        Years ago when My Wife & Daughter ceased to have time & desire to go camping I chose to

remove the Propane from my 90Westy because I no longer needed it & I did Not like the idea of

hauling all that unnecessary weight around with Me everywhere I go (My Van is a Daily Driver) &

I also like getting rid of that weight from the DriverSide ~ Which also prompted Me to delete the

Kitchen Unit ~ I now just take a small portable propane tank & stove & heater As Needed ~

Buy an illegal, direct copy of a product developed over many years by a good German company (Espar), one that carries no warranty and barely any support from the sellers. If one already has a gasoline engine and tank installed, why not support a legit company that sells a superior [gas-fired] product with full warranty and support in the USA - Webasto? If a 4kw version is desired for larger vans, the choices then expand to include Espar (whose design the Chinese stole).
