    Get a quiet harbor frieght generator, and a heated blanket + window ac unit...longer run time vs a space heater thats gonna suck power and be inefficient....the indoor ac units use way more power and they give off heat...a window unit sips energy and will ice you out even in texas heat.

    And then once you've saved up get a mini system powered by your generator.

    :biggrin_25513: Could you please let him have his moment? Always someone to come along and mess up the man’s moment. A hollering driver is a happy driver.

    If it’s not the screen, it’s the heater knob that fell off, rolled out of the rig, down the median, over to the shoulder and under the DOT SUV’s tire who then gets out with his big old hat and boots that are up to his underarms who claimed he had a noise complaint about a heater knob hitting rubber that was called in by his partner that was laying down in the back seat who got triggered by the sound and had PTSD flashbacks of getting attacked by 3,462 heater knobs.

    Then after all that they perform 6 level 1 inspections in a row plus a full cavity search on the man. So let him have his moment with the screen dag nabbit!

    No I don’t think so? I lay I. Top of it not under it. But it Dosent matter when I’m under the covers I’m perfectly comfortable. I keep the desk top on 1/8 till my first alarm goes off then kick it up to 3/8 and turn off the heated blanket. In 9 minutes it perfectly comfortable to crawl outa bed.

    nice thing about the heated blanket is it so easy to adjust at night while in bed….
