I love early mornings to watch the sunrise! This little thing has a great heat output ru-vid.comUgkxAvrAfikbUEMthp3AZ6iX5FKdiHfzy_RP . I sit in my rocker, warm, and watch the sunrise! It's great for travel as well. Just stow and go. Love this thing! For hunters, I've heard that they also make a little hood so that it focuses the heat a bit more if you have to sit further away. Just a heads up. It's so easy and quick to set up and get going.

Last year, we were at my grandson's first high school baseball game of the season. IT WAS COLD! I had never seen this heater, but several other families had theirs running and I got a quick education. I went out the next week and bought the Big Buddy heater from Home Depot. I have heated our garage several times so the GK's can play ping-pong on cold days. I'm glad I bought the bigger size for this reason. We use a little wagon to load our chairs and supplies for the games and this will fit perfectly so should not be size issue to take along. Also, I like the use of the paint grill for heating up water for hot chocolate. Txs for the tip! I also bought the extension hose with a filer (I found a good selection at Farmer's Supply) so I could use the 20lb tank. Ordered the fan that attaches to the back of the heater on-line. It was a perfect fit (never really understood why they stop selling them on the heaters automatically) and runs off batteries or an adapter (also @ F'sS). It blows the heat away from the front and is really worth it in my opinion. Thanks for the video comparison! Can't wait for baseball season to begin here in a couple of weeks!

I have the Little Buddy. Used to have the Mr. Buddy but I left it at a jobsight and it was taken. I want a Big Buddy. I love this line of heaters. I had mine for yrs and never had a problem at all. Even if you have no other need for them at all they are well worth the money just to have for power outages and emergencies.

I have the Big Buddy. I plan on using it in my garage, camp trailer, and in cases of power outages. I had cause to use it for the first time this last week when our power went down in an ice storm. It worked great. The two things that I see so many posts on, are the use of the fans on top, and the lines coming from a large tank. And I am confused by them both. I bought two types of fans, one has dual fans, and the other has a pivotal head. I haven't really noticed much improvement on the heat circulation. So, I don't know if I am expecting too much, or am not using them correctly. The hose attachment for a larger tank posts, leave me confused as well. People say that material from some hoses will clog the pilot light. They promote the use of a fuel filter with the hose. Other people, and MR. Heater say that the hoses sold by Mr. Heater will not. I have bought two types of hoses. The screw on type, and a quick connect/disconnect style. Both are from Mr. Buddy. I suppose the add-on filter couldn't hurt. I have also bought the Carbon Monoxide alarm, even though Mr. Buddy says you don't need to worry. Anyway, thanks for your informative video's. I learn from each one. Happy New Year to you and yours.

I have two little buddy heaters, 4000-9000btu, I have created a stand with fan, I heat 600sf off of it. It's all in the air distribution, I also have run it off of a 100# (25gal) bottle, it heated for a month and a half, off of my 10 gal propane tanks (rv) I can run it for almost 3 weeks. Trick is, drain it out after each use, do not let propane sit in your hoses, and always use filters! I bought both of mine for $59.00 three years ago... Also don't forget your can of compressed air to blow out the lines if they get clogged....

Then it should start back up.

It's better to be safe and ready. With these storms hitting across the country it's a nice feeling to know we have a means to stay warm.

Many, Many Thanks Cohen for all you do to keep us informed! 😊Please know that I have been researching these heaters for sometime now and found the written descriptions hard to understand. So, your presentation today, really made things clear!! My concern now, however, is storage of the propane! Where I live it gets in the triple digits in the summer! For safety sake, I don’t want any fires or explosions! Do you have any propane storage suggestions for Hot summers?
@sunshinelady960
@sunshinelady960 Год назад
I store my tanks outside. I have a little tool shed & I place them where it’s the NE inside the shed. I also live southern state where we have hot summers so they be just fine. Never put them near the house or garage.
@starwoan5970
@starwoan5970 Год назад
Thxs for taking the time to reply! When I can afford to buy or build a shed will do so. In the meantime, I am considering buying a trash can and burying it in the ground for storage and doing so with several others for use as root cellars as the house gets too hot! It is suggested that I put cement bricks around the trash can(s) and leave the lid(s) above ground. So that water will not seep in.

I have a Big Buddy at our cabin and was surprised that he didn’t mention the battery powered or DC adapter fan that is built in. I use it to start heating the living room until I can get the wood stove up to heat. I also use it connected to a 20 lb tank outside the cabin rather than the small bottles. This way I can light it and let the wood stove die down overnight.

I love my Big Buddy for shop heat. I have a 3 car garage with the 3rd stall being the shop and it heats it just fine. I ran the hose outside the garage and use a 20 lb external tank. (never use these larger tanks indoors). What you didn't mention is that you can buy an AC adapter to run the fan continuously to better push out the heat without running down batteries. (the fan is kind of noisy though) . The 18,000 BTU setting makes a lot of heat but uses a lot of propane so after a few minutes I usually switch to medium or low. Even when it's freezing outdoors I can work comfortably in the shop.

I have the big buddy heater, and upgraded to the flex for ice fishing. It was a pain in the butt to get it running from the start. Took 40+ minutes to get the pilot light to stay lit. Worked alright after that but this winter was a different story and I couldn't get it to stay lit once. Took it apart and cleaned it wasn't even dirty still didn't work. Hooked propane tank up to the big buddy and worked just fine. So long story short the Flex was not a good upgrade for me still do t know what's wrong..

Hope you all like burning thru 1lb. Canisters at $5 each for 4 hrs. My Lil Buddy died every morning like clockwork on a 20 lb. tank. Had to bleed the line and tip the tank upside down. After 3 months of this, it died completely. No it wasn't the Oxygen sensor. Had the windows cracked open. The regulator was crap from the beginning. So I bought a single burner Coleman stove and put a heat reflective shield behind the burner. It's less heat which is great because I'm 80% insulated.

I just bought the big buddy for emergency heat as it is below zero here in NW Arkansas today and for a few more days. I am concerned because it keeps cautioning you about ventilation. If I open a window it defeats the purpose of having it in the house. So, how do you get adequate ventilation? Also it warns against using the 20 lb propane tanks in the house. Just want to be safe if the power goes out. The heater systems here are HVAC and do not work well in weather below 40! It is all they have here in Arkansas. The heater runs constantly and blows out cold air. So I really need a back up to work properly.

Question: if you use the big buddy with a 20lb tank do you have to plug in two of them (one to each side) to make both sides of the big buddy heater to work. if you only use one side will only one side heat up?

Hey Colin I'm considering getting the flex because It puts out a little more heat than the Little buddy I have AND I'm hoping it might burn a little cleaner. Three times I've tried to sleep with the Buddy and Ive gotten sick. It's not carbon monoxide (I have a detector) It's just the smell/fumes that seem to irritate me. I was told the blue flame LP heaters are less likely to cause this, but they are a little too big for an ice fishing tent. Do you have any thoughts on this? Thanks :)

Has anyone else had problems with the filter when using a 20lb tank? I've bought two and I can't get a heater to run with them. Even when all components (heater, hose and filter) are brand new. Haven't come across any mention of this on RU-vid. Should I just keep buying filters until I get a good one? Cold and frustrated
