Petrol forced air heater options?

[escadventure]

I'm looking for a vendor of small petrol forced air heaters. Like Webasto Airtop 2000, or Espar Airtronic B1LC.

Anyone know where I can get one of these? Or something comparable. Not diesel.

Should be easy to find one since you are in Germany... maybe talk with a company like "Gut Automobile" in switzerland as they do a lot of work on the older Pinzgauers which are petrol engined.

It exists, since I have one in the XV-JP. It is indistinguishable in operation from the diesel Airtops, for good and bad--including a lot of noise when getting up to temperature. Inarguably convenient, though.

This one might suit your purposes:

Best I can tell, the difference between getting it here in Germany or in the States is about $1000 in cost of parts. But I'm finding it difficult to source a US vendor just searching the net. I'll pay the piper but don't want to throw money away if I can help it.

Pay the piper is right...

I used to have a small petrol heater similar to this that I bought at an aircraft salvage. I mounted it under the hood in the VW bug I owned at the time. It was amazing! I have no idea what model of plane it came out of, but I only paid $50 (in 1974). You might check on that.
