My last camping trip, I couldn't get the electric igniter to light the unit at 10,400 ft. I had to use a lighter to get the pilot to light. I didn't have issue with the electric igniter at 9,000 ft though.
The heater will burn through a small Coleman propane tank rather quickly. I'm not sure the exact times, but you'll need at least 3 small tanks on Hi, and 2 small tanks on Low to get through a 8 hour period.
The units ability to carry 2 full tanks on the unit is very convenient when toting it around.
Overall the unit heats beyond my expectations. I gave it 4 stars because I was wishing for a more full proof/safer heater for sleeping in a tent (Hi burns through small tanks too fast, and I don't trust low setting at elevation due to the noise it makes), the electric igniter issue at elevation, and noise the unit makes while on low. Going forward I will invest in a better sleeping bag, and just use the heater for changing clothes for bed and heating the tent in the morning. I can't wait to bring this guy to cold football tailgates, and ice fishing.
The battery operated spark pilot ignitor is also a big plus. Just touch it and the pilot is lit.
The only downside is that anything propane powered puts off a smell. With the Hunting Buddy, the
stink-o wafts upstairs where a cracked window lets it out. It still beats a kerosene heater for smell and is less messy. The wood stove is too slow to operate and I leave the house and don't want it burning.
Yes, I'm very happy with the Hunting Buddy and its a step above my 8000 BTU buddy in our camping stuff. It has been 100% reliable.
