    What do you need a heater for ?

    If for Camp - You'll need Heat, A/C, Rain Gear, a Pool, Floaties, Snow Shovel, Patio Umbrella, Ice Melt, Tow Chain, Fan, Firewood, Sunscreen, Coveralls and a Back Up Tent just to list a few items!

    Actually I would use an electric heater if you can. I've used both but any open type flame in a tent would make me nervous. We use a Vornado in our camper, tents and even pop up deer blinds if we have access to electric. They're not hot to the touch, plenty or more than enough heat and have an auto shut off it tipped.

    Amazon.com: Vornado VH5 Personal Vortex Space Heater, 2 Heat Settings, Office/Desk Heater, Black : Home & Kitchen

    We use a Mr. Buddy Hunter in our deer blinds, works great, has a low oxygen sensor shut off so supposedly safe indoors? We do not run overnight, but have it set next to cot so i can ignite before getting out of the sack, warms things up.

    I wouldn’t use a Mr Buddy in a tent. Fire and health hazards come to mind.

    The right woman always works well for me.
    Pass the "Sportsman Baton" on before you're gone, promote values for others to hunt and fish upon.

    We have used a Mr. Heater in our tent for years during deer season. Hung a tarp over the tent to help as a rain fly. We stayed warm on some really cold nights (until the heater ran out of propane)

    Lots of folks use the diesel heaters in tents. Lots of YouTube videos on them. They sit outside the tent and blow hot air inside.
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along
