Anyone need a kerosene heater?
I don't have space to keep mine.
I looks like this:

It's a radiant heater, no forced air. The tea kettle (on top in the
pic) was to put some steam in the air because I found it heater more
efficiently that way. The heater/tea kettle setup worked pretty good in
a 14'x20' garage this winter when it was 20 degrees outside... no data
on how good or bad it would work in a larger space.
Looking on Amazon, I think it's this exact model... 23,000 BTU heater...

I've got the heater, kettle, a full 5 gallon can of Kerosene, and a 1
gallon transfer container that makes it easier to fill, since you would
have to be a beast to aim the 5 gallon can.
It's supposedly got an electric igniter that uses a couple C or D cell
batteries, but I've never tried it, I've always lit it with a lighter,
so I can't swear that the igniter works.
If someone is interested, I can bring the whole package in tomorrow, I
need to get rid of it asap.
