The only tiltable portable heater allowing you to direct the heat, Heat Hog helps you stay warm and runs on 1-pound propane cylinders or a 20-pound tank, is indoor and outdoor safe, and doesn’t require any electricity. Newly patented features include a warming dock in the back allowing you to maximize the fuel use of each cylinder, a curved heating plaque which provides a 33% wider heating area than other heaters, and a tilting feature that allows you to control where the heat goes and command the cold.
Jon Thelen, with a 25-year fishing industry career, expressed his enthusiasm about the product by stating “Whether talking portable fishing or in my deer stand, I want and need a heater I can rely on to keep me warm and stand up to the elements. Heat Hog uses virtually every ounce of propane in the can meaning I have no waste, and on top of that it has proven durable enough to ride in my sled at 40mph up the trail to the hotspots and fire right up everytime!”
