5kW Portable Diesel Outdoor Heater

BougeRV's $289.99 Diesel Heater Warms a Tent in 8 Minutes

HOUSTON – November 02, 2026 -- Winter campers can now get a portable 5kW diesel heater from BougeRV with a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $289.99, sold through BougeRV.com and Amazon. The company says it warms a 3–4 person tent from 32°F to 68°F in about 8 minutes.

Diesel fuel produces the heat. Electricity runs only the ignition, airflow and controls. Combustion and heated-air pathways are separate, so exhaust vents outside while clean, dry warm air flows into the shelter. The unit has a rugged metal exterior, and its control panel is rated IPX4 for changing weather.

Four safety protections are built in

The heater includes automatic overheat shutoff, short-circuit protection, reverse-connection protection and over-voltage protection.
