sound i go for a

Eberspacher-petrol
propex

not sure on how safe the petrol eberspacher is?

Well, I'd considered all the usual suspects, and went with Propex. Arrived a few days ago but not fitted yet so cannot testify how effective/quiet/economical etc it is but have read all the threads on the subject and hopefully it's a good choice. (NB tho; I do have a tame GasSafe fitter to install it)

Propex.
Quiet' economical and cheaper then an Ebber.
We love ours.

Hi have a 2.1 petrol and with the help from a very clever man on here(OBG) I have a 24v webasto and a small diesel tank!.... 24v units are very reasonable 12v units fetch serious money!!

Petrol blow heater systems are perfectly safe.....

What you have to consider is Cost of course and space.
Using petrol for your fuel source (I take it yours is petrol engined) means you 'take off' from your existing fuel lines...no need for a gas bottle and of course you don't loose vital space.
This also has the advantage of being a much larger fuel source which is easier to replenish than a proprietory gas bottle.
The only real down side being petrol blow heaters tend to be rarer to get hold of second hand and usually cost more than the more common gas fueled systems.

Propex is probably the most popular addon blow heater but there are many others to consider.

The 24volt Webasto route is a good one but requires some modifications and additions to work.
Oldiebutgoodie is your man, I'm sure he would be happy to give you advice.

No modifications needed just a 10 amp 12v to 24v step up.... Under £10 direct from china ... It's the way forward!!!
