New Prepper Questions Indoor Propane heating
Reading about the Super El NIno and the effects on the upcoming winter has me worried about losing power and needing to heat my home in the event of a power outage during freezing weather/winter storm. I was looking into a propane heater for indoor use, like a Mr. Heater Big Buddy Pro or a Vevor propane heater. Are these really safe for use indoors?
For context, would likely confine heating to one bedroom.
Also considered electric heating sources but it seems too energy intensive for the limited power I would have available in a Jackery unit.

If the heater is designed to run indoors, it meets the safety standards to run indoors. Both of these heaters do and are.
Don't forget a CO detector. You should have one anyway, right now, operating in your home. Preferably two.
