I plumbed our Big Buddy in to the low pressure propane line that was left after I removed our 30+ year old refridge.... The Big Buddy has a quik connect that makes it really easy. We use ours when parked in ski resort lots. Very efficient. The Big Buddy also has a built-in fan that runs on battery. Helps dispurse the heat around our 24 foot moho. Heats it fine on low or med. unless it's really cold (-15 or below) or hi winds. Then we need it on hi. We love ours. It will pay for itself this winter in our savings on propane usage compared to teh furnace. That thing eats propane!

The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just...

Well I really started something here thats great. I have never used my heater except to try it when I got it several years ago. I tried it in our 31ft 5er at about 25-30 degrees in about an hour it was bumping 70. We are planning a trip to Alaska next year in the TC and thought I might carry it. We were gone 2 mos last year in the North West and down into Northern CA and wish I had thought to carry it then it was quite chilly part of the time.
