Living off or below the grid is always a struggle but it is the simple methods of comfort that make it entirely worth our while. But if you are new to prepping or homesteading start slow and check out the following:
This interesting idea has us wondering how this process might work in the wilderness or during a camp-out. You would certainly have to be careful but if it becomes cold enough where some heat will be needed inside the tent, why not give it a try?

Made this myself, would work in a very small room. Get toxic free candles. I stopped using this because I put a few extra candles underneath the pot and they all caught on fire. Be careful
Used 1 sterno. Put out a lot of heat.
Anything with a flame can produce carbon monoxide and is a fire hazard, adequate ventilation is a must and NOT on a carpeted floor !! Place a few bricks as a base. This does provide a limited amount of heat so a small room / space is better.
VERY small room.
Made 3, all different sizes. All didn’t produce enough heat for anything besides drying socks. I found it was a really nice foot warmer and would probably be nice in a camper or small room.
