Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
I will have to say breakfast burritos for sure as a 1st meal. Cobbler and/or Dump cake as a desert after at least one dinner. Dinner meals vary but we always feel spoiled if there is a grilled steak involved...
So my buddy let me know he found a place to have the tanks recertified with new valves. He was told to use the tanks till they were emptied, then he could get the empty tanks recertified for $75 but that would include a full tank of propane, or he could trade them in at any reseller but would...
Does anyone know how long propane can sit in a tank and still be useful? A buddy of mine recently bought a pop-up camp trailer, probably from the 70s - 80s, and it had some of the 30lb tanks full strapped onto the tongue. They worked when he tested the stove in it, and I'm reasonably sure his...
Not sure what the BTU output of the burner is, but it may be too high. I’ve had stainless steel turkey fryers that burn at 60k BTUs but most of the Camp Chef burners stick to the 30k BTU range. The higher output burners were designed to be used with large steel kettles and flame tamer shields...
Just bought awning tarp material for my 180 degree awning and shower stall. Will be putting them together this weekend (Labor Day) while everyone else is getting their “last camp out for the year in”.
my diesel heater should arrive this next week, so the trailer should be ready for a trip the...
I remember when the stun guns started becoming available to the public and I bought one for my wife. I took it to work to “show the fellas”. One of my coworkers wanted to try it out. I guess he completely forgot about his steel-toe boots and zapped himself in the foot with it. He may still...
I have not seen food storage hanging in a tree since the Boy Scouts, that has been 30+ years ago. These days, I keep the food coolers and dry boxes in the truck shell, in my case a metal contractor shell. Definitely not in my tent with me. I do also keep bear spray, and a .357 within reach...
Just ordered a diesel heater for the rtt. Been racking the brain on how to heat the sleeping area with heat that won’t deplete a battery overnight or cause condensation. Hopefully this will do it. My Son got one last year for his camp trailer and raves about it. My truck is a diesel, so I...
Belt knife (current favorite is a custom hand forged full tang made by a friend-knife maker - Harry Black from Boise “ Boise Blacksmith” on my hip, machete (Cold Steel) under the back seat, long handle axe and bow saw in the tool box of the rig and a small (14”) chain saw in the truck bed when...
These come with what looks like a tiny muffler, but the vids I’m watching seem to indicate the ticking of the fuel pump is the loudest and part that most users are noticing. I also see that some folks are choosing to upgrade the fuel pump with aftermarket pumps that appear to be much quieter...

Here is the link to the one I ordered, straight from Walmart.com. I chose this model because the heat output splits the heat into 4 potentially different directions that would allow me to heat different tent spaces like the tent, annex, an awning tent area...
Agreed, and I second your sentiment on expensive gear maintenance. I am holding some high performance expectations for this heater. Like others have iterated, I hope to ensure comfort for the Mrs. as well as myself. A warm, dry heat source will hopefully go a long way towards ensuring a...
Thanks and I will post some feed back once I get a chance to test and use it. I have high hopes, as these types of heaters were designed for RVs and travel trailers.
I ordered a 5KW diesel heater that uses a 12V power source to use as a camp/tent heater. I’m seeing good reviews. I know there are smaller units, but I could not find one that was 2KW and is self contained in a box with a fuel tank. The one I ordered also comes with a key fob remote and the...
