I bet this is a sponsored video for diesel heaters. I would recommend to not go with a diesel heater and choose a propane heater like the awesome portable mr buddy propane heater which is perfectly safe and best option if used properly indoors obviously. The price, compact size, costs to maintain, reliability, and effectiveness, are the obvious reasons why they are superior to diesel heaters in 2024 for short weekend trips. There are many comparisons online that highlight the pros and cons if anyone here is interested in doing a little research.
You can’t be serious that a Mr. buddy heater is superior to a diesel heater. From a safety standpoint, to ease (and reliability) of use especially in single digit or negative temps, and mainly just the warm dry air that doesn’t fill your tent with condensation, diesel is way better and safer than propane. Unless you’re talking about something like a propex heating system which is awesome but pretty cost prohibitive.
I’m sure that Texas is lovely. And it’s lovely given the fact that it doesn’t have the same winters that we have in the Midwest. There’s no way that propane buddy heater with a flame is better in a confined space. The biggest problem with it is that it puts so much moisture into the air That other forms of heating don’t. Your entire tent would be frozen or dripping from the inside if you ran a buddy heater all night.
you took over 3 minutes of fast talking intro before you got to the first recommendation. Too long. I almost bailed on you. Agree on the bag, but the pad is the other 50% of the solution, which most people don’t realize. Get one with an R value of 5+. Just bought a diesel heater and will be trying it later this month. Wood stoves look cool on YT but require constant care and feeding, an expensive tent, and are not conducive to a long nights sleep.
Eh, it's a podcast which is why it's a bit long up front, but glad you stuck around. Yeah, wood stoves look cool but are a lot of work. That Hest mattress I use has great R value and has been awesome this winter so agreed on that too.
Great video - thx.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video Fletch! Diesel heaters are getting better and better and are a game changer for winter camping. 👍
Agreed! Thanks buddy!

@@AllThingsOverlanding Love my diesel heater and was a breeze to install
