Other propane ceramic heaters
My single element Buddy heater is too much for my little camper so I've been searching for something similar but with fewer BTUs. HeaterThis one looks promising. Has anyone tried one?

Small Buddy on the low is 4,000 BTU as I recall.
If this is too much, consider Catalytic Heater Olympian 3.
3,000 BTU on the high, 1.6K on the low.
It's hard for me to understand the reason for heaters like Buddy, other than if you only need it rarely. They eat propane like there is no tomorrow, and consequently eat more oxygen and generate more CO, CO2 and water vapor, so you have to keep windows open which in turn affects the efficiency. Catalytic heaters burn fuel at the rate 3-4 times less.
Coleman has been steadily holding the bottom place in camping supplies for the last 10-15 years.
Btw, the one in your link is butane, not propane.
