can you pmail my wife and tell her that? :)

I apologise for derailing the original thread. But it is interesting
to see how much water is produced by burning propane. I wish I had a
Propex heater, especially for camping here in the cold moist PNW.

The Propex (or similar vented heater) would help to drive off the
moisture from the van (if you can have top vent open) when camping.
You know what its like inthe winter, you do tend to spend more time
in the (lack of light outside) and just getting in with snow or rain
soaked clothes is going to introduce a lot of moisture.

I'm interested in this right now as I am wondering about a home made
pop top fly, and trying to apply lesson learned snow camping in tents.

I am truly impressed with that info; that's why we get so much
moisture in
the van; three cups is a LOT of water!!
