Thanks Brian - good suggestion on a small space heater, the basecamp is a small trailer so the interior will heat up quick even w a small unit, I experienced this in my very first outing w a Safari16 I rented to give the experience a try, took like 3 minutes to be toasty with the smallest portable heater you can imagine. I know the tank heaters run on
12 volt, but do they also use propane? I assume they do.. perhaps a good investment would be some some gauges for the propane tanks so I can get a feel for how much propane they are using. If I'm wrong about the propane let me know
