That's THERMOCOUPLE, boar. Don't sound like Glenn and call it a coupler.   :rotflmao:
Glad it's working again. :happy1:

one other thing I found out this year is that you shouldn't leave a 1 pounder tank hooked up to the sunflower heater when not in use.. I had mine in the back seat of my truck and the inside of the truck heated up and I heard a Pssssssss sound from the back seat. Next time I went to use the heater, it didn't work. I mentioned this to a friend and he had the same issue a while back.. Un hook the heater from any source of gas when no in use. It ruined my heater..
Glenn, I'm curious what other brand heater you use?
Where did I catch all these fish you ask??? right in the lip....

Here is the main heater o use for my spear house. I got 2 of them. Bought one at reeds in walker and one at fleet farm. They throw some serious heat.

Yep think that plywood bottom is 10 by 10 if that. Maybe 8 by 8 inches sits about 12-14 inches high. Best part it's got a pilot lite don't turn tank off, you can shut the valve down, then next morning turn valve on and poof instant heat!

 I believe its called a Nu Way heater. Or something like that. Had one in my old 6x8 house and it heated that up no problem. Still have two of them also, one's in the spearhouse and one in the garage sitting on a shelf.
