I have a heat strip and it does keep the trailer warm when outside temperatures are above 45 degrees. The biggest advantage is that it takes up no space unlike a portable heater that needs considerable clearance around it. It also is ready to go at a flick of the thermostat. I think that many expect to feel hot air coming out the vents, but it is only a bit warmer and the air movement makes it feel like there is no heat, a little patience will result in possibly enough heat. Now when it gets colder, I break out my portable "fireplace" and plug it into a dedicated residential outlet.
