After reading the posts on this little propane heater
I went looking last week and found them at Dick�s
Sporting Goods; $99 for the standard (no fan) one and
$139 for the larger one with a fan.  While standing at
the display, a guy mentioned he found the same thing
rebadged at Lowe�s (home improvement center, may be
regional) for less money, so we checked there and
found the Mr. Heater standard for $75 and bought it.

It�s about the size of a shoebox (hiking boot box,
actually), takes a standard 1 lb. propane cylinder and
works pretty well for taking the chill off on those
low-30s, high-20s nights and mornings.  Out of
caution, we did not run it all night.  Even though the
device features a low-oxygen cutoff, we figured it was
safer not to risk it.  In retrospect, I think it might
have been worth the risk.  I have not slept that cold
in a long time, so my other gear may require some
tweaking before the next jaunt.

Thumbs up on the heater, though.
