I had some problem years ago without filter and different hoses.

Since I got filters no more issues.

Good luck.

We're in the middle of our 4th archery elk with our BRAVO tent. It's very dialed in to say the least. The kiddos 12 and 7 now fight over who puts the most pieces together fastest! Good times for sure. Only issue which I brought up before and I failed to get the filter is the propane with 5 gallon jug with interconnting hoses leaching the oil into the heaters and Colman cook stove. Caught it and have been using the 1lb cylinders which we refill. So frustrating.  Will order up filters asap. As Bone noted in his resent post this age thing sucks........ :chuckle:

Hope everyone has a great and safe Wall Tent experience this fall season!

Can you explain what the filter is needed for please?

I have been using 5 gallon propane bottles for 20 years with a tree on top. Hose out of tree for BBQ and another hose for two burner Coleman grill. And a propane light on top of the tree.
Another 5 gallon bottle is used with a Little Buddy Heater,  but I have not had to us it since 2015.
.


Thanks Ghost for posting video!  We ran all our propane stuff off the tree with hoses for years as well. The old hoses began cracking so what the heck we will get new hoses.......... Get the Buddy hoses from Bi Mart and heck couple new heaters to. Couple seasons into it the same exact thing happened to one of the heaters noted in video. Seems there may be two different grad of hoses Buddy sells??? Maybe one hose with the elastisamers that plage the system and a hose that does not? Will need to check part numbers once back from elk camp!!! Thank God for our homemade redneck/hillbilly enginudeity fabricated deluxe woodstove! Weather's turning tomorrow.
Slap some bacon on a biscut and lets go, were burrnin daylight!

Thank you I appreciate it.

I have been lucky the last 5 years. I have been Deer camping in a campground, that has electrical and water hookups. Only 20 miles from where I hunt.

My buddy heater has not been lit since. I will have to break it out and do some testing.  :tup:

Had billions of those seed bugs at our house in Northern ID this year.   They dont smell great when you move them. 

The turkeys love them though!

Just glad my wife did not know about them before we moved out here!  Might have been a deal killer as she hates them

The warm weather this past season got me thinking about solar lighting for my cook shack and tents.

Anyone using solar lighting in your tent. What’s your set up?

I have portable 80 watt panel for my Rv. Thinking of using it hunting too.

About four weeks before pulling out the wall tents for the first hunt this year. Turkey.

Can’t wait to get some nights in here.
