Quality Tent Heaters

Keeping warm in the fall and winter months

If you’re a fall and winter time camper, you can appreciate the thought of climbing in a warm tent when it’s time to bed down. About a month ago, I had an opportunity to break in my new “Mr. Buddy” tent heater. This is one product that truly delivers. Now, I must say…I’m not one who believes in hauling in all the comforts of home to the campsite. At the same time, I don’t venture into the outdoors for the purpose of freezing my butt off. This unit runs about 70 bucks and will definitely accommodate a medium or mid-size tent. The only downside I found was the need to place the one pound propane tank about once every three hours. That can be a bit of a pain when temperatures drop below freezing. Trust me, the frigid temps will wake you up every time that tank needs replacing. If you’re going to invest in a quality tent heater like the Mr. Buddy, I recommend you bring along a 20 pound tank and spend the few extra dollars on a quality propane hose. You’ll definitely appreciate the few nights of uninterrupted sleep. Just be sure to read the instructions thoroughly and take all safety precautions.
