I have seen various mentions of using heaters in tents, as we are totally new to this can anyone recommend any, and what size can we use, please?.

Thanks,

Mick.

Thanks Paul,

Only really need it for when we are sat in tent in the evening before going to bed. possibly in the morning when we get up. Got a child 8 yrs old so would prefer fan heater.

Cheers

Mick.

We have a sunngas parabolic heater that screws onto a refillable camping gas bottle.

Thanks to all who sent advice on heaters for tents. Very much appreciated.

Mick.

I use a coleman black cat and swear by it. Didn't really need to use it until the kids had already gone to bed and it was great for warming the tent up in the morning. Powered by gas cartridge but then if I was using EHU, I'd probably go for a fan heater.

There's no naked flame with a black cat but I do get the kids to give it a wide berth if they are around.
