Anybody using a Dickinson (or other) type propane or solid fuel heater? I am thinking of putting one in, but would like to here some real world numbers of how they work.
Power consumption on the forced air is only one problem. They are also noisy. My last TC had a gravity heater, very warm very quiet.
Trying to do it on budget is also a deciding factor. I thought about just building a solid fuel heater. I am a professional welder so the fab part is no issue. May have to start looking for a good small design that pulls combustion air from outside like the Kimberly stoves.
