Biggest difference:

Hydroflame 12,000 btu: $350
Propex 6500 btu: $750

Half the heat for twice the money!

Yes, they're small and all, but when it's 20 below, I'd rather have
heat.

The 16,000 btu Hydroflame in the A'wagen makes camping in sub-zero
temps enjoyable. (If you don't open the door....) I suspect that it
would even keep a Westy toasty.

Pays yer money, takes yer choice.
