Power Your Winter Camping
As the winter camping season sets in, braving the cold for a night under the stars doesn't have to be a chilly affair. With a Diesel Heater, you can keep warm while you sleep, using minimal power for the ignition and fan. While the heat is generated by burning diesel, the electrical components require a reliable power source. That's where portable power stations, also known as power stations or solar generators, come in handy for campers.
A suitable solar panel can convert midday sun into stored electricity within a Power Station, which can then be used to power your Diesel Heater throughout the night.
Understanding Diesel Heater Operations
Diesel heaters are a blend of old and new technology, using a small electrical charge to initiate combustion and a fan to distribute warm air. They provide a reliable source of heat for your RV, campervan, or remote cabin, making them ideal for off-grid adventures.
Power Requirements for Common Diesel Heaters
Typical Diesel Heaters operate within a range of 8 to 12 amps during startup, with some models requiring as little as 0.5 amps to run continuously, averaging around 1-2 amps. With a 12V power source, this equates to approximately 96–120W at startup and about 24Wh thereafter.
Calculating Runtime with ALLPOWERS Power Stations
When considering the runtime of a Diesel Heater powered by an ALLPOWERS S1500, S2000 PRO, R1500, R1500+B1000, or R2500, you're looking at a device with a substantial capacity. For instance, the S1500 offers 1092Wh, while the R2500 provides an impressive 2016Wh. These power stations can easily handle the power draw of a Diesel Heater, providing you with a warm night's sleep.

S700 | 606Wh | 8-10 Hours | SP012 100W |
S1500 | 1092Wh | 15-18 Hours | SP027 100W, SP033 200W |
S2000 PRO | 1500Wh | 20-25 Hours | SP033/SF200 200W, SP037 400W |
R1500 | 1152Wh | 16-20 Hours | SP033/SF200 200W, SP037 400W, SP039 600W |
R1500+B1000 | 2304Wh | 32-40 Hours | |
R2500 | 2016Wh | 28-35 Hours | SP033/SF200 200W, SP037 400W, SP039 600W |
Economical, Eco-Friendly, and Convenient
Using a solar generator to power your Diesel Heater is not only cost-effective but also an environmentally friendly choice. By harnessing the sun's energy, you reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lower your carbon footprint. Moreover, the convenience of a portable power station cannot be overstated. With multiple output ports, you can power a variety of devices and equipment during your trip, such as a CPAP Machine, Drones, laptops, and fans.
Versatility Beyond Heating
While the primary focus is on keeping warm, the ALLPOWERS range of power stations offers versatility for all your power needs. Whether it's charging your phone, running a small fridge, or using a fan to cool down during the day, these portable powerhouses ensure you're never left without power, wherever your adventures take you.
Conclusion
With a Diesel Heater and an ALLPOWERS power station, you're equipped for a comfortable and energy-efficient camping experience. Embrace the great outdoors this winter, and let the cold be no barrier to your enjoyment of the wilderness.
