I believe Mr heater claims about five and a half hours run time on a one pound canister. I was under the impression.The real run time was around 4 to 5 hours. You're getting 2 to 3?
You get 2 to 3 hours on high and 5 to 6 hours on medium when using the Portable Buddy. I haven't tested the Little Buddy for time, but I'm expecting it's on a low setting and will give you the 5 - 6 hours. That reminds me that I need to do that test and upload the video. Let me know if you have any other questions. Rick
Mine has issues. Runs for 5 minutes with a blue flickering flame then dies. It pumped my fish house full of propane. I had to pack up and leave because my house smelt so bad. Took my portable buddy and that’s way too hot on low.
The little buddy heater works great in a hunting blind.
You're right. That would be a perfect place for it.

I'm very interested in a hack to mount the little buddy on a 20 lb tank! preferably without a hose
Interesting idea. I know you can attach a 20 pound tank to a Portable Buddy and Big Buddy. I'll let you know if I see anything like it.

@CampingwithRick22 another thought is that by turning down the shutoff valve on the tank you can maybe able to regulate the temp of the heater?
Another great point I had not considered. Thanks.

It's always good to hear about other people's experiences, even if they're not good. Thanks for letting us know.
