Now hang on ladies!!! With all this HTFU talk I need to justify myself :angel:
I bought my two convection heaters because of a recent trip to Putty Beach. It was the weekend where we had floods in Sydney & no fires were allowed on the beach front campsite. It was cold...brrr! You may call us a bunch of nancy boys, hehe! ...good enough excuse for me :D
Now I have this mental picture of you wielding a chainsaw in each hand, a bit like a gunslinger in a Western movie.Quote:

The benefit of a brick as opposed to rocks is you can be sure it's not a river rock , prone to exploding when heated.
The other answer to not getting cold when sitting around is thermal underwear , (pants and top ) and a beanie on the head when in your sleeping bag.
On a LROCV leaf springs trip the other year it was minus 5 :eek: overnight at Knockwood (near Jamieson Vic ) and the tent condensation inside had frozen:o.
Using the thermals , beanie and good sleeping bag method I was warm as toast.
Your little bloke should be okay.
I worry about any method of flame or hot pad heating in tents.
Hope this helps.
Pete
Thanks Pete for some useful information....now as to you other lot....Panda :p etc. Ask the kiddies has daddy gone soft...me thinks not. Cold...yes it does get cold up here....just where we are in the hinterland gets into single digits and where we are going gets below 0....so nerr nerr nerr ;).
I also like to take a coffee plunger for nice coffee...does that also make me a nance. At this stage, there are 3 chainsaws coming, whiskey.....blardy hell....sounds like RC's advice :o......and a blazing fire.....now that my other 2 children are coming...making 3 of us in the tent....the body heat alone should keep us warm....plus maybe some water bottles. Though havent given up on the heater idea as of yet....I am getting older :D,
Regards
Stevo
You're welcome Steve:)
But in the same vain as some of the other posts , we are pulling out 2 off 500kW Boilers from a job soon;)
To save packing space you would probaly be okay with just the one :p
They still work and if you can organise 380 mj/hr of 4.0 kPa gas whilst on the trip ,I will send one up for you to take:eek:
Yep ... they're soft alright. A bunch of princesses! And I thought we were supposed to be the softer sex :Rolling::Rolling:
