It got down to 19F in Branson last night. We heat our fifth wheel with a elec fireplace and a small space heater. I had disconnected the water hose, filled the onboard tank, and turned on a 100W light bulb I had mounted over the water tank near the pump. Everything was fine this morning.

Have you thought about a ceramic lizard heat lamp bulb 20k instead of 1k hours the element is wire instead of tunsten filament. They run from 50 to 250 watts recommended to run ceramic socket. If quarters were tight I would project it on a ceramic tile on floor.

That’s a great idea!

This past Monday it got down to 4-6 degrees. I made it ok because my basement is insulated well but those temps could use some help. There was a cat trying to get inside my storage unit the whole week. Felt sorry for the guy but I’m not a cat person.

Where are you guys staying?
