[QUOTE="Happystamps, post: 604028, member: 14679"] As per Bullet Tooth's response, I'm afraid. you can use a 1kw fan heater with an electric hookup on a campsite, but trying to run it off a leisure battery is a mug's game. For when you're off-grid, you've got the following options: -Light hobs. Effectively free, might die of CO poisoning/fire. -Camping Gas heater. £30/thereabouts, same downsides as the above. -Propex- Runs off gas, perfectly safe if fitted, serviced and used properly, 2kW output and reasonable battery life. About £200 second hand or what- £500 new? Take a look on VWH. -Eberspacher- Runs off petrol/diesel, same details as the propex, you'll likely be looking at about 2kw output but you can get bigger ones. Same cost roughly second hand, more new (£800 or so?) -Alcohol- Fairly cheap, fun at first, can become an issue in prolonged winters. Need to wee a lot. [/QUOTE]
