    I picked up a 40* Stealth secondhand from another HF member. Combined with a 20* 3/4 UQ and have been flirting with high teens and low twenties all through deer season.

    I've been amazed at the comfort at those temp ranges. Makes me think any JRB with lower ratings probably come with their own furnace!

    Outstanding and well deserved review
