This looks like a competitor Mr Heater big buddy
Plenty of people use Mr heater in a tent, just make sure you take a Carbon Monoxide Detector and I would keep it placed off the tent with a wood board or something that won't melt or catch fire easily.
Mine was just delivered today and I have to say the Quality Control is unfortunately not good. It arrived in a box inside of a box (packaging was good). Upon opening the outside box, I found a small screw sitting loose ontop of the inside box. That was odd. Upon opening the inside box and removing from the packaging, a second screw fell out of the packaging onto the floor. After further inspection, I found the heating element sitting loose (two tabs on top were out of housing). I'm mechanically inclined and could most likely figure out where those screws go and put it all back together, but i'm pretty hesitant for something as potentially hazardous as this. Probably going to reach out to the manufacturer and let them know (they should want to anyway). The loose screw inside the packaging is one thing, but i'm amazed that the other screw was sitting on top of the inside box (which was sealed)! How is that even possible without someone on the assembly line not caring about the quality of the product? Its as if they knew the product was going out defective and didn't reject it. But they had the decency to at least pick up the second screw and include it in the other box!
Update: While on hold with their support number for over 30 minutes, I surfed their website to find this product and i can't find a trace of it (even though the manual suggested it). I feel that I've made a mistake with this purchase
Same thing happened with mine. I did the replacement thru the website, my second unit arrived today and seems fine.
yes, all professionally installed by state licensed professionals.
So your car is "professionally installed" while driving down the road or was it made professionally in a factory in the same way a propane heater is made professionally in a factory? Both assume and were designed around a non-professional end-user handling the product after leaving the "professionals." By your logic, you do not own a car, you rely on "professionals" to transport you from A to B as you cannot be trusted around flammable substances that can suffer from "a bad leak" without "state licensed professionals" being present while topping off the tank.
Come on, you fill your own gas tank and you think a little propane heater is going to go all explodey when swapping tanks they sell on the camping aisle at Walmart? LOL.

you obviously have no clue clue how much regulation and requirement it takes to open a factory, restaurant, car . . . .
I do, I work in HVAC and know it all so well. But I also know regulation and requirements are not a magic bullet nor do they protect universe from a random "bad leak." Not even sure what your point is here. Are you suggesting that "regulation" will prevent a mechanical failure? Or "requirements" prevent defects? Honestly, I am not even sure you can define what your point is.

when was the last time the "end user" had to hookup the fuel line from the tank to the injectors. most "end user" would have not idea of what i am talking about, and yes most will install incorrectly. that is why we have mechanics, plumbers, electricians . . . .
you do realize that the need for above professionals came into place is because the "end user" burn themselves. the reality is that then end user would not know how hot hang a tv on a wall.

you have no idea how much regulation, engineering and years of evolution was put into the gas tank or gas pump.
when you request to turn on your GAS at the residence. your GAS company sends a person to evaluate your system and appliances, and they check for leaks. this portable propane only has a ODS inside the unit. not only ODS is useless but you have no protection or knowledge if you get a leak at any point between the tank and ODS. and we are not even talking about propane gas and it's characteristics
your stationary gas water heater has more protection than this portable propane heater. Lot's of things can go wrong and the "end user" is just not equipped on diagnosing, fixing detrimental issues.

lol, you have no clue what my point is, yet instead of asking for clarity you hastily jumped on your soapbox.
my point is very simple: propane tank should never be located inside the residence.

LOL, if you consider attaching a 1lb propane tank to a little heater comparable to an involved automotive repair...clearly this might be too dangerous of a product for you.
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
1LB LP tank install knowledge required: Righty tighty, lefty loosey. Advanced users might even dabble in "hand tight" all the way to "snug."
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
Yes, I'd advise you to call a pro every time you need to swap out propane tanks around the house. Hate for you to burn yourself at the gas grill because you got confused how threading works or decided to do that next to your fire pit while smoking a cigarette.
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
If the TV and wall had matching threads, you might have a point. But I think hanging a TV requires permanent modifications to the existing structure as the TV and flat wall do not mate up by design
BTW, do you change your TV after every few hours of use?
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
Again, I work in a highly mechanical field. I know the difference between user serviceable parts, parts that require specialized training, and things that can only be done at the factory. Changing a propane tank is less complicated than changing the credit card paper at a gas pump. Even an error changing the paper could lead to a spark, which could cause a fire at a gas pump but do you think the every gas station calls a "professional" when the thermal paper needs changing? Now, changing the gas pump handle would require a technician and some pump manufacturers might even require factory training or the entire assembly to be swapped out for refurbishment at the "factory."
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
Prefect example of when you need a professional to come out. Now, call your gas company and request they change your 1LB LP tank....see what they say. Please record that phone call.
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
Who is talking about "diagnosing, fixing detrimental issues?" We are talking about CHANGING A TANK ON A LITTLE SPACE HEATER. LOL...wow.
Sorry you were right, this product is beyond some non "professional" end-users. You have proved that.
Like I said, you had no point and you still have failed to articulate one. But cute horse, mighty high horse however he is still cute. Did you hire a professional to install the saddle or did you feel like diagnosing and fixing such a detrimental issue yourself?
So all this talk about code, regulation, professionals, intakes, gas pumps, etc was all about that? Priceless. Clearly you should not be around anything flammable and dare I say, non-babyproofed houses?
If this process confuses you...then a "professional" is exactly what you may require.
Cars explode at gas stations...do you not pump your own gas?
BTW, the: you, me, you, me thing is really old. How many times do you do that per day? I've witnessed it a dozen times so far...always after your comments get voted down to the point of being hidden. Strange the little dance you do but, whatever makes you happy!

me: you don't want propane inside your house. it is a very obvious concept to understand
you: it's safe, i know everything, let me give you some irrelevant examples, and useless points

You: OMG PROPANE!!! IT IS GOING TO KILL EVERYONE ON EARTH UNLESS SOMEONE HAS BEEN TO SCHOOL TO USE A CAMPING STOVE! I FOUND A VIDEO FROM 2013 TO SHOW HOW OFTEN THIS HAPPENS!!!! *runs in circle panicking unless a "professional" shows up."
Best part? Every single one of those links were about propane devices that were NEVER RATED FOR INDOOR RESIDENTIAL USE. You are one of those who takes his charcoal grill inside his livingroom...right? LOL
Me: Bye bye.
(please no one tell this guy about the risk of pumping gas and static discharges)

You have a very strange definition of the word "fact," you keep using that word incorrectly. You feelings do not = facts.
According to you propane does not belong indoors because someone once misused an outdoor propane appliance. Outdoor gas grill accidents happen all the time...so no more cooking inside? That is your "fact" as you like to call it.
What is a "fact" is all that "regulation and requirements" that you were pounding your chest about....DO ALLOW PROPANE USE INDOORS AND WITH PORTABLE APPLIANCES DESIGNED AROUND INDOOR USE. That is a "fact" aka 'a piece of information presented as having objective reality.' (Bet you feel insulted right now) You setup "regulation and requirements" as some sort of monolith however now you know better than this flawless system
And yes yes yes, started it for you since this is the only way you can articulate your "facts." And I did not mean that as an insult however as an observation...or "fact" dare I say

Mine works good, plenty of heat. The pilot light is *very* sensitive. Wife says that's a good thing.
Update: While on hold with their support number for over 30 minutes, I surfed their website to find this product and i can't find a trace of it (even though the manual suggested it). I feel that I've made a mistake with this purchase
