When it comes to camping tent heaters, there are electric & propane tent heaters for camping. The big company in portable tent heaters is Coleman. I'll show you which ones to buy, why, and where to get them cheap, on sale, and at discount prices.

Besides Coleman, companies like Mr. Heater and Nato make popular tent heater models as well. Like any consumer product, you'll have to assess your needs and budget and choose accordingly. What size is your tent or the indoor area you'll be using the tent heaters in? Does your tent have a vent, etc...

A big concern about tent heaters is safety. People want to know how safe tent heaters are and if there are models that are safer than others. Camping tent heaters that are made for indoor use will be rated as such. This "for indoor use" rating should definitely be a requisite if you plan on using it indoors or in a tent.

Duh, I know. But you still have to look for the exact language on the models you're considering. Don't just assume that because is says tent heater on the package, that it's safe for indoor use. Or, what precautions or special instructions are given in the proper use of the heater you're thinking about buying.

Like I said, the most popular tent heaters on the market are Coleman tent heaters.  Of, the various Coleman heaters, the ProCat, BlackCat, and SportCat models are the most popular camping tent heaters they have available.

All the models are perfectemp catalytic propane heaters.  This provides flameless heat!  Also, they all utilize Coleman's Instastart technology which uses an electric ignition to start the unit faster and more reliably than with a match.  The ProCat tent heater has an option to accept batteries to to power an internal fan to aid in heat circulation.

Coleman also makes a GolfCat which fits in most cup holders.  Like the other heater models, this one is just as portable and effective at keeping you warm on those cold nights outdoors!

Mr. Heater is another popular brand of tent heaters.  They have the Big Buddy, Little Buddy, and Portable Buddy Heaters.  Although all the models have handles and are very portable, only the Mr. Heater Little Buddy is clearly stated as indoor-safe.

It's rated for rooms up to 100 sq. feet.  It's odor-free and can heat up to 5-1/2 hours.  The Little Buddy Heater uses 1-lbs. disposable propane cylinders.  Also, a low-oxygen sensor and accidental tip-over switch with auto shut-off is included in this indoor heater model.

The other models seem very powerful and can be powered with AC or battery power for fan heat circulation like the Big Buddy.  So, definitely take a close look at the exact product specifications.
