Save you some money too. 👍 Yes, the ducting and 220VAC to 12VDC power supply and etc stuff, will save me about 100 euros, but that saved money goes to these things: 300cm Diesel Heater Stainless Steel Exhaust Pipe Tube 24mm Stainless Steel 316 Thru Hull Exhaust Fitting Tube White fuel hose upgrade Pipe Kit with filter Heater Ducting Pipe Outlet Parking T Y Branch For Diesel Heater 75mm |

One other idea came to mind ... To buy a same 8kW heater, but the version, what heats the water too. Then I could have warm or hot water in my garage for washing hands and etc. But that is maybe for future. Other idea, was use the air/water heater on my Aixam, but I want to remove the heater at summer, to have more storage.

Yesterday, I did cleanup on my YT channel, and deleted 250+ videos, because they did not have any views or low views. I accidently deleted my last diesel heater Part 2 video too, with those 250+ videos. I was glad, that the video was still on my PC and I re-uploaded it. We all make little mistakes sometimes  Here is the video: |

Today, as a result of the intense auction finale, I got such a bunch of tools and accessories. Some things make no sense to me, like the plastic tool holder, what is inside Makita tool cases (the top left corner, black one). I will keep some tools, but I guess some I will be sell. I saw that about 6 things out of this bunch of tools and accessories, cost almost as much as I paid for them. Actually, I was only interested in the grease gun, tire pump nozzle with digital display for the compressor, nozzle kit and clamps. When the things arrive, it turns out that some things are still needed. I wonder what that gadget with the blue end and the long yellow handle is on the left? I will probably sell the things that are not needed. I also made a table of things and calculated the approximate value, if I had to buy them separately - approx. €400 😮 Tools, what I did get: ---------------------- Angle NEO 185 mm, with marking holes HULTAFORS MRS 18 cm 90/45 degree angel tool 2x Spring clamp (black with orange) 1x Spring clamp with extendable jaws. Caliper Probuilder digital metal 150mm Probuilder tire pump digital Various nozzles from Makita drill Set. Tool for adjusting the EasyKey plinth leg 'Serie 04' Makita battery powered tool nozzles (without case, battery and rack) Carpet knife Rivet pliers Tool case QBRICK System PRO 600 Probuilder sawing jig with saw tape measure 5m, parquet assistant  (maybe the grey one in bottom left corner) makita bits in a box, FERE supler/caliper, XLTools Tire Inflator Gun Digital Nitecore battery charger, Silicone gun wolfcraft, load belts, phone holder in the car.  |

Today, I brought a 220VAC to 12VDC Power supply for my diesel heater. Also arrived the second heater, that I ordered from EBay. I need to do some upgrades to it (fuel system with filter and pump mount), before I install it to my Aixam. This power supply will power my garage heater.   |

Will be interesting to see how it fits to the car.  I need to make a custom box for it ... maybe. I did order a new one too, without the case. That one has Bluetooth and one bracket, that the tall case one does not have. I do not want to destroy the case tho.    |

Yesterday, I got 2 packages. One was the 2x fuel system upgrade for 2 heaters and the second one was the heater, what goes into my car. I think, I will swap the heater heat outlets and sell the other one, or keep it for spare parts. Aslo, I think, I will use the tower heater fuel tank instead, and ditch the 10L one, what came with the heater. Fuel system upgrade:  Diesel heater for the car:  |

Yesterday, after my day shift, I went to garage and made extra mounts to the frame, what has additional lights. To the extra mounts, I did install the orange blinkers. But when I did test them, the passenger side one was not orange. It looked like, it was faded orange, and it is not good at all. So, I need to swap the faded one out to a new one. I have total 4 of those blinkers. I just need to extend those wires. There are 3 wires - red, black and yellow. Red is power 12V, black is ground and when I put a button between yellow and extra red wire, I can change the blinkers blinking modes. I might put extra wiring harness with a switch, to the blinkers. Right now the blinkers are connected to the same harness, what powers the extra led lights on front of the car. Pic:  |

The other nice deal I got from auction. It was a battery powered Makita DCS552 metal caw. got it for 220€. I have the Makita impact nut driver tool, with two batteries and fast charger already. I hope that charger work on that battery, what comes with the saw. Then I can use 3 batteries. Brand new does saw cost about 213€ without battery, charger or cutting blade. Cutting blade is about 60€/pcs and charger and battery price I do not know. I quess if I go to the local Makita store, I would spend about 500€ (or more), if I want to buy the same metal saw, with metal cutting blade, battery and charger. I definitely needed that saw, because I need to make straight kuts, when Im gonna make the storage / heater mounting place (for winter time only) for my Aixam. Summertime, I will use the bow, as a storage.   |
