The new Portable Buddy MH9BX has been redesigned with a larger heating surface to direct radiant heat over a wider area. A fold-down handle has been added for compact storage on hunting and camping trips and a convenient swivel-out fuel connection allows for easy installation of LP cylinders and hoses.
The MH9BX also features an all-in-one control with an easy-start Piezo igniter and hi-lo settings that deliver 4,000 or 9,000 BTU’s of radiant heat comfort for up to 6 hours on a single 1lb. disposable propane cylinder or up to 110 hours when connected to a 20lb. LP tank using an optional hose connection.

The Portable Buddy is CSA approved for temporary indoor and outdoor recreational use with an indoor-safe, low-oxygen shut-off system and a tip-over safety shut-off. Weighing only 8 pounds, it’s easily carried from place to place making it the perfect heat source for tents, cabins, ice shanties, hunting blinds, RV’s, truck caps, enclosed porches and any outdoor space where warmth is needed. It is also a reliable back-up for emergency heating during power outages.
