I was looking at tents on the Wynnster site last night, and kept seeing a little side panel advert for a stove heater, but I paid it no attention.

Can’t find it now, do you have a link?

Anyway, I don’t like the sound of anything you put on a stove to produce heat. You should not really be using the stove inside the tent, and if you do only for short bursts like boiling a kettle. I would be worried about the carbon monoxide these things give off.

If you have EHU then the obvious thing is a small fan heater. If you go for a Black or Blue cat then don’t expect too much from one. We have a BlackCat, and whilst it is ok, and nice and safe, it doesn’t kick out mega heat – just takes the chill out of the air (there are many posts on here about them, just try a search).

I’m hope others will agree: be very wary of any “adapter” that turns a stove into a heater- sounds a real bodge to me.
