get a european caravan (camper) heater. they suck in from below the body, and exhaust through a stack at the top, they use no fans, and are freaking screwing hot.
OK, I need everyone to sit down. Calm yourself. Maybe fix a stiff drink. I have something shocking to tell you...
Yes, I'm as sane as normal...
No, I'm not being held at gun point...
Yes, I've thought about it a lot and I've decided...
I'm
NOT going to install a Diesel heater.
It's OK, it's OK, relax. I know nobody here would ever expect those words to come out of my keyboard, but it's true. The one that's in there is rated for 36,000BTU and works just fine so I'm going to leave it alone other than a tune-up and replacing the thermostat just because I hate the little power switch that's on it.
Really, I'm fine. ?
then it isn't working right, any adsorption fridge I have had (8 in the last 40 years) will freeze your pop overnight if you set it too low.
I've had many absorption fridges in my life and while they will get cold, they never get cold quick. When I was a kid we had one that we'd take camping and we'd have to start it a couple days before we left and it would be OK, but every time you opened the door it was another hour or two before it got back to temp. The old fridge at my camp we'd fire up Thursday night when we got there but wouldn't hit temp until Saturday afternoon. Maybe the 5 or 6 I've dealt with in my life have all been bad, but they've all been bad so a mini-fridge just seems to be the best way to go. Besides, a full size fridge is about 1Kwh/day so this little guy should be significantly less than that.
