Pellet patio heater in a wall tent

I saw this guy at Freddie's a while back and was going thru some photos and it came back into conversation...

It seems like a novel concept having a pellet heater/stove that requires no power to run, no messing around chopping wood, just fill it with pellets and light it and away you go...

What I really started thinking about was if anybody had stuffed one of these stoves in a wall tent...

I have a 12x12 alaknak and was thinking having a pellet stove and just packing a couple bags of pellets theoretically is easier than packing wood and might possibly get longer burn times and a more consistent burn, but don't know anything about these pellet patio heaters

Looks like the flue would have to be modded to fit down the stove jack but otherwise seem like it would just streamline things, I've just never considered a pellet stove in my tent... I recently got into pellet grills and when I came across that heater I was getting grill pellets and it got me thinking enough I'd get some thoughts on it

Pellet stoves I've seen have an auger to feed pellets and a fan.

How would you vent it?  Looks like it could be a deadly problem.   Why not a wood stove and pesto logs?

I ran across some really hard core elk hunters from Castle Rock washington in montana that had a gravity fed pellet stove. They said it was made in the CR WA area.

I used the q stove gravity feed pellet stove patio heat in my wall tent a number of times. It works great, I bought the extended hoppers so it will burn for 12 hrs or so depending on how high you have it. Only complaint would be it takes a little longer to get good heat out of it when you first start it than a wood stove. I quit using it because I do all of my cooking on the stove top, so I went back to wood stove. It has a chimney on it so it goes right out the normal stove Jack. I would sell mine if you were interested, it’s ready to go. All the pipe and everything. I’d probably sell it all for $300

I used a gravity feed pellet stove for a couple years in a 12x14 wall tent and it worked great. The biggest thing with these type of stoves  is keeping them drafting. Sometimes ash buildup is an issue. They do put out a lot of heat and picking up bags of pellets while out of state is a lot easier than finding firewood.

A regular pellets stove doesn’t take much electricity to run; a small power station would run it for days.  If you are packing in a stove and pellets, packing a power station shouldn’t be an issue.

The gravity stoves are so much lighter than a regular pellet stove but if that wasn’t an issue it would be great. Lately I have wondered how well a pellet smoker would work in a wall tent to heat and cook.
