These heaters are garbage. I bought a second one a few months ago for a follow video. It cost $78. Think about this, Amazon made money, manufacture made money and of course HCalory made money. After profits removed, this is likely at $30 heater. Nope... hard pass for me.

OMG, I'm rolling right now. Great laugh brother!

Hi Janet, like anything when you start stacking weight up on top, your center of gravity moves up. :)

Awesome, enjoy Chad!

You're awesome!

Thank you!!

It was!! Happy holidays friend!

1000% agree, this was our first time that far north. Won't be the last!

It was Chehalis Lake. Highly recommend this place.

Ha ha ha, if staying the night there we would have. Thanks for stopping by new friend!

Hey friend, thanks for stopping by and welcome to the channel! I wasn't familiar with "Sunster" heaters and had to Google that one. My loyalty is with the end user, so I hope that works out for you, however if the 2.5 stars I saw this heater had on Amazon bits you in the butt, you have some perspective on other options. Regarding electric blanket, 100% friend... I have tested a number of these over the years as well. Great way to keep toasty!

Great review! I've been drooling over those Planar heaters, I just can't justify the cost as I only winter camp maybe 10 nights per year. I purchased the Sunster last month also on Amazon and so far the thing is solid, quiet and puts off a great amount of heat. My only gripe is that is is not maintenance friendly as the case is riveted. I ended up drilling out the rivets and replaced them with M3 rivet nuts, this way I can get to all of the components. In addition to this I also added in a fuel filter, replaced the green fuel line with actual fuel line then added an additional filter to better keep out fine dust and sand from the combustion chamber. At $200 USD you really can't go wrong.

A few factors go into that answer which depend on ambient temperature, size of tents, distance from heater and where you want the temps to be. Assuming it's not -50F, and temps are on positive side of "0", even a 2kW heater will keep both tents comfortable (assuming smaller tents). The larger the tent, the more BTU's you'll want.

It's basically the same thing you have on your except, the louvered section is on the inside.

OMG, it's one of the most majestic locations I've been too. Seriously thinking about heading back next summer to spend a week there!

Planar heaters? Or the Arctic heater from them? If Planar heaters, friend dive into my history here, I have a ton of videos on these heaters.

@4wdTALK Planar Arctic!

Brother thanks for stopping by today! You rock!

Ordered a Flex 1500 in 2021. It took about 18 months or so for us to even get the generator. Then they promised they would send an additional item to make up for the delay (a crock pot). We never received it. Then we bought extra batteries. We've used the generator (inside the house) a handful of times. It is now dead about 2.5 or so years later. Of course, it's out of warranty! Garbage! They have terrible reviews on the BBB site, BTW.

You rock new friend! Thank you for the kind words. How often are you heading out camping?

The FSR's are decent quality, but the RBM's are heavier duty, almost military grade. Expect to get many many more seasons out of the RBM.

Absolutely

Easily. I was just talking to a buddy a couple days ago on his family of 4 and recommending the Disc-o-bed bunk beds as well. These bed are great for space savings and getting more people comfortable in these sort of tents: amzn.to/3CJDI1q

Goal Zero Skylight :)

UP5 is a great tent and does have advantages over the Hexagon. While the Hexagon is much larger when set up, it's also nearly 7' when stowed away. Compare that to the UP5, which is just a tad longer than 4'. This is huge when transporting. The Hexagon is nearly double the weight, however the foot print is much larger than UP5. If you have large group or you just enjoy a larger space, Hexagon all the way.

Hey friend, great to see you as well!
