Alternative night heater

Hello,
Just out of interest.

If it's safe enough for a boat it may be suitable for a Land Rover, renewable fuel as well.

Great idea, though you do have to put a chimney through the roof :embarassed:

It could go out the side with a swivel chimney that drops for traveling. When I was going to build the FC into a camper, I fully intended to fit a stove.

So, who is going to be the first to make there own LR friendly version?

Looks interesting. Presumably the mentholated spirits used to light them helps keep the tubes clear?

Not sure I'd want one in a carawagon as it's pretty cramped and (I suspect) gets pretty hot.
