Back to condensation: one of the reasons for paying more for a more
efficient catalytic heater (like the Olympian Wave III that I use) is
that you get a LOT less condensation. Or, as others are always
reminding me, you  could get an outside-vented heater like the Propex
and have none at all. The Mr. Buddy isn't the only alternative.

Don't ask me how I know what happens when a down bag touches a
catalytic for 100th of a second. The upwards convection from the
heater will create a blizzard and then the most peaceful indoor snow
scene afterwards that can only be removed from the upholstery with a
lint roller.
