[RC] Safe Heater? - Nancy Sturm - Roger Rittenhouse

Hi Nancy
I have used the propane catalyst heater  with the O2 cut off sensor. Many out
there. $80 more or less.  I NEVER let it run when I am gone  from the trailer. I
cut it off at night. At least most of the time :) I use the std propane lantern
cyl.

Make sure the connection seal it very tight.

Safe if used with care.

Other option - a ceramic electric heater  very safe. You then need a power
connection or small quite generator. I have a Honda 2000iu and run the heater on
the LOW 900 watt setting. Works great. I of course cut it off at 10pm in camp.
Now I only camp in camp ground with plug in so we run the heater all night as
needed  :)
I am sure a 1000 wat gen would work fine also.

Of course is a hunting camp  just let the gen run all night :)

The next two rides on my calendar coincide with hunting trips which is fine
except that my husband needs the truck and geriatric camper so I am going to use
the Sprinter, which is plenty big enough for camping in but is just a big empty
space. I'd like to get some kind of heater to warm it long enough for us to get
dressed in the mornings. Anyone have one they've used?

Any other ideas for camping without ameneties? We did start out this sport
camping in a tent, but I'm getting older every year and am quite spoiled by
having had even our modest camper.
