Have you had a chance to put the diesel heater to the test in the pro resort? Does it heat it up pretty well? Also do you get any condensation build up?
@GregWillett-u6n i tried the diesel heater on land in -5 to -10 degrees Celsius. We put down foam mat flooring around 3/4 of floor layout. There was still bar spots on ground. When the diesel heater is outside it has to heat the outside air so it has a harder time heating the air up for when it comes into the tent. With diesel heater outside it heated ok but would still want a hoody or jacket on as it was still a bit cold. I did not have a temp gage for this so I do not know temperature it heated to inside the tent. I moved the diesel heater inside the tent with the exhaust exiting out under the skirting of the tent. I took a small piece of tin flashing from a steel roof to go over the exhaust pipe so it would not burn the tent. Bent in a triangle form with exhaust passing under it. Ran the diesel heater for 20-30 minutes inside the tent and seen around 15 degrees Celsius according to the temp gauge on the disel heater sitting on the floor. Diesel heater was set on medium. When it hit 15 degrees I put it on low and it kept it at 15 degrees for the remaining 20 minutes I was in the tent doing the test. It was hotter near the top of the tent as heat rises. The diesel heater is a dry heat. If you open the door longer then needed the tent cools down quick and takes a little bit to warm back up. The diesel heater is I believe a better heat then a propane heater. Propane heater might give off more heat but is a humid heat and makes everything damp and is more risky for carbonmoxcide poisoning. As long as your exhaust is working correctly on the diesel heater you should have low risk of carbonmonxcide poisoning. No condensation build up. Hardest part of the heat source is transporting a good battery, extra fuel and the unit depending how long your looking to stay out. Hope this helps I will know more when i get to try it out on the ice when it freezes up. I will post a video in the next comment of the Pelican sled I picked up. Near the end of the video it shows how we had our flooring laid out and how much exposure we had left of the cold ground. We have purchased a few more mats to cover the rest of the floor since.
I was out late this afternoon evening in the eskimo quickfish 3 non insulated ice tent. brought the diesel heater. Set up heater inside the tent with exhaust venting out under the skirting. was able to regulate the temperature around 15 degrees Celsius according to the temp gauge on the diesel heater. bit of frost build up on walls but nothing to dramatic. mainly outside inside temp exchange frost.

That is a Beautiful tent,, and setting it up is so easy.....
I went from an Eskimo quickfish 3 to Otter Pro Resort. Looking forward to the larger space
@MrRahimhosein it will be nice to have the extra space, will just be a little more difficult transporting the setup.
@ yes it is heavy af. No more walking out thats for sure.
@MrRahimhosein do not think so unless I ate my Wheaties and are looking for a work out. Haha 😄
