I will show how I use a diesel heater to heat my cheap 3 season family tent and go over alternative heating options. Occasionally I will use this tent in when camping in cold weather and would like to have a good heat source. A four season tent would work better, but they can be a little pricey. Most of us have a basic mild weather 3 season tent, so I wanted to see how well I can heat the same tent I use in warmer weather. The test results are in!
Note: I keep the Lithium battery inside the tent above freezing temps even in mild weather. The battery is used for lights, and various other things inside the tent.

Your lithium battery will not last long in the cold? Wouldn’t it be better to use a deep cycle battery?

That's what I was thinking too. Also, instead of a moving blanket, maybe a good tarp.

Yes, I agree! That's why I have that long cable for power. I keep the Lithium battery above freezing inside the tent even in mild weather. I also use the battery for various other things inside the tent. I have a deep cycle as an option but that thing is so heavy compared to Lithium and I don't want a wet cell inside the tent. Thanks!

Nice demonstration on that, Keith. A buddy of mine takes a moving blanket on his camping trips so he can either put it on the floor of the tent for extra padding and warmth or if he’s taken a cot he’ll sometimes throw it over the tent to keep heat in. He uses a buddy heater, though. Also depends on the structure of the tent if it will take the extra weight - his is an old-school ridge style so it works for him. The built in diesel heater I have in the back of my truck camper has been working well - only had a temperature sensor fail on me. Found it running constantly in the yard one day but only blowing cold air and found out it was the temperature sensor. A new one fixed it up but I added a master power shut-off in case it happens again when it’s not being used. I was also fortunate enough to get a free all in one cabinet heater like yours as I started doing reviews for the online shopping giant this year and get sent free items for doing that with. Gradually getting better items offered now. Mine doesn’t arrive for a week or so but I’m keen to try using/modifying it in the way that you have. Will need to get another battery, though. Thanks for the upload. 👍🏻

A blanket over the tent in dry weather would help quite a bit. I did reviews for a while and got some pretty cool items then they cut me off for some reason. Get a lithium battery - you will be glad you did. Thanks!

I always have a Co2 and smoke detector for piece of mind even though I believe the heaters are all safe. It's a small investment for not having to worry about it and getting a good night's sleep. Thanks!

Which power adapter are you using when plugging the heater into AC? (Thank you)
