Anyone have one of these units?

I am always looking for a lighter less bulkier way to ice fish, and this would fit that category. I don't want to sacrifice comfort though. I have the little buddy heater right now and I find it a bit big. This one has about 7000 BTUs and the little buddy will max at 9000 BTUs, so they are pretty close to temperature.

 

Thanks,

i don't have that one, but it looks good! last year i was in the same predicament, so i got a 10,000 btu single burner for the top of a 1 lb tank. heats my 2 man IceCube hut in a matter of minutes on high, and keeps it that way on the lowest setting for hours! and i always keep the door cracked 12" or so to let out the fumes. one tank lasted me 3-5 trips on simcoe, usually 3-5 hours a trip. $40 at CTC

my cousin has one, it seems to be equivalent to my $80 coleman catalytic, maybe not as clean burning though

I picked up a used one of these Coleman Black Cat for $25.00 or so and it works great in my clam 2000 hut.

I've been quite comfy the last 2 years using a 3000 BTU in a 1 and a 2 man hut. With this one you'd probably be fishing in short sleeves. I might pick one up to try. At this $ that's a good deal. First thing would be to build a better base though
