If for whatever reason we loose power for an extended period this year I've been debating on a couple of options to keep the house at least modestly warm. I'm thinking about buying one of those MR Heater "Big Buddy" heaters because they have three levels of putting out heat. They can also attach to a propane tank that we have for the grill, and the biggest thing is that it's safe to use indoors.

In the past I've also considered a kerosene heater, but that requires storing a volatile fuel in larger heavier containers compaired to either tanks of gas for the grill or even those little small propane tanks.
I'm just thinking that for a $140 heater with a $40 hose adapter that for $180 that buys a lot of insurance especially when I've got three little kids in the house. Any thoughts?
