Gonna head out mon morning.

Last cold snap i had some issues getting it started. At my truck it works fine.

Is it the propane in cold weather? Or the starter causing the issue???

I tried firing mine up last week, and it was a no go. I gotta open her up and see what's up.

I've got one Little Buddy heater. Didn't have it long before it wouldn't light. I was gonna trash it, but decided to see if it would light if I used one of those small bic fireplace lighters. It lit just fine, so now I have the heater and the lighter in the blind and all is well. That approach worked on a balky Coleman Catalytic heater too.

That was gonna be my backup plan. But didnt know if it would work. Will do some test runs tomorrow.

I just leave a lighter in the blind with mine... I've had some problems on really cold mornings but a lighter takes care of it.


You can run but you can't hide...

I got around to opening it up. It seems as though a mouse thought it would make a nice condo. In the process of making a nice nest inside. It decided to chew through one of the wires. Guess it's my fault for leaving it in the blind for the past year. I repair the wire, and now it works like new.
