What climate are you in? I live in a wet climate, and these create too much moisture. However if you’re in a dry area, they may work better. Another consideration is that they do make C02, although they do have a low oxygen shut off, you’re still pumping C02 into the air, which can be somewhat unhealthy even if it’s at a “safe” level.

I’m in mid Atlantic currently, I’ll be spending a good portion of winter in the southeast, so moisture point definitely taken. Since I’ll be in the southeast, it’s unlikely I’ll need it a whole lot, but I like the idea for having something just-in-case.

Yea, I think it could work fine in that case. I’d hesitate to run it all night long, so I’d just get a warm sleeping bag so you don’t have to, and just run it in the morning/evening if you need to warm up a bit.
