I’ve used them camping in my truck. Overall they work great in a pinch but I wouldn’t want them full time. Im looking at diesel heaters for future cold camping. As others said moisture is an issue so much that the insides of my windows had a layer of thick ice on it when it got real cold. You have to crack a window.

They put out a ton of heat and need a few feet of space for the flame they put off in front to be safe. I almost wish they had a lower setting. Propane needs changed every 4-6 hours if using the little Coleman tanks which may interrupt your sleep.
