It is one of the best camping heating units that currently available in the marketplaces at these days to purchase. There are pretty much positive reviews of this product on internet that you can explore more.

The weight is around 3-3/4 -pounds, it looks smaller in shape but powerful enough to produce around 3000 BTUs heat output for warming up a tent with 6-10 man. The unit heats the object with radiant heating mechanism, so thus the heater will heat the object directly (effective heating principle).

The unit works with a standard 1-pound cylinder of propane. Since it is more powerful on producing the heat output, we have to make sure that the unit is placed far away from any combustible materials at least 2 feet, and at least 6 sq-inches for the ventilation around the unit.

Blackcat unit is designed without an open-flame mechanism. Therefore it is better for tents and campers.

For better safety, it is more recommended to turn off the unit while not in use and only turn on the unit when actually needed.
