Hi Thanks for all the info about the Vornado heater that's what we will try.
Another Question Is it safe to leave the heater run all night while you are sleeping. My wife don't thing we should do that, what does everyone think? Thanks.....

Do it all the time. Just make sure it's clear of anything flammable.
What is her concern?

Hi Gray Fox,
If fire is a concern go for an oil filled unit. The surface temperature is much cooler, so there is much less risk of fire.
I run mine 24/7 during cold weather.

More than likely the heater will have "over heat" shut off protection and tip over shut off protection.
We do run ours at night from time to time, but put it up on a counter so that the dog can't tip it over if she decides to wander around.

One of the features we like besides heating the trailer well is that the outside does not get hot to the touch. The only hot area is directly in front where the heat comes out. The rest of the unit gets just warm at best.

We use ours most of the time when heat is needed. Ours is a thermostatically controlled Pelonis heater. MUCH quieter than the furnace.

We do run ours through the night but we are careful to place it where it can't be knocked over by pets or near flammable materials. Happy Camping!!
