The biggest concern for those who remove propane is either they haven't
installed a larger enough tank to supply the installed appliances for
enough time, or are venturing into areas/countries where propane
refilling might be difficult. Propane is far cleaner burning although
btu per gallon does fall short of diesel.
Propane heaters definitely burn cleaner (especially the Propex vs
generic RV furnaces) and usually require next to no maintenance.

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).
