So, looking more into this 4000-9000 BTU, can mount to a wall just the same as the dust-sensitive Olympian, and has a quick-connect hose available in case it is needed elsewhere. It can run 3-12 hours on two canisters (1 lb/each). So we could assume 12 hours is on "Low" and "Low" is 4000 BTU which is plenty so at 13.9 lbs that's around 83 hours run time on low and around 20 on high? Not that big a difference and I could probably route a hookup to run the built-in blower. But is it as safe as the Olympian?

EDIT: I have to say, being a radiant heater, Mr. Heater has the worst amount of safety information out there. Going on an hour I've been searching and found nothing on how far it has to be from furniture, walls, etc.

Unless you have a circuit diagram of the hardware interlock regarding the safety sensors, and can confirm that the unit is rendered inoperable under low oxygen/high carbon monoxide, I wouldn't get anything that doesn't vent exhaust gases out of the enclosed area.

If you can run power there, use an electric heater. If you can't run power, use a generator. If you can't use a generator, find a something that vents exhaust gases outside the area.

From a safety perspective, you are an unknown number of failures away from potentially lethal, hard to detect situations. That makes it difficult to recommend over other alternatives.

Look around for used generators; it looks like you can get a brand new one 4kw from home depot for about 300usd.

You can probably find used electric heaters very, very easily and cheaply.
None of that is an option, we camp in the middle of the woods, closest house is a Hurricane Katrina temp trailer a guy lives in about a mile away. Generators can't be run all night to keep warm as they are expensive, require gasoline which will run out much faster than one of the heaters listed will run out of its fuel, they are loud, and the only option for a forced air vented unit would cost about the same as a decent generator.

Electic heating simply isn't an option unless we luck into a camper that has a factory 12v RV central unit installed already.

In other news, next time my niece parks in the way and is too lazy to move her vehicle herself, it will be relocated to the church parking lot, two blocks away. Stay tuned, it'll probably happen tomorrow.

Can get propane if you want; but they are still loud. Another option is to just use a hot water bottle.
I actually have an old hot water bottle from like WWI... I had better by God still have it! Brb.

EDIT: Yeah, still in the curio cabinet. Looks like this...

I just had a kid approach me because he got an F on the last semester's grade and he's about to get cut from the basketball team.

The reason he got an F is because he doesn't give a ***about the class and just goofs around all day. Now that he's about to get cut, it's my fault he's failing.

I told him I'd be here to noon, change all the paperwork after posting grades and it's basically a nightmare so he can keep playing basketball. And I'm going to do it because I'm a sap.

***.

Break up with GF: check
Be at school longer than I intended and redo a ton of paperwork: check

This day is just going fantastically.

Stand your ground Mag. Make him realize that his grades are more important than basketball. Make him feel the pain, the pain of a thousand suns beating down on his skin!

should make him retake the test or some random ***like that, or write an essay about why you should bother changing his grade.
or wash your car, or introduce you to her hot aunt.
or BJ for all the class, cause everyone likes Ben Jerry ice cream.

Because even though they are *** and they feel like they can do whatever they want, I still have compassion for those ***.

This is probably why I'll take huge pay cuts, have my dignity stomped and squished on and still come back for more punishment.

***' A, man.

Oh, I am making him do that. He's making up a summative essay.

I'm not just going to change his grade.

This might just be me but doing this isn't showing them compassion. It's not only teaching them that bad behavior is rewarded but that he still doesn't have to do anything in school to get what he sees as important.

I don't think you're doing him or yourself any favors by caving in like that but that's just me lol...

Also, are teachers allowed to change grades based on student requests?

No, but I can give him an opportunity to make up his work. I'm basically forced to do that by administration, but I'd do it anyway. He's just rewriting an essay that he got a low grade on, before.

I might just leave early, though.

To be fair: basketball could potentially get him a much better career if he's wise with his money and invests it properly if he makes it to the pros.

But as that's slim to none, crush his *** dreams Mag.

j/k :P

I never got that... Hey kid you got an F but here, rewrite this paragraph and I'll give you a D so you can participate in sports!

How does stuff like that actually give anyone an actual education?

Before you lose your ***I'm speaking in general at this point.

Glad I didn't have Mag as a teacher, I had to bomb a few classes (2) to stop horsing around and focus again. Mainly math, which I've never had interest in, but needed to pass because it was dragging down my GPA. For all that was worth.

I feel really bad in hindsight because HS students are the biggest *** ever. My math teacher was going through some tough RL ***and here I was, hotshot mcasswipe, giving her a hard time while she was earning some ***-tier wage.

I apologized to her on Facebook after she moved back to her home country cause when you're 16, adults should be given medals just for not hacking your kids to pieces.

shorter answer: no

the only time for gold plating would be if you're in an area prone to corrosion, aside from that it's just a waste as the electrical difference is within tolerance, and it's a digital signal anyway...

/noms a "burrito"

And I put burrito in quotes because we went with chipotle....
we also could have gone with the italian version of chipotle called Piada piadaor the korean version of chipotle called bibibop bibibop...
or the chipotle's diabolical evil twin version of chipotle called qdobaqdoba

my wife asked if there was a greek version of chipotle yet and I told her to close her eyes for ten minutes...

I don't know how many more bowl/wrap places I can handle before I start setting buildings on fire

I need meat that hasn't been cut up into tiny bite size pieces sometimes
