Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Hello all, If any one out there has used their carver P4 in some cold weather I would like to hear how well it heats. I know, I know, insulation is a big factor so a note as to the amount you do or don't use would be helpful. I am interested in the approx inside temps versus outside temps (below 32 at least) and time run versus battery condition. The reason I ask is I currently have a large gas heater I think may have been designed for old Bugs and also the type you might find in a school bus or something. Anyway it is a power hungry thing and will drain the battery in about 3hours. But Boy does it heat!! I mean 20's to 60's in a half hour with no insulation. But like I said the battery life is too short to be really good. So all info welcome. thanks Nat.
