Stansport Portable Golf HeaterReviewed by Ronald L. Collins, 2010-01-25
The Heater provides plenty of heat in a covered Golf Cart during 40
Degree weather. The Instructions say to open the Valve 3/4 turn,
but not in which direction. The graphics on the Knob would lead a
person to think OPEN is CW as the Red Stripe gets wider as the knob
is turned CW. WRONG!!! Standard valve, just turn CCW to open. Also,
My valve only turns 1/2 turn, OFF to full ON.
Stansport Portable Golf Marine Outdoor Propane Heater
Defective heaterReviewed by Michael Jones, 2010-01-11
I assembled this heater with a new 16.4 oz. propane canister and
started it. It worked for 3 or 4 minutes, then began sputtering
very loudly. The noise was loud enough to startle everybody in the
vicinity. The heater continued to sputter and eventually lost all
heat, whereupon it was shut down.
I removed the propane cylinder and installed it into an older
heater and it worked fine, so that eliminated the propane cylinder
as the problem.
I tested the Stansport heater again later in the day and it worked
for about 10 minutes without failing.
I brought it to the golf course the next day. The ambient
temperature was in the low 30's and winds were gusting to 15 mph or
more. On the 3rd hole, I tried to light the heater with the piezo
device but it just wouldn't start. So I lit it with a cigar
lighter, which still took some time, but it finally started
heating. At the end of that hole, while we were on the green, the
loud sputtering erupted and the heater was done for the day.
Even in calm air this heater is difficult to bring to full heat.
The button on the starter device must be held for about a minute
before it reaches full power.
The good news is that Amazon makes it very easy to return defective
items.
