We use a Morco D61b.
Caravanners seem to swear by them.
Bit more pricy but ours has been in for 3 years without even a hiccup.

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

It is.
There's one above it (can't remember the model off hand) that uses electric ignition rather than piezo.
It does seem a better buy but our one has been fine for ages and its easy as pie to fit and use. No maintenance (for us) either.

Being a piezo does that mean there's always a lit pilot light on it? Unless you turn gas supply off

Yes.
Only takes a second to knock it off then back on again though.
Like I said, the one above is better but this has been great and was cheaper.

Sounds good. Shame it has to have a flue and quite big,

Think that's why I like the L5, small, electric ignition, can be used without flue too.

This is a UK base company and no 20min cut off

http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=162971.msg1359616#msg1359616

Same as the L5, costs more, and why do you think they have a cut of??? For safety!!
Mine has a 20min cut off and I've used it now for the last 3months. It's never cut out on my, you never need it running for that long!!

If you do need it for a long time all you need to do is to stop flow for 30secs then turn back on and away you go!!

Either buy the same thing for £180 without the safety feature or buy it for £140 with the safety feature!! I know what I would do!!! My vans worth alot and i dont want to loose the lot!

The 20min cut of would be a pain walking back 100m ever 20mins, I for one very happy with my hot water system and would recommend them to anyone  ;)

Why would you have to walk back to the van, everyone has taps next to the poles they are using, all you need to do is to shut the flow of water off!!

Plus if it over heats then it could cause a fire, then if it dose you wouldnt be covered by your insurance as they haven't got a safety feature fitted! So they only ment to be used outside not in a confined place like a van!
