Can you use an oil lantern inside of a wood stove for all night heat? - eviltoast

Can you place a lit kerosene lantern in a wood stove that has a chimney? In a relatively small room such as a truck camper, would you be exposed to carbon dioxide or would it go out the chimney as if burning wood?

    It helps keep your feet warm for a little while, but honestly? The water bottle is most useful for something to drink when you wake up- keeping it from being totally frozen.

      I’m sure a purpose made item has been invented by now, but I’ve had good results filling a large steel canteen with boiling water then putting it inside two or three thick wool socks and having it still steamy when I open it in the morning.

        They make little pillows filled with seeds or cherry pits. You can microwave 'em to get them hot. Love those things. Would recommend the seed filled ones over the cherry pit ones. The cherry pits feel coarse.
