I have two of the cylinder stoves. Pretty much top drawer. Both are about 10 years old, still sound.

I run a NuWay 3500 stove in mine. No need to stoke, add wood, worry about pops & cinders and completely regulated heat all night. http://nuwaystove.com/product/model-3500/

How many nights can you get out of a 20lb tank if it’s say 25-30 out?

thanks

1 or 2 weeks depending how long you run it and whether you use one or two burners. I would run it on high to warm the tent after the hunt, turn it down for the night and crank it up again the morning before heading out, then shut the propane tank valve for the day. Make sure you have a couple carbon monoxide detector alarms in the tent if running it at night. On a low, single burner setting my 10X14 stays at about 65* when it's snowing outside. That's a guess...didn't have a thermometer but that's what it felt like.

Awesome, thanks! I think that’s the way I’m gonna go then. I’m getting ready to buy a Kodiak soon.
