Need help in trying to find a heater for our camp house. I was looking at propane heaters, but my wife is worried about using gas, but they do have high btu output. So I looked at a few electric heaters, but the btu's aren't very high. I have two milkhouse heaters from Wally World I bought last year to get us by and they did as long as we had both of them in the same room with a blanket over the door between rooms. Looking at Vornado DVTH heaters with more air circulation, but still only a little over 5k btu's. Open to suggestions. Maybe a small woodburning stove?

On my family's place we have a potbelly stove in our camp house and it gets the job done but I really dont like it b/c of the smokey smell, when bowhunting I have to leave all my hunting clothes in the truck while I am there.... I would have no problem getting one of the new fangled "blue flame" propane heaters with thermostat and fan built in.... -
I have looked at a couple of the blue flame heaters, but everyone I have found says it needs a minimum of 100lb tank. And are they safer?Comment

I dont know anything about the Vornado heaters so to say that the blue flame is safer, I couldn't...
I know the blue flames are made for indoors, all the old deerborns were replaced with them.... I am assuming they are perfectly safe for indoors, I was looking at a smaller one for my girls box blind to run off a 5 gal. tank... I would assume they should be somewhat efficient but the big propane tanks should not be too hard to find, I wouldnt think... If so, just take a few of the 5 gal. tanks with you..Comment

How big of an area do you need to heat? we have window AC units that also have heat in them. they work great. Last year when it was 6 degrees, our cabin was 72+Comment

We have two 12x12 rooms, pretty small, but they get really cold. We do have electical, so the a/c-heater would probably work perfect. I am going to look at those.Comment
