The main thread is how to heat a small trailer for shoulder season camping. Recently we were having dinner with friends ( the husband is an over the road trucker ) and he mentioned using his " bunk heater " to stay warm . He drives in Idaho, Washington and Oregon so often has to overnight in single digit temps . Apparently most trucks that have sleepers also have bunk heaters . They run on dielsel and 12v power . Seems to me ( often wrong but never in doubt ) this might work for our campers ? It wouldn't take much to make a small diesel container to be mounted outside the trailer and I bet the 12v usage is minimal or one could rig the unit with a small refrigerator or computer fan that would draw minimal 12v power . They must be safe for confined spaces as , for what I see visually , most sleepers are probably as small or smaller than our fiberglass campers . Now let the naysayers begin, Positive comments are also allowed. Lee
