Hi from a winter camper in Canada!

Hello!

I am going to be converting a utility trailer into a camper trailer for minimalist winter camping (no toilet/water/shower/fridge). We'll be insulating it and installing a heater, but then just using our coleman stove and cooler for the stove/fridge.

Neither me or my partner has owned a trailer before, but between the two of us we have some electrical knowledge and some construction knowledge.

Best install a carbon monoxide detector along with that heater.
