your late friend picked you for a reason,good honest man!
Thank You I will not betray that trust. =Cosmo
Oh my gosh that is such a sincere compliment. I am sorry about the lost of your friend, I pray all the beneficiaries appreciate your hard work. I only have one quote in life. “Leave with integrity, it’s the only thing you can take with you to the grave”. As your friend left he knew he could because of your personal character.
Thank You I intend to do as good a job as possible or better,
Good words Valerie....when I think about every person I know, who has passed... I never think about their possessions.... It is only their character.... and whether that character consisted of integrity, or the lack thereof! :)
I'm a woman in her mid to late 60s, this teardrop is great, video was very informative, camping is so much fun.

I have a friend that camps in a teardrop trailer. Whenever he sets up in freezing weather, he puts skirting around his teardrop. He says it makes a huge difference in keeping the floor warm.
Thanks Seems like a good idea, I have a double floor. The bed is really a futon do I have an extra layer of wood with an air gap which helps. Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweemsvideos SUBSCRIBE czcams.com/users/cosmoweems

Thanks for the review on the heater. I once had a Mr Buddy - used it in my all aluminum camper and yes!!! EVERYthing was wet! Aluminum floor, etc! Sure didn't want to close everything up with all of that dampness..... Nice review.
Ya propane left me soggy. Much better now. =Cosmo
Just for info you might consider that propane vaporizes at -44 degrees F. The colder that bottle gets, the lower the gas output. The vaporization occurs from the sides of the tank, not at the liquid surface...so as you consume the propane the "gas" supply diminishes, therefore the BTU(s) available diminish. Also, keep in mind that the condensation that occurs in your trailer is of concern. Moisture is a big problem in RVs. Be sure to allow your trailer to fully ventilate and dry internally after use. 22 years as an RV technician in Alaska so I've had some experience with the cold.

What a nice guy, decent fellow and all that. Very nice review - a credit to New Yorkers!
First I have heard of this heater. Nice review. I currently use a wave3 with great success. My teardrop is very well insulated so even the wave3's 1600 BTU is too much. I turn it on and in about 5-10 min it's 80 deg. OAT 17deg. Because of how well the trailer is insulated i must turn it off and usually relight only one time during the night. Wall Sweating is not a problem for me because of the short operating time. I only wish it was thermostat operated like this one. A 4# propane tank lasts me a couple weeks. This one looks quite large and seems a little noisy though. Biggest advantage of the wave is it needs no electric. Enjoyed your story. Happy camping!
You must have been a good friend! I always say that doing good deeds for others will come back to you ten-fold as it might have happened here. I wish you the best and may God Bless you forever. :)

Cosmo, you seem like such an extraordinary person. I just love your personality, it makes me just want to hang out with you in your teardrop camper and talk about life. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, sending you positive thoughts and prayers. Even with all of what you are going through, and the weight on your shoulders, you just stay positive and keep doing your best with your new roles. You're in a penthouse, but you are still so humble and all you can think about is sleeping in your teardrop camper while testing the heater, and probably keeping your mind off of things. That is a great disposition to have. I'd be privelaged to have a friend like you. Best wishes, and here's to a positive new future! :)
Thank You Nicci. for your thoughtful comments. I get to meet some wonderful people on here. The penthouse is temporary. I will be out of there shortly.

The frozen or moisture on the metal is only metal that is in contact with the outside. The fender bolt the door seals. They are both outside and inside, Frost and moisture is just the fact of that scenario. Nothing wrong at all. Just the way it has to be. It was dry at the top because heat rises and was enough to keep the inside metal dried off. Good video love that heater.
Lucky you inheriting such an empire. Lifes good eah. Enjoyed your video.
Its not fun liquidating your best friends life. There are 20 beneficiaries. Half are charities such as animal welfare organizations and feed the hungry etc. Its an honor to do it for my friend.
He isn't inheriting it, he is the executor, the person who makes sure all of the decedent last wishes are fulfilled correctly. He may get a fee for doing it.

Excellent video. Good information. I run a Mr Heater a lot in both my 16 ft Scamp , in a wall tent, and in the back of my pick-up truck. In the Scamp I occasionally run it all night all night while sleeping and in the tent as well (depending upon ambient temp of course). In the pick up I run it in the evening, sleep, and then run it in the AM. Always with plenty of ventilation.
In fact, the Mr Heater has an automatic low oxygen shut-off feature so when O2 gets low it shuts down. Plus I have carbon monoxide and fire detectors in the Scamp. I've never had significant condensation probably because of more than adequate ventilation. Even during lengthy burns. So great heat and safe, in my opinion and the way I run it. The most negative aspect is the fact it throws off too much heat even set at 4,000 BTU (mine runs at 4,000 or 9,000 BTU).
However, I would like something thermostatically controlled or more adjustable so it could be set at a lower burn. And something more aesthetically pleasing that discharges to the exterior. Considering a Dickinson.
I was surprised at how much propane the Propex consumes. I've done a little research on them but missed that apparently. I can run the Mr Heater for probably a week on a 20-gallon tank even if it's used a lot. Very efficient compared to the Propex.
New York. Weird!! Like a different planet to me. I could survive in the wilderness but suspect I'd last about an hour in a city like that.
Consumption numbers were worst case - running 100% of the time. Thermostat lowers that drastically. Propex uses far less fuel than mr heater for that reason, czcams.com/video/V8OHRW98G5U/video.html Thank You! Check my other
videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweems SUBSCRIBE czcams.com/users/cosmoweems?sub_confirmation=1
If you're carrying 20 gallons of propane, anything would run on that for a lot more than a week. The 'Buddy' heater is barely more efficient than the Propex, but it is also not safe to use in a non-vented space. The Propex is 6500 btu ouput. Personally, I prefer forced air heat instead of radiant for campers. Radiant can't circulate, and there is only one barely-known radiant heater that is truly vented outside and safe to use in a closed camper.
Nice review, and the view from that penthouse, wow. You zoom in on the Empire, you looking at them looking at you looking at them. lol

Nice to be comfortable in there. Just so you know...a candle flame can keep you alive in sub zero temps. You'll be cold as hell but you won't freeze to death. When I would go to Northern Manitoba, I'd take candles and sterno just in case I broke down. I was told to do that by some friends that had that sub zero experience.
I Excellent point! carry about 20 Tea Light candles and 2 tealight lanterns in case I need to use them outdoors. I warmed the trailer from 30F to 40F in one hour. I think one candle produces 100 BTUs. Candles are reliable cheap and a good strategy Thank You! Check my other

That's a great little heater ! Very efficient !. My parents had an Airstream Bambi. (they were sorry they sold it) but it had a flat propane heater on the wall near the door. It would blow you out of the place ! It made so much heat ! It was only a couple inches wide and ..like a foot square. But you could see the flame travel from the bottom to the top of the heater...like with a wicking action. I thought it was weird, but it made heat, man did it make heat ! lol. Peace.

We can have plenty of wet cold days. And they sucks, goes right to the bone.
Hello there Cosmos! My sincere condolences about your friend. First time viewer here, that’s moved from the cold N. E. Of massachusetts to Sunny Florida after we retired. We have also had lots of nice camping experiences in heat and cold, I’ll be honest, I’ll take cold, not frigid cold but cold, over anything over say 75%, why? Well I sleep better in cool air all bundled up in a good sleeping bag, plus the heaters I use, either propane while no power available, or a very efficient electric Fake Wrought Iron Wood Burners, that weights very little, takes up little space, looks nice and warm like there’s actually a fire and has a ducted fan blowing out the bottom, that very quiet and helps keep the floor nice and warm. With that there is very little condensation created. The coldest trip we’ve made was from mass in January 4, 2018, where the first night at a WallMart in Easton Pa, the temp was down to 20%! We were on our way to Key West, but was so cold when we left I made sure there was a new battery and plenty of propane. Even with a steady wind, especially on the hill we parked where security told us to, we were both toasty all night! Even going to the toilet late at night, sure we had no running water, or water in the fresh tank, but you learn to adapt and what I did was flush with potable water mixed with RV antifreeze in a bucket, that you can use to do the dirty deed to rinse the pot out into the black water/poop tank, that keeps it from freezing till we get down south. Mind you there are no RV Parks open in the off season up north! But we were fine and on the second night at an open RV Park in N. Carolina that was still only 22%, the little fake woodstove was better than the noisier propane fan heater! So it’s nice to have site power! Those two systems have worked great, our little travel trailer is a Forest River Cherokee Wolf Pup 16FQ, that has a walk around queen bed and nice size dry bath, but only weighs fully loaded 4,300 lbs! So hey have fun out there and stay safe!

If a propane heater malfunctions it can produce CARBON MONOXIDE which is deadly. I would definitely get a couple of carbon monoxide detectors...two for redundancy.

The Propex heaters have multiple safety sensors, it is next to impossible for them to exhaust CO into the heated air.
Hi Cosmo, Thanks for the review. I have a camp inn 550 without the furnace option so use a ceramic heater when I have hook ups and recently bought a little buddy. One thing I find is that the warm air definitely stratifies - it's like going through thermoclines if you are a scuba diver. To address this, I got a small clip on USB fan that I aim at the ceiling. It's just enough to push that warm air down to the bed level.
Hi Ben. I have a ceramic and Lil Buddy too. With Lil buddy I had to keep the top vent open which did suck the hot air up and cold air was pooling on the floor. It was very noticeable. Since this heater vents to the outside I can keep the roof vent closed that creates a bubble of warm air that collects and fills the cabin. Vistabule has vent ports at floor level I can crack if I need air (in addition to roof vent and windows). My point is - its working! Probably works same way for you with the electric heat. THANK YOU!

I have not been on the road for months and wanted to touch on what was going on and the reason why I was not on the road. Thanks Stephanie! Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweems SUBSCRIBE czcams.com/users/cosmoweems?sub_confirmation=1

I wish you all the best with your executor duties...that's a lot of work and he must have been a very good friend! I especially can't imagine doing the commercial property thing...a friend of ours is still trying to unload his inherited commercial property after many years...hopefully his was an unusual situation.
Happy New Year Alice, Thanks for your wishes. I am on this like a Mongoose on Cobra. Its ironic I strive to spend my time in nature and now I am in the belly of the beast, I am making the best of it and meeting lots-O-nice people and especially nice dogs. I think its time to take Ranger shopping. czcams.com/video/cSIx1yC_Iyk/video.html

Make a couple of “sashes” with some old socks filled with kitty litter, they will absorb the ambient moisture and help keep your surfaces dry. Learned it because I sleep in my car when I travel.
Does that take enough moisture out of the air so the windows don't fog up?
It does for me in my Mazda 3. I went a little overboard and filled 3 socks, two for the dash near the windshield and one on the center console. I use the kitty litter Crystal type, I can’t remember the brand, but I bet you can google it for the name of the ingredients
@@valerief1231 thanks. Ill try it.
this man and this video is absolutely fascinating! thank you.

we have been out in ours in 20 below and it was with an electric heater with a thermostat and it was fine.. funny storie the reason why we ended up with a heater with a thermostat is because we needed to open the doors it was so hot in the camper with no thermostat in 20 below weather, so it can definitely be done..no problem .. sorry to hear about your buddy.. sounds like a million dollar house.. hell of a view..
for me who born and live at borneon tropical climate, living in foot of a mountain or on top of a hill or at seaside which could get temp under 20 degree C is very cold. so for those who could live at such temp, thumbs up for you.

One of the better videos I have seen lately. I don't normally subscribe based on one video, but I did this time. I've been around diesel units, had no idea there was a propane based heater on the market.
Thank You . Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweems SUBSCRIBE czcams.com/users/cosmoweems?sub_confirmation=1.
Your problem is moisture if you stayed in there for a week, water would be dripping off the walls. If you open the window to cut the moisture then you would use more propane..
Naaa Moisture control in this trailer is the best I have seen. Mr heater would put 20 ounces of water per pound i of propane burned into the air, One night and the walls would be dripping., Not so with my setup. You do have to deal with accumulated dampness over time. But that is easy to do (for my setup). Thank You.

Maybe you should invest in a custom camper and have adequate spray foam insulation installed. It's light weight and efficient in winter and summer.

Sweet trailer!! Sounds like the heater works pretty well. I know how you feel, i just lost my best friend on jan. 20 and i'm still reeling. I hope you take care of your mental well being, it's no fun doing what you're doing i know!! Be well sir!!

Nice vid Cosmo. I viewed your other production on the Propex and it, plus others convinced me to buy one for my InTech Explore mini toy hauler. I've just had it installed a week but here in the Ohio valley, we too have had extremely cold temps. In my limited experience, I agree that the forced air furnace is the way to go. I too have a Mr. Buddy and damp heat is uncomfortable. Thanks for the update and best wishes in the concrete forest.
Thanks for the feedback Mark, I am very happy with the Propex. I agree humidity is really bad especially when combined with cold weather. When stepping outside from an indoor propane burn I feel wet and chilly. One pound of propane brurning puts out 20 ounces of water. Regards =Cosmo
I didn't see the bondage straps in the vestibule brochure that must be something you special-ordered! LOL

The products of complete combustion (which you should get if you are using a propane heater properly) are carbon dioxide and water. The heater you built in vents those products to the outside air. The Buddy heater does not vent those products to the outside. That carbon dioxide and water are vented inside the heated area. There is no water in propane unless the place that filled the tank has a very significant problem. The water that condenses on the walls when using a heater not vented to the outdoors is the inevitable product of the combustion process. Propane is not a wet heat. Combustion is a water producing process.
I agree.I stated much of that in the second video. Thank you. Check my other videos czcams.com/users/cosmoweems SUBSCRIBE czcams.com/users/cosmoweems?sub_confirmation=1
I like to test out my gear near home too, so that I know I can count on it in the field when I need it.
I tested my 20° bag out in 19° weather one night...
I was miserable, but I survived.
Food advice which I follow. Thank You Check my other

Sometime in very cold area the propane will not vapourise due to the cold and your heater will not work . Need to keep your tank warm and pipes use low volt electric banket around tank .
Low volt electric space heater might be better as back up.
You should not use a mr buddy in an enclosed small enironment it does say thatninbthe instructions also mr buddy giveva min sqm for use.
Put insulation on the floor.

Propane will vaporize to -44F. If I am out in that weather I will have to solve some other issues too. I primary camp off grid. Propane is the best fuel for what I am doing,
Just a suggestion. You can easily get a 20 lb. propane tank and effectively double your capacity. On most travel trailers they have twin tanks on the trailer tongue. Just get one of the tank racks and mount it to your tongue. Now you have a week worth of fuel and no issues with storage.
Thanks the issue is the tongue weight. I am at the high end now and a bigger tank would put me over the limit. I can carry a small additional tank if I need to . Check my other
