Is it possible to exted the length by attaching jumper cables to the unit's battery clips? (Viair doesn't make an extension hose for this model)

I made one for my camper trailer. Its about 25 feet long. The VIAR web sight use too have the specs for jumper cables but I cant find them tonight. For mine it was 6 Gauge wire. I got the clamps from Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BPTUJ6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And i also used some 6 gauge wire terminals fastene to the inside of the clamps too secure the wire better. I got the terminals at Lowes. http://www.lowes.com/pd_119104-12704-770322_1z0yt4o+2z8vj__?productId=3130167&Ns=p_product_qty_sales_dollar|1&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNs%3Dp_product_qty_sales_dollar%7C1%26page%3D1&facetInfo=$5%20-%20$10

Shouldn,t be any problem at all. According to specs its ok to extend by 15 feet. I have installed mine and had to extend to both batteries by 12 feet and have not had any problems. Just remember to use the proper gauge wire when extending the wire per your manuel.

It is about 3 feet long, and it is not extendable, (unless you use some kind of adapter?)

yes. We have this same extension hose but we had to remove the little "tabs" on the one end. This makes a great extension for getting to high places without lifting the vacuum off the floor.

The hose can extend at least a foot (12 inches or about 30cm) probably farther but I've never tried and I'm not at home right now.

Sure you will just need a longer hose extension the input side is not that long

Yes, and some stores also carry a 'hose extension' that you could use in conjunction with the supplied hose. I should also note, my purchased unit came with a hose that was longer than I had anticipated, a full 5 feet long, and was very adequate.

No. You have to buy the rubber hose or copper pipe separately and install it yourself. I don't think there is any limit to the length.

Yes, the user can add extension tube to extend the 3 foot cable. Oasis Scientific provides 3.3ft, 6.6ft, and 9.8ft extension cable.

Attach to the unit there is a short piece of cable like 2' ( 70cm they said ) and with the sender even shorter piece 10cm, but they came with an extension that it's about 6' still in the short side for my application ( I have 2 land cruisers and made a bit complicated cable routing ). Altho, at that time I contact Koso NA and they said it's ok to extend the extension cable to a max of 10' using same awg caliber wire that they use in the extension .. On a Final note I have 2 of those Koso gauges and both are still working flawless ..

No such extension available. Probably can splice it to that length, having the right type of cable.

i just purchased this machine late sept. read my posting on amazon dated oct 1st. (Wolffe )yes u r right about the attachments being not proper.anyways. i found that it i very easy to get a i inchunion from a old vacuum from a local vacuum store and attach the old extension hose. i have 16ft of hose now . hope this helps. specially when vacuuming thecar. sorry ia had no reason to read your post until now.

The original hose is 25' and you can buy a 10' extension, which I did. But I've never had to use the extension.

I'm sure you can extend the length with no problem. Just buy the correct gauge and use good connectors. It would be a very easy project.

Yes I used an extension kit with this product and it worked great. You can just keep adding sections until you get to the length you need.

The power cord is only 4 or 5 foot long. If you mount the unit, it needs to be close to your battery. You could easily increase the length with some wire if you like. Just wish it was longer out of the box. Also, it would be nice to get a cover with the unit.

If you have the fire pit already, then you have the five (5) foot section of hose with the regulator, that came supplied with the unit. The ONLY hose I found that would fit, after visiting several local camping, sporting goods and home improvement stores, is item #HK60LP, which is ONLY available from Camp Chef directly. I could not even see it listed on their web site: I had to email the company to ask about an extension hose. That is the item number they provided--I ordered one for about $30.00--and it works perfectly. The extension hose is only five (5) feet long. So combining it with the original hose will give you a total length of ten (10) feet. I was not able to find any other hose (at the previously mentioned stores) that had the correct threads/fittings on each end to work with this unit. Bar-B-Q grill hoses DO NOT work with this fire pit. Order the hose directly from Camp Chef and you can be confident about using it. Once I found the item number, I entered it at Amazon to compare the cost of the hose vs. Camp Chef's price. Amazon does not even offer this hose.
