The only time I use a propane heater is in my deer stand with the windows open. My cabin uses two electric space heaters and they work just fine....too many stories of people not waking up with the gas heaters.

Electric heaters are great - as long as you are plugged in somewhere!

The issue is that many times 120v isn't available....... it ain't gonna happen on battery.

A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

I removed the gas heater out of my camper because a mouse built a nest in the blower wheel, so upon opening the furnace to clean it out, I saw a tank where the heater burns the propane and its rusty, imagine a pin hole in that rusty tank, propane can leak through rust spots on a tank in a furnace. After cleaning the furnace, I bagged it with and all lines and parts that came with it and put them in the attic. Even pulled out the propane line through the floor and capped the hole with Brillo, and capped the propane heater line that runs under the camper to the main line to the propane tanks. I use the electric heater now and I only run a stove, a fridge plus a water heater ( all propane ) out of the camper. I have a electric mini stove on the side when I don't want to use the gas stove. If I use the gas stove, I open the vent with fan in the bathroom on the ceiling and open the vent in the front of the camper ceiling to draw fresh air and push the carbon monoxide out through the bathroom vent. I don't like the smell of the CO.
