For most people who are used to urban living, camping can be an unwelcome experience because of the discomforts you may experience when camping. Going on camping trips doesn’t have to be a discomfort if you have the right gadgets with you. Most camping enthusiasts nowadays enjoy certain gadgets that help them to enjoy the great outdoors even more and makes a non-camper enthusiast comfortable as well. Gadgets like portable camping heater are popular nowadays because of its obvious function which is to keep you warm and cozy on a cold breezy night in the great outdoors.

Camp fires are a warm welcome when camping outdoors. However, they are not always the safest way to warm yourself up. There have been several cases of fires that were caused by camping fires. To avoid such incidents, a portable camping heater can replace the camp fire. Since it is portable, you will not have a hard time carrying it even if you go hiking up a mountain. Most manufacturers make it a point to use lightweight materials and design for it to be portable and efficient at the same time.

This type of portable camping heater not only keeps you warm on a cold chilly night but also provides you hot water when you need it. The newer the model is, the better for campers since new models are much more innovative compared to older models.  You can find the latest models for camping heaters online.

woodgas camp stove demo

Posted by Filed Under Portable Camping Heater with 25 Comments

peplers.blogspot.com I recently bought this woodgas camp stove to use for cooking when we’re in the woods, either working or just relaxing. It works by “gasifying” the wood, which means allowing in just a small amount of air at the base of the stove to partially burn the wood, converting it into a mixture of gases including hydrogen, methane and carbon monoxide (so don’t use it indoors!). These gases are then burnt in a second supply of air, injected at the top of the stove, right underneath the cooking pan. In use I’ve found it has several advantages: – It uses a very small amount of wood, yet will burn for 30-40 minutes – it lights easily (once you’ve got the hang of it) – once lit, you can basically just forget about it, apart from stirring your dinner – it’s easily portable – it’ll run for hours (I’d guess 15) off a pair of good rechargeable AA batteries (I use a solar panel to recharge them). I’d recommend one of these stoves to anyone who cooks outdoors regularly! Note, this is the “XL” version of the stove, there’s a slightly smaller version too, which is more portable, but burns with a tiny bit less heat and for a shorter time.
