Propane preheater

Would one of these fit in my tcart? It runs off a little propane bottle, and looks like you can get an extension cord for it too.

Just go to Stoddards or Reeves, they have one that works great and uses avgas or any other type of gasoline...its an MSR XGK stove with stainless ducting. Tim

Re: Propane preheater

Maybe I'll look into that when I'm in Anchorage. I think I'd prefer something that will just fit under the cowling though.

If the propane starts a fire and its under the cowling, you would have serious problems. Dont ask how I know.... Duct it up from under the aircraft.

I know those propane heaters work good in tents and between the leggs when ice fishing or on a hunting stand.

I have a professional aircraft heater that I got from a part 135 company that I will never need here in Savannah, Ga. I need it out of my way. I'll go look and see who makes it. it uses a propane bottle and a 12v battery. call me at 912-844-3886. I'll sell it cheap!
