This is an excellent review on the diesel heaters. I think the youtuber is in Sweden.

Most of the youtube reviews on the Chinese Diesel Heaters seem positive and satisfactory. Do you have links to any negeative review videos on them?

Aha - sure, they can burn multi fuel. Sorry I misunderstood you. Thanks for the confirmation.

Yes, Diesel heaters exhaust go outside in pipes. Paraffin heaters don't have exhausts, hence severe condensation in the room and fuel smell when starting and putting off.

Screwfix answers to the questions are seldom helpful or meaningful actually. But you get the idea what they will do when things go wrong. If still in warranty with the receipts, they wil hounour refund or repair. If not, they don't want to know about it. My Bosch drills have not been used...

My 2x Bosch GSB 18V-Li drills have lasted 8 years from NEW, and they still work great. The carbon brushes in them have no sign of wear. So maybe brushed motor tools are as realiable as the brushless more recent tools...

Great info. Thanks.

Sounds like an ideal setup for good heating with best economy.

It will be in the closed space of the shed / workshop. Paraffin price has gone up too I gather.

We are in residential area :( Diesel may not be cheap as chips as initially thought, if you consider the initial heater cost (about £150 - £200) plus 12V power supply (£20 - £50) and installation work and having to go to the pump station to buy the fuel every so often, and the cost of the fuel...

Do Kerosine heaters not cause over condensation and also are smelly?

Yeah I was also looking at the calor bottle gas heaters too. Was wondering how they compare to diesel heaters in running costs.

That sounds good. As long as Diesel is not going be phased out in next 2 - 3 years or become gold price, it seems good option.

My garden shed size of about 3m x 9m quite large it used to be a garage used by the previous owners of the house. I am using it as shed, storage and workshop. It is a wooden shed, damp and very cold inside. Was thinking of putting in wood burner, but diesel heaters spring up in youtube...

Most of the users seem very satisfied with the performance reliability and safety. But are they considerably cheaper than gas or electricity?

I see a lot of youtube videos on Chinese Diesel Heaters. Anyone using one? How do they rate in heating performance, safety and fuel cost savings? https://uk.vevor.com/diesel-heater-c_10321?v_tag=e6799d20-8aef-11ed-be65-c9c275c62b60.2

Great info and advice. Thanks.

Yes, possible. All I have done was pressing both brushes down firmly with a small screwdriver so that they could make contacts to the plates for sure. And that was it.

I just checked out my old Bosch drill bought new in 2015. It developed poblem of not starting when triggered. I was suspicous of the brushes and opened it ip. The brushes were still like NEW - I couldn't see any sign of wear on them. I put it back again (it was a bit of pain to put it back...
