Who still uses a Coleman fuel catalytic heater for camping?

Posted by Filed Under Camping Water Heater with 3 Comments

Does anyone still use a COLEMAN catalytic heater that burns Coleman Liquid fuel (not propane) for camping? Do you use it in a tent? How much ventilation do you provide in the tent? I’m a little worried about Carbon Monoxide if I use it in the tent.
Liquid Coleman fuel; Heater, not a cooking stove. It has a catalytic dome that glows red and provides heat. I used it in a garage with a carbon monoxide detector and the detector registered zero. I know it uses up oxygen.

Is using a propane heater in a car against the law?

Posted by Filed Under Camping Water Heater with 3 Comments

The blower motor in my Saab is broken and a new one runs 0 minimum (Swedish cars…) I’ve been kicking around the idea of using a small indoor-rated propane camp heater to heat the car, cracking the window for ventilation (6 square inches recommended by the manual) Anyone know if this is against any laws or regulations?
Why would it be a bad idea? Can anyone give me a specific reason?

As far as plug-in heaters go, I have one and the heat they output is worthless in Minnesota.
