After spending 2 nights away in my folding camper last bank holiday, does anyone know where i can pick up a small electric radiant heater. I've seen a few people with these but the ones in the shops to date seem too large.

Cheers Guys,

Will go and have another look next weekend. It would be nice not to to need one, but dont think its ever going to warm up!!

hi there we have now got 2 small heaters which are brilliant for keeping us warm in the folding camper.. i had never seen another one like our first one but upon looking through different camping pages on the internet I found a company called leisure trail they had the identical heater to what we had originally but the name was different. It cost £10 including p&p which i thought was a brilliant price. It is called a pyramid compact heater, they will keep any size camper/trailer tent warm and cosy has 2 heat settings unlike the halogen that seem to blind you with the light that they give off as well as heat, I have owned a halogen and compared to this heater i would go for the compact every time... I did get the last one that they had in stock but they are very helpful if you ring them and they may be able to get you one. I can say the heat that they pump out is brilliant and we bought the 2nd one to keep the awning warm when we go to scotland in 4 weeks time (its always cold in scotland ) . I forgot to mention that it also has a safety cut out switch if its knocked over. hope that this may help in your choice of heater.

Thanks Mal & Keiron,

Sounds good, will track down on Google. Thanks for your help.

Dunno if you have found anything yet but thought you might find these useful?

Towsure

Small Heater

The first link is towsure, you will see they do a small heater, 400 & 800 watt settings. The second link shows a different heater but 400 & 800watt. The second one we actually bought from towsure last year - they were probs carrying it as a promotional line hence it not being in the brochure or online.

Anyways, just to say, it heats the camper up lovely, or the awning and at 400 or 800 wattage doesn't use a lot of electric at all. Decent price too

Its also got that safety feature if you knock it over (or even knock it at all!) it cuts out!
