Heat source options for tent camping.

Anyone using the diesel heaters in a tent as big as 12 x 20? mtmuley

A single diesel heater will not keep that warm. I've been using one in my garage and it takes the edge off but it's far from warm. For what you're doing, I'd go nu wave and wood stove

That’s only if you enjoy hating life splitting it. Never seen such a stringy wood before. Never again…

I removed a half mile long fence row of that. We split it all and burned it. The key is to let it dry for a year first before splitting. Then it pops apart like a firecracker.

That all went in an outdoor burner. Burned very hot, the door got really warped and had to be replaced by the end of the season.

Looking at the same thing myself
For me my plan is to use a wood stove.
I dont have any issues with using propane if it is a vented system. We use old Warm Morning stoves some and they work well. I just dont want to carry the propane or run out when im hours from any place that sells propane.
And at least for the areas I hunt out west wood is easy to get ahold of.
A small chainsaw will handle anything I need and its a good easy heat source.
