heat:
we set the thermostat to 50F at night, put on a quilt.
Catalytic propane heaters are claimed to be safe, many have a low oxygen sensor. It is unvented so you will put about 1 gallon of water into the air for every gallon of propane you burn. So if your in a place with low relative humdity, it helps, if your in a place where RH is already high, expect wet windows. Since we usually winter camp in places with high RH, coupled with use of stove, oven, and wet clothes, we pass on the unvented heaters.
There is always the possibility of Carbon monoxide with an unvented heater. CO is deadly, and will give you NO warning if your lucky you survive.
