Life Hack: Heat Your Tent or Small Apartment

"BACK STORY"

I live in a 1 bedroom apartment, and was hit with a $250 Electric Bill. I know what your thinking "how the hell?"

I was blown away, and was thinking of ways to cut costs, and found that it was my heater that was the culprit.

When I lived in Ohio back east, my family and I hovered around a kerosene heater in the living room. to stay warm.

And slept in our coats and clothes in the living room at night, until the heater was replaced.

Solution:

I pulled out our trusty food dehydrator from the pantry,

and made some beef jerky while I waited to see how long it would take to heat our living room. lol

Results:

It took 2 hours to go from 60*F to 72*F in our living room and stable out.

I did this everyday from 2 pm to 10 pm before bed

We currently run it empty, since I dehydrated most of our canned fruit, and Pasta Sauces dry.

With the extra money we saved last month, i took my wife out to dinner, and am neck deep in Jerky :)
