You could, of course, fit heating elements to the Truma heater.  Talk to Gary at Arc Systems.  He will know if it can be done and may even have the Truma parts.

Gelert 3 season sleeping bag (mummy style) with a liner, fleecy baselayer for me. light fleece top and tracky bottoms and sleeping bag/2 fleece blankets for mum. that was us at killin (minus 4 plus windchill) okay looking for a 400watt oil filled rad

dont use duvets as too may gaps for heat to escape

We bought a convector heater,very lightweight/thermostat, we place it in front of the gas fire(we dont use the gas fire anymore) it just sits in front of the trauma, and is so quiet,think it was about £19 form arg*s.

800w oil filled rad and a good sleeping bag and the wife seem to stay warm all night

Hi,

We used to have a Triton and know too well the cold nights. The best thing we had was a Consort Frostfighter electric heater which didn't make hardly any noise apart the the occasional click of the thermostat and was low wattage (450w).New they are about £32 list price but we got ours at a boot sale for a few pounds.

The heater on the left is the deluxe model with a booster fan but we had the basic one on the right. (http://www.consortepl.com/frost.htm)

We didn't like to leave our Truma gas heater on through the night so this proved a good option to leave on.
