It looks like I will be very toasty in the van this winter! I just received my new Camco Olympian Wave 3 heater. This is a catalytic heater that produces radiant heat instead of flame, so it’s much safer to use. I chose this model because it doesn’t run as hot as the Mr. Buddy heaters and it seems like it’s better quality. It’s rated from 1600 to 3000 btu’s and perfect for the van. I also bought a 5′ low pressure gas regulator and legs for the floor stand. I bought everything from Walmart and paid around $250. The next item to buy will be the propane tank. I am hoping to use the little 1 pounders if I can, but will get a small 2.5 gal tank soon. I hope to test the heater in a couple of weeks using the 1# can, but will buy the bigger one if I have to.
Moving on!
