We all know the feeling – you’re out on a family camping trip, lying awake in your sleeping bag in the middle of the night shivering. You’re wearing all of the layers you have and you\u2019re still cold! Apparently, the extra money you paid for that “warmer” sleeping bag didn\u2019t pay off. Maybe you should have spent the money on a tent heater instead? Wait.. are tent heaters even safe to use inside a tent?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’d like to see if tent heaters are safe, I have an updated article here <\/a>where I actually found news stories showing some data of what can actually happen. <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The simple answer is, yes, a tent heater that is specifically designed for use inside a tent is, indeed, safe for use in a tent, or similar confined space, provided that you follow the manufacturer\u2019s specifications.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, many people are concerned that tent heaters are dangerous. It might, at first, seem unsafe to have a heat source inside your flammable tent. This definitely is the case. When it comes to the safety of tent heaters, it all depends on what model you buy and how you use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, I did a whole bunch of tests for heaters inside a tent to see if they were really safe or not–you can check out my video here for more details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
