Hey guys any ideas how to heat this brut with no eletricity. its a 1967 (love shack, thats what i tell the wife) travel trailer. has eletric if i plug in the wall. but no walls on the ice unless i use a ass load of extension cords and someones house. ;D So i was thinking something with propane. It about 10x6x6 inside. oh did i say this was in mint condition, jk nothing butt. but the stove works and only # 995 when new little less after a remodel job. Cant wait to get out there ;) thanx for the help guys its around the cornor slacker

If you have a stove in that trailer I'd just light the burners. Make sure you're getting a little fresh air from somewhere.

I would just buy a cataylic heater that runs off a little propane tank. Coleman sells them as black cats. I got the radiant heat style one and it works great.
I dont use it often but when i do, its a blessing

Slacker;
You might want to check and see if the walls/ceiling/floor are insulated. It would heat alot easier if it was.
Rather a large space to heat...... in my neck of the woods (Northern Mn), I'd be looking at something vented that put out more BTU's. 20-30,000 BTU....... Just a thought.

I would not use the stove burners for heat. [safety issue}.instead buy the mr. buddy heater. it puts out plenty of heat. you can use a 1lb. cylinder or the optional hose and a 5 or 20 lb. propane tank. if that don't work create your own heat. after all it is the LOVE SHACK. haha.
