Everything here is general information about camping gear, not a substitute for the manual that came with your equipment. Anything that burns fuel, including stoves, lanterns, heaters and fire pits, belongs outside the tent unless the maker publishes a rating for enclosed use, so follow the clearance and ventilation instructions and carry a working carbon monoxide alarm. Campfire and fuel restrictions change by season and by site, so check them with the land manager before you light anything. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
