ok,,got a idea for a heater that has been rolling around in my mind,,,,bare with me,,,ya'll tear it apart or improve on it,,curious what yall can come up with,,
using a length of exhaust pipe bend a tight coil of maybee 14 to 18" dia. with the ends coming oway about 18" or so,,hook a length of flexible pipe to both ends,,,and put a filter or screen on inlet end and a light flex hose on the other,,somewhere in line cut in a small 12v blower or fan,,the flexible tube would be an inlet into a teardrop,,
concept is,,coil is placed in middle of fire ring or campfire,,,cool air is drawn in and heated by fire ond coals,,and blown or sucked into the camper,,,crack a window for good continuous flow,,,
I know it would have the potential of bad air coming in and I dont have answers to all these questions but its a concept,,see what yall can do wid it
