Worth the money - definitely

I feel stupid for not discovering this addon sooner. Easy to install, I use two seasons. It definitely saves the propane. It even works decently if you only have 120v but don't expect it to keep you warm on a 20 degree winter day, plus it will keep you warm on those chilly autumn nights. As you'd expect, it works very well with a 30 amp connection if you can get the full current through it. Remember to clean before use after a long period of inactivity, even if you only use compressed air to…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Negative gift

Worth every penny Best in HVAC category

Worth every penny if you're going to perform in the cold. I installed them in my Coleman Mach AC units. You will also need a new control board. You determine which thermostat control board. They say they're just taking out the cold, but when they both turn on my electric fireplace, the stove won't turn on at 19 degrees. I would definitely buy again. If you want to save money you can simply add a few items to your control board, but it's dangerous to wire it wrong. It can even pose a fire hazard

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Great addition for the price

I really like this device. Still keeps the camper warm to 30F. Good air movement dries out condensation and mold. I would not recommend using it as the sole heat source in cold weather or for hobo work as it is a significant element of energy and then a large AC fan is added. doesn't feel "hot" because the AC fan is moving so much air. Feels cool when it's off because of the fan. In fact, as expected, the heating is good and the air movement is deceptive. I bought it and found that my ceiling…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • So far so good

The most convenient heater for a camper

Disadvantages: does not blow hot air. Advantages: excellent additional heating. At the AC switch. This heater tape was the best electric heater I have bought for our caravan life. We've basically left it on all fall and winter (about 6 months so far) and haven't had any issues with it. It blows warm air because it's not particularly powerful, but it probably saved us hundreds of dollars on propane. You might think you don't want to buy this because it doesn't blow hot air (I thought so), but if

Pros
  • Convenient thing
Cons
  • Possibility of replacement
