WIN100 Heating & Cooling Programmable Outlet Thermostat Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I use this thermostat to turn on and off an attic fan when temperatures get too high. I've found that every few months mine needs to be turned off and reset, or the fan will just run continously. This is no big deal for my purposes, but if you use it for applications where temperature control is critical for keeping animals or plants alive, check it periodically or buy a more expensive unit.

Mr Heater F276172 1-Pound Disposable Propane Tank Refill Adapter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For safety concerns just use the source tank valve for on/off control...To fill each 1 lb. bottle more completely simply put those containers in a refrigerator or even a freezer for a few minutes AND put the 20/40 lb. FULL tank in hot water and/or in the Sun...The key here is to maximize the pressure in the source tank and minimize it in the receiving 1 lb. bottle allowing for more propane to transfer before the pressure equalizes...I've been filling these little bottles for years using this type coupler and while they may not get 100% filled as when new they can reach 80-90% with regularity when the above steps are taken...Keep in mind NO Propane tank is completely filled anyway or at least it shouldn't be to allow for excessive heat expansion when full..

Even if trying to refill in a freezing or below environment simply heating the 20/40 lb. bottle up by leaving it in a heated indoors for a few hours and/or in hot water will help tremendously to get more transferred...

When you get tanks refilled commercially the source has pump assisted pressure so this always allows for a complete fill...

Coleman BlackCat PerfecTemp Catalytic Heater Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this from a retail box store for a little more than it is going for here on Amazon for an early season camping trip just 2 weeks ago. It looks great and performs very well.Right out of the box, the two legs that hold it up kept collapsing. I had to tighten each of them up with a phillips screwdriver.It stayed up with no problem after that.It lights almost instantly with a match (more on that later) by holding it against the outside of the ring.For the first while, it was burning off the factory 'oils', etc, so I was a bit stinky.After that, it was fine.I recommend running it outside of your sleeping space for 5 to 10 minutes to get that initial stink out.
It will heat for around 7 hours on the high setting with one standard size bottle of propane. They do not recommend that this be connected to a full size propane tank.
Really the only problem that I had with the unit as a whole was that fact that there was no electronic ignition on it. You have to light it outside of the sleeping space with a match/lighter. I would have bought the one with the built in igniter, if the store had it in stock. Otherwise it works great.

Texsport Propane Heater Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this heater 3 months ago and it worked fine at first.I hadused it about 20-30 times when it began decreasing in its heat output until only the high setting would keep the unit running (the thermocouple would not sense enough heat on the med and lo settings).Not wanting to deal with the hassle of sending it back and having some experience with these things I accessed the main jet and carefully cleaned it and the threaded chamber it's in, reassembled but to no avail.Same sluggish operation. Long story short, I disassembled deeper into the unit being carefull but in the end, I scrounged some parts off another heater and got it working properly.This is an example of another pc. of huooey from China.Too bad, it's the only heater like it out there taht I know of...appropriate for certain tasks.

Garden Sun Floor Standing 44,000 BTU Propane Powered Patio Heater With Push Button Ignition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this heater for around $200 on Amazon. Build quality is good but not excellent. It has all the features of units that cost twice as much. The packaging and instructions were very good. It works well in zero to light wind on our deck, but when the wind picks up forget about and go back inside. I have yet to burn an entire 20 lb. bottle of LPG, having used the heater several times, so it appears to be pretty easy on the wallet to operate. Make sure you anchor the unit to the deck or ground. Ours blew over and bent the "top-hat" in a "L" shape. It bent back pretty good but now has a crease in it. Not much else to say. Good luck.

Coleman SportCat PerfecTemp Catalytic Heater with InstaStart Technology Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I didn't have any design or function problems with my unit, at all.It worked fine right out of the box.For my purpose (heating a tent or a small bedroom in case of a power outage), I'd buy it again (and the price is right).BTW, the Winter temps in northwest WA are usually pretty mild at sea level, so although the 1500 BTU output isn't much, it is all I need.

The very first time I lit my unit, I was puzzled why it took 5 or 6 clicks of the insta-start spark to light it, even though Coleman predicts this in their instructions.By telling you to start clicking the spark right after opening the valve, I suspect Coleman is making sure you don't let a large amount of propane build up before you hit the button.In other words, I suspect it takes the same amount of time to click the starter 5 or 6 times as for the unit to build up enough propane to light.When it does, there is a small poof of blue and yellow flame.True, if you waited a few minutes after you open the valve to click the starter, one click might be enough to light the unit, but you might also lose your eyebrows (or worse).

One thing for sure... run your heater outside or maybe in your garage for a LONG time when it is brand new.In fact, I'd say use up a whole container of propane to break it in.The reason for this is that the smell this heater puts out when it is new is nasty!Ever get a rug stuck in the rotating brush of your vacuum cleaner, and the rubber drive belt starts to smoke?Well, it's like that smell TIMES TEN!I couldn't find any mention of the odor or warnings about toxicity in the Coleman booklet, so Coleman must not think is is harmful.But, believe me, it sure is unpleasant and Coleman should mention the idea of "breaking in" the heater when new.After I ran about 3/4 of a tank of propane through my new heater, the smell was completely gone.But, fair warning... break this puppy in, before you bring it inside with you.

Otherwise, no complaints, and I'd buy it again and recommend it to you.Stay warm out there!
