Re: [RC] heating small space - April

You can also get a carbon monoxide alarm from Home Depot or the like
for about $50 or less.  Cheap insurance and we have one in our
slide-in camper all the time.

For interest's sake, we put ours in the horse trailer with the horses.
We used to use a stock trailer bumper pull. We got stuck in Atlanta in
a traffic jam on the way to Liberty Run last year and that thing went
off for almost the entire time we were in traffic.

Oh, another thing to use for warmth while awake..those hot hands
pocket warmers. You can get them for about 25 cents each if you watch
the sales. I slide one in each shoe and keep another couple handy for
sliding in my gloves. They work nicely.  They last 4-6 hours each.

Also, those skull caps that Lynn mentioned are great. I have 3
different kinds. A thin one I got from REI, a thicker one I got off an
internet website, and a thin face mask from REI. I can even wear 2 of
them together under my helmet without a problem. I hate being cold, so
I do everything I can to keep from it.

P.S. BIG rule. NEVER use charcoal or leave propane or something going in
a sealed space where you could be asphyxiated!  When I start up my
lantern I'm in the back of a 2 horse trailer that's pretty breezy due to
a place where I backed into a tree with the roof and it doesn't meet the
doors very tight.
