Car Camping in EXTREME COLD with New Heater | Winter Camping in an SUV

[@TolbersCamping]

Guys, it's actually much cheaper then I stated in video for these canned heats, it had been awhile since I bought some so I forgot price. I recommend these ones I used in video as even for only buying 12 at once it's like $2 per canned heat. Should be cheaper if you buy more at once. Here's link amzn.to/4brNORq

You already own an SUV with a built in heater. This video is literally the dumbest thing ive seen ever in the history of idiots. Start car, turn on heater.

[@themegasexybasterd]

Sorry bro $15 for 6 hours it BAD really BAD! That means just 1/2 the day for heat is $30. That's $900 a month for only 1/2 a day! I can fill up a 20gal. propane tank for $15 and run my small buddy heater on low for 3 days. That's $150 a month 24/7 and put out more BTUs.

[@briandean7206]

I just returned from a 5 day. Winter camp out in the arrowhead region in northern Minnesota . I have a 5 / 8 homemade insulated camper. That I pull behind my Jeep. I use a small electric heater for overnight and put a 25 foot cord on my generator and move it away from the camper. I burn under a gallon of gas for 8 hour overnight. This keeps me cozy warm and 100% safe without danger of carbon monoxide. Cost about $3 per night for that energy. Thanks for your video and let's keep on camping 😊

If you have a sams club membership, the 6 hrs heat cans is a 12 pack for $20 and free shipping.. costco might have something similar if not sams club. So $20 for 24hrs of heat isn't too bad but if its $5 a can, $60 for 24hrs of heat is a tad much.

[@WindsongSoundBath]

Propane is much cheaper than that.

[@jarred8733]

@WindsongPodcast 100% but that stove can't use propane

[@WindsongSoundBath]

​​@@jarred8733yes. I mean I like that it's smaller than my five gallon propane tank and wave three heater setup, but I pay about $25 for at least two weeks of heat in the winter. The heater in this video appears to be much more expensive to run. Is that right?

[@jarred8733]

@WindsongPodcast I have no idea honestly, I just know the heat source isn't the cheapest. I was trying to help him find cheaper sources. Propane would 100% be cheaper. The heater in the video is for either rich people or in a really bad emergency situation.

[@pattiannepascual]

which means if it's cold out, you need to keep the cans burning around the clock, which uses an entire case every day costing over $20 daily, and that's only if you have membership at Costco or Sam's club. Insane high price for heat.

[@arlenewolf5260]

Great video!!!! 10 degrees outside 64 degrees inside. I hope you will consider redoing this test with Reflectics coated with speaker box material on your windows (If you spray glue the speaker box material on the Reflectics it stops the conduction of the cold from transferring through the glass through the Reflectics and gives it a better "R" value) and see how much more heat can be retained. Also If the heat will work with the opening on the canned heat slightly closed to get more hours out of the cans.

You need a diesel parking heater, to heat my home I burn 20L in 1-3 weeks depending on the weather. Can't go wrong with those units. Save that heater/stove for just cooking instead. it's a nice dry heat & you windows will never freeze shut nor will you have to clear snow. For real. & if they are frozen shut running that diesel heater for less than an hour solves that. I got my small slide in camper up to 40c in an hour.

Tip for sitting outside in the cold. Use a Hurricane lantern with lamp oil (Preferred Ultra Pure). Place it in a cat litter bucket to prevent tip over and keeping it way from cloth. Sit in a chair with the bucket between your knees. Put wool (natural fire retardant) over the bucket, your knees and up a high as you can get it. You will sit toasty with just one flame.

Hey friend, use that snuffer. I experiment with different ways to heat the space around where I use my computer here in my house located in southern MN. I tried a Dollar Store can of heet some days ago. The length of time before it started to smell bad was minimal. When I decided to put it out, I used the can's cover and pushed it down with a screw driver. A few seconds later, I jumped at the sound of an explosion. The top had blown off! Better a little bad smell than an explosion:) Also, probably best not to depend on Dollar Store Heet cans:)

[@Greg_M1]

Yeah, good point about putting the lid on before the can has completely cooled down. In principle, I'd think that if you put the lid on while it's still hot, you'd be more likely to have an implosion rather than an explosion. But then, your experience suggests otherwise.

Electric heat isn't super efficient, but it is safer. I roll with 2 ecoflow deltas(2kwh). Electric blanket really helps keep me warm at night, but a small 200 watt heater does wonders as well. Insulation is your best friend. Excellent video!!!

[@johncramer9564]

Less expensive way is to use a Mr. Buddy or Little Buddy heater. They are rated "indoor safe" and less hassle, and mess than this system. I use the 1-pound Coleman fuel tanks and then refill them from the large propane tanks. By refilling the large tanks and then using the large ones to refill the one pound tanks, the cost per 4 to 6 hours of heat is only about $1.50, (vs $15 for the system you are using), and there are not all the empty cans and smoke to deal with that you showed in your video. The Mr. Buddy products are rated "indoor safe" and my carbon monoxide barely rises in its reading at all over the time I'm using the heater inside my vehicle. For extra safety I do keep a fire extinguisher in my vehicle, like you do.

[@johncramer9564]

@@artsteadman2230 My van has 120V equipped so I just use a dehumidifyer for when it's moist inside, and of course I do always keep a window cracked when I use the Mr Buddy heater. I also have a thermo-electric fan mounted above the grill so that the hot air circulates around the van instead of just going up to the ceiling. I also use a carbon monoxide detector inside the van, which I think the most it has ever measured was about 20% of the amount needed to set off the alarm.

I've heard that you can just put pasta in room temp water and it will rehydrate, just over a longer period of time than with boiling water. If you had started your meal that way, earlier in the day, you might have been able to just warm the macaroni and water to 180 degrees or so and then finished with the other ingredients without generating so much steam and condensate. Would get your forced air heater back on line sooner also. Just a thought. If you snuff the cans out, one at a time, while keeping the screw lid handy, maybe you could have snuffed a can and capped it, then move to the next one to minimize the smoke.

I think that you'll find that it's recommended that you pull out the wick on those heat cans a small amount and then fluff and flatten them to a 3/4" to 1" diameter before you light them. That gives the fastest start up of the fan and the highest btu per hour output.

Here’s a scary story you can share around your car heater. There once was a guy who loved tent camping. He slept on an air mattress which he would fill with the exhaust from his car. He had great success at this for 20 years and every other camper he came across praised him for his brilliance and economy. One camping trip he set up his tent and filled his air mattress and he closed up his tent tight to keep the cold out. The next morning he did not emerge. The air mattress had sprung a leak! He was found blue and unresponsive.

Question, what if after the solid fuel runs out, you refill the cans with crisco and a wick? Would that possibly generate enough heat to run the heater? If it would work, then it would cost pennies to run if you can buy crisco or other generic shortenings in bulk. Just food for thought.
