Subject:Power Cat versus Buddy Heater

Dear Friends

I've read the archives, done a lot of additional reading and am now trying
to decide between getting the Coleman's Power Cat heater or Mr. Heater's
Buddy Heater.

The Power Cat is 3000btu with fan, the Buddy heater is up to 9000btu with
no fan.

I am interested in anyone's experience with these two heaters.  Do you
think the fan does more than the xtra BTUs?

The additional benefit of the Buddy Heater is that it can be connected to
the Vanagon propane tank.  Does anyone have experience with actually doing
this?

I live in the Northeast, USA, and expect typical camping temps to be in the
teens.

Thanks for your input and Happy New Year,
Michael
