full power. Real results depend on space size and how well it is insulated. Start on a low setting and raise it if needed.
The maker lists indoor use for spaces such as offices and warehouses. It has overheating protection and intelligent temperature control. The exhaust has to be routed outside the building. Reviewers repeat this point. The exhaust gets hot so keep it clear of the floor. One owner used bricks as a stand. Fit a carbon monoxide detector nearby. One reviewer did this and it never sounded.
Reviews are mixed. Nine customers mentioned noise. Three were positive and six were negative. The fuel pump makes a ticking sound while running. One buyer found the pump loud however they positioned it. Another said it was not as noisy as expected. A third said the pump got quieter with use. The unit comes with a silencer and a low-vibration fuel pump. If noise matters to you then mount the heater outside the sleeping area and duct the hot air in. One owner suggested this.
It is a 12V unit. You can run it from a 12V battery such as a car type one. Mike connected his to a 12V battery and it fired up with no errors. For use at home or in a shed you can run it from the mains with a 240V to 12V adapter. Amazon lists one as a frequently bought extra. It is not included. The box holds the heater only. One owner says the heater uses most electricity when starting and cooling down.
The heater needs assembly. The maker says a full set of tools for installation is included. One owner called fitting in a van super easy. Another said it was easy to assemble. Fitting does involve an exhaust run and an air intake. Plan where the pipes go before you start. Some buyers drill a hole through a wall or floor. You can also move it to another vehicle later.
The maker does not give a litres per hour figure on the page. The tank holds 5L. A fuel pump controls the diesel supply. Owners call it economical. One person topped up the tank every few days through winter. Another said fuel use for the heat produced is very good. Use depends on the power setting. Lower settings burn less. Keep your own record for the first few uses to learn your figure.
Yes within range. The remote control reaches 30m. Walls and other obstacles can shorten that distance. From the remote you can adjust fuel amount and temperature plus wind speed. This lets you preheat a car and help clear frost from the windows. The LCD switch on the unit is a second way to control it.
Most feedback is good. Overall 76% of ratings are 5 star and 5% are 1 star. The problems that appear are few but worth knowing. One buyer reported a diesel leak 4 months after purchase that caused damage. One said the unit would not start from the remote and the LCD did not work. Others mention a loud pump. One felt the accessories were not the best. Check all fuel line connections after fitting and again after the first few uses. Keep your proof of purchase. You have a 30-day return right on many products.

The heater is an all in one unit. The fuel tank is built in and holds 5L of diesel. A fuel pump controls the fuel supply. The maker says this gives 100% combustion. The pump is a low vibration type that is meant to cut noise. Cold air is drawn in through an air filter. It is then heated in an aluminium combustion chamber and blown out as hot air. The maker says the heat starts almost at once.
It heats air only. The exhaust must be vented outside the building. One customer noted that the exhaust needs to sit clear of the floor and used a couple of bricks as a stand. Another customer placed a carbon monoxide detector near the unit and it did not sound.
The heater has intelligent temperature control and overheating protection. A remote control has a range of 30m. The maker says you can use it to preheat a vehicle and to adjust the fuel amount and temperature and wind speed. This also helps clear frost from car windows. An LCD switch and a silencer are included.
The listing names cars and trucks and RVs and vans and technical vehicles and boats and buses and yachts. It also suits indoor spaces such as apartments and warehouses and factories and offices. Customers report use in a van and a boat and a shed and a garage and a small workshop and a small mancave. One customer heats a lorry body of about 1,372 cm by 244 cm. They run it below full power to take the chill off and keep condensation down.
The unit needs assembly. The maker says the full set of tools needed for installation is included. The unit is compact and easy to move. It can be taken off one vehicle and fitted to another. Customers describe fitting it in a van as easy. You can run it from a 12V battery. One customer used a mains power supply instead. A 240V to 12V adapter is sold separately and costs £23.99 on the page. A 200 cm stainless steel exhaust pipe is also sold separately and costs £12.99.
One customer reports that it draws most electricity when starting up and cooling down. It draws little while running. They think a long run is more economical than frequent starts and stops if electricity is limited.
The page has 158 global ratings with an average of 4.5 out of 5. Customers rate quality and function and heat output well. Heat output has 16 positive mentions and none negative.
