The Big Buddy is rated at 18,000 BTU and comes with a fan.  Think this
more than required?  It adds about 3" each  to the height, width,
depth.

I have a Coleman Powercat rated at 3,000 BTU and it definitely is not
warm enough.

I have not put aluminum bubblewrap insulation around the upper tent of
the Westy yet.  Someone recommended this.  However, I'm thinking that
maybe it will be kind of inconvenient to set up  in actual use?  Maybe
a big heater will be more convenient?

BTW, the standard place to put these things is on the main cabin floor
in back of the two front chairs, right?

I'm kind of deciding between getting a bigger heater and using the
Powercat with more insulation.  The advantage of the powercat is that
I think it may be safer.

Even the Portable Buddy has 3X the heating power of the Powercat.  the
Big Buddy has 6X.
