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.

Nancy
