"I know this may start a war but in my opinion the Vanagon is simply too small to operate any type of non-vented or even a limited vent style heater inside especially while sleeping."

IMO, Dennis is right. I /always/ (except for that one time) keep the hatch slider window open to the first detent and shut the heater off at bedtime. I rely on a couple of down comforters to keep myself warm when sleeping.
