my next shanty heater

[snowcone]

i have been  checkn out my next heater, instead of a big heavy buddy heater this one looks like it will be nice and light.  im not getting any younger and the need to lighten the sled is a must.  cant believe how my sled looks like a junk wagon   hahah   now the next thhing is that heavy gas drill......cant seem to load any pics   got lucky with the one  haahahahah

[holehopper]

I use the same one and it does good job.

[snowcone]

nice ,   glad you guys have them ,  beats my heavy heater   lol   hows the run time on the 1lb tanks

[King-fish]

Im pretty sure I got about 6-7 hours on one tank

 I'd say the run time is actually probably longer than that. And it's plenty hot enough. Unless it's really cold and windy, I can only run it for 10 or 15 minute in my Kenai thermal without cracking the door or I get too hot. The smaller size and lighter weight plus less heat make it about perfect for a one man flip.
And I started using a clam plate with a 900 series Dewalt drill on my 8 inch laser auger this year. Even with a 60v battery it's not super heavy, and can really chew some ice. All the snow this year makes you really think about all the crap you haul around doesn't it? Lol

Totally agreed!   And yes those are great heaters!  I don’t have one, but am planning on it for next winter.   The Buddy will stay in my Wilcraft and my Clam thermal flip will I’ve the smaller one.  Can’t get rid of the shanty for those lakes I can’t use the Wilcraft.

Yeah, Snowcone, I'm in the same boat. Must lighten the load.Going to put Mr. Buddy Heater away along with the heavy gas drill, going electric! Handwarmers usually do a good job but sometimes you need more heat on cold and windy days. Good idea, buddy! I'm going to buy one and use as needed.

Have one and it works really well in the 1 man. I sold my gas but still am looking to lighten the load some more. Thinking about going to one of those jiffy pops considering a 2 man is only about 20 lbs. Are they to much hassle is you want to move around?

I love my 1960's Coleman catalytic heater have had it for 36 years ,  but i have to count is as a person in the shanty lol.
