Big Buddy Heater on sale at Tractor Supply. Yes, you can buy this in store at Walmart for $109 IF you can find one. There are none at my area Walmarts. Local Tractor Supply stores where I am don't have them in stock yet, although the sale has started. I found one ~20 miles away, but I'm going to keep checking my local store online. We want one for camping, hunting, power outages. Hey, we could get an ice storm in eastern NC! I remember one ice storm outage about 55 years ago that lasted a week.

Good Deal?

This is the one with the fan. Red version does not have a fan. Seems like a good deal given that it's at the beginning of the cold season and not spring time clearance.

Anyone know what cable to get to hook it up to a full propane tank? Does Amazon sell them?

They do sell a special adapter, but since those connections are standardized you can just use something you could buy @ HD.

For example this one is single to single:

The big buddy has spaces for 2 tanks - when facing the unit use the input on the left side.

The only big buddy on the TSC Website is green. The one in the printed ad is RED. When I search the product number in the printed ad (2133493) it returns the green one.

Mr.Heater makes several that work if you can find them in stock.
From research using a generic hose can contaminate the unit causing it to fail with no warranty support.

If you are really interested here is my post from last year in a thread about their flex heater.

Love this Bid Buddy Heater. This thing puts out some serious heat. I also gott his green one from TSC last year. Yes it does have the fan, but it does not come with the AC adapter. But that is easly fixed by doing a simple mod to the wiring so that you can power the fans with a usb power bank.

Awesome. Exactly what I was looking for. Do I need any type of regulator or just hook it up and crank it?

This one isn't approved for indoor use, like this other one, correct?

From the TSC listing for the heater in this post: "The Mr. Heater propane heater is the perfect solution for heating enclosed spaces like cabins up to 450 sq. ft."
