[QUOTE="Old Timer, post: 2361195, member: 24440"] Most small space heaters draw 1500 to 1800 watts. That would take a lot of solar cells to run it for just an hour. Little buddy makes 2 small heaters a 9,000 but and a 18,000 btu. You can get a conversion hose that will connect to a 20 or 30 lb bottle. The 18,000 will run for 3 days on a 30 lb bottle as long as it is not freezing cold. During this last weekend, it was not quite making the full 3 days. It worked great to keep a rent house warm enough to keep the water from freezing while it had no electricity. [/QUOTE]
