Sprinter heaters for cold nights(and days too)

[Fastpaddler]

Just returned from a week of rain every day camping up Island here. Got cold so used furnace. I have always used the propane furnace but I don't see why I cannot use my ceramic, oscillating, tip over and stops ELECTRIC heater instead, including at night because it is plugged into a proper plug and has a thermostat.
I am usually paying for hydro so why use my propane. Advice anybody.

I use a $17 vornado heater 750 watt. bed, bath, beyond, 20% coupon.
Small fits in cabinet. 750 watt is about 6 amps.

We set it at 1/2 and it gives a gentle waft of warm air quietly.

of course it's a while since we used it ( AZ) , but it kept us happy at temps down to 26ºF with a high of 42º

we are paying for electricity at the campground, so might as well use it vs propane.

ps "Hydro" is Canuck for Electric Service.

Of course you can. Although we have electric heat built into our Rixen's/Espar system, we always carry a small ceramic unit as a backup.
