There’s something special about fall hunting trips. The crisp air, the quiet of the forest, and the excitement of the chase. But if you’ve ever been out there in the early morning or late evening, you know how quickly the cold can sink in. Staying warm isn’t just about comfort; it helps you stay focused, alert, and ready for the hunt.
On our recent hunting trip, we decided to test out a Planar portable diesel heater powered by an Ultimatron lithium battery. The setup worked even better than expected, reliable, quiet, and efficient. Here’s how it went and why this little setup might be a game-changer for your next outdoor adventure.
Setting Up the Portable Diesel Heater
We brought along the Planar 2D portable diesel heater, one of those compact, all-in-one units that’s easy to carry and quick to set up. Instead of keeping it inside the car, we placed it outside the vehicle, running a duct hose inside to keep the air warm. That setup worked perfectly with no diesel smell inside, just a steady flow of warm air.
It took only a few minutes to get everything running. Once started, the heater kept a steady temperature all night long. The fuel use was minimal, and it barely made any noise, just a low hum that blended into the sounds of the forest.
Powering It with the Ultimatron Lithium Battery
Instead of relying on the car battery or a noisy generator, we connected the heater to an Ultimatron lithium battery. These batteries are lightweight, reliable, and designed for outdoor use. What impressed us most was how long it lasted. We ran the heater overnight without worrying about running out of power.
The Ultimatron battery’s built-in display made it easy to check the charge level, and even after hours of heating, it still had plenty of juice left. It’s a great option for hunters or campers who need dependable power for heaters, fridges, or lights without dealing with the hassle of cords or fuel generators.
Comfort Makes a Difference While Hunting
When you’re out hunting, comfort can really make or break the experience. Being cold and stiff makes it harder to stay patient or move quietly. Having a warm place to rest, whether in a tent, a camper, or your vehicle, keeps you sharper and more focused.
The Planar heater kept our space dry and warm, even when the temperature dropped close to freezing overnight. It also helped reduce condensation inside the tent, so our gear stayed dry. Little details like that make a big difference when you’re living outdoors for several days.
Why a Portable Diesel Heater is Worth It
If you spend time outdoors in the fall or winter, a portable diesel heater is one of the best upgrades you can make. It’s not just for hunters; it’s also great for overlanders, campers, and anyone who loves exploring off-grid.
Here’s why it’s worth it:
1. Fuel-Efficient
Uses very little diesel while producing a steady flow of heat.
2. Reliable Power
When paired with a lithium battery, it runs quietly for hours without interruption.
3. Safe and Portable
The heater stays outside your tent or vehicle, so there’s no risk of fumes.
4. Easy Setup
Plug it in, start it up, and you’ll have warmth within minutes.
It’s the perfect balance of comfort, efficiency, and independence for anyone who enjoys being out in nature, no matter the temperature.
