Product Description:

The expertly engineered size to BTU ratio is augmented with a fold down handle to give this heater maximum output while retaining a minimalistic footprint. A swivel regulator gives you the ability to adapt usage from a disposable cylinder to a remote gas supply with the purchase of a hose and filter. To light the unit, simply rotate the knob to pilot and push. Then the integrated Piezo sparking mechanism will take care of the rest. With the Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) and accidental tip-over safety shut-off you can be sure that you will enjoy years of comfortable indoor safe heat.
  • When operating the heater at altitudes over 7,000 FT above sea level the heater may shut off.

I've used this for our camping trip where it got to 38F at night and it was a life saver. Just know that it creates A LOT of moisture in the air.

These are great

The Big Buddy used to sell for this pre-covid, but this is still a solid price these days for the regular size one

Would it be cheaper to run this in the house with a larger cylinder instead of electric baseboard heating?

In the Amazon product description it doesn't specifically state that it's approved for indoor use. I'd like to make sure I could use this indoor for my basement. Would I still need to vent through a window?

You do NOT want to run this in a house on a regular basis. Water vapor is a by-product of the reaction. Beside, those little bottle of propane is very pricy.

If all you got is baseboard, look to your local utilities to see if there are any incentive for a heat pump.
