This time of year is a good time to think about winter or emergency survival. Last year I got my self supplies for a 72 hour kit and put them in a duffle bag in the hall closet. This year I saw this video on Youtube that reminded me of the 2 days I spent in a cold apartment in January when some knucklehead knocked the powerline down feeding our neighborhood. This heater idea would have been a nice fall back. But the big warning is not to use it while sleeping or in an air tight room or it will Kill you. 

If anyone is interested in the details of my 72 Hour kit, I will share them below:
