The 16 ouncer burner is 3,500 bTU per hour, the 20 pounder burner has

and tubes are sold, to run the smaller burners off gas grill tanks. So
if the smaller burner is enough to heat the area, the larger tank
would be far more cost effective. It's about a dollar a pound for gas
grill tanks, they actually fill more like 16 pounds per tank. The 16
ouncers are $2.50 or so at Walmart. As high as 3.49 in other stores.

I've been getting some supplies set in for a while now. Going kind of
slow at it tho. I would like to learn more about setting up an
emergency heat source using propane. What models or types/styles of
heaters to get and how to use them safely inside the house. I assume
there needs to be some ventilation.

I have a camp stove but I wonder if a propane setup of some sort for
cooking if the power goes out would be a good idea.

I have a generator that I could use for short term but gasoline is
less dependable for long term power outages.
