Tested by IvyEverything in this shop went out on a real trip with me before it earned a listing. Wet, cold, dropped, packed out. This one passed.
The power goes out in February and the house cools one room at a time. This 10,000 BTU propane heater throws radiant heat in all 360 degrees from the middle of a room, a campsite or a patio.
Two settings, 5,500 and 10,000 BTU cover 250 sq ft, with about three hours on low from a 1 lb tank, or a weekend off a 20 lb tank with an optional hose.
360 degree radiant head heats every seat around it, so nobody has to keep rotating.
Oxygen depletion sensor and tip-over shutoff cut the burner before a problem becomes an emergency.
One-button piezo ignition starts it cold with no matches, no lighter and no batteries.
19 inches tall with a carry handle and a grill guard, so it rides in a truck bed and stands up in a shed.
Crack a window whenever it is burning and never leave it running while you sleep. Park it in the garage through the fall and you are the one with heat when the lines go down.
