Turk's Titanium Goat woodstove in a prototype JRB heated hammock hut looks like the hanger's response to a Kifaru Paratipi. I'm waiting for a Sierra Designs (SD) Origami 4 tarp so 2 cots and 2 dogs will fit in when winter/snow car camping. It'd be nice to warm up and dry off when camping after a day of cross country skiiing in wet snow. I thought about installing a Titanium Goat Cylinder or Kifaru wood burning stove in the SD tarp when modified with a chimney jack. But, I'm afraid the dogs would bump into it and burn themselves and soggy fuel wood is a problem around here in the wintertime. I'm also kind of freaked out at the thought of a woodburning stove in a silnylon tarp structure.
So, I'm looking into a Coleman catalytic heater like the BlackCat that runs on the ubiquitous green Coleman propane canisters to heat a battoned down Speer Winter Tarp and SD Origami 4 tarp. Has anyone here ever used a catalytic or other heater in a hammock winter tarp or tarp-tent or even a regular tent? Would a 3000 BTU catalytic heater warm up a Speer Winter Tarp when it's 20 degrees outside? Know of any tricks to improve insulation but maintain ventilation when using a heater in a tarp-tent? Any general impressions or suggestions?
