Why not consider a Dimplex coldwatcher, which is a small convector and so silent?

Used to be available in 500/1000 watt ratings, but both are the same physical size and weigh very little.

Convector is the way to do, takes a little bit longer to warm the tent up but you will only hear the occasional click as the thermostat kicks in & out.

They are bulkier than fan heaters, but very light.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

Hi we have used a Convector oil filled radiator. Dead quiet

Plus an Outwell Fan heater. Bit louder but did not keep us awake.

5 degrees outside but lovely warm tent using both!

I bought one of these last year. Really quiet and certainly takes the chill the off.
