Starting at $125, no bids yet. I am in no way associated with the seller.

BTW, my e-mail was down all weekend, so I missed the whole "Coleman Plat
Cat"
thread, but I'll take this opp. to get in my 2 cents...

1) I've been using my DuraCat/BlackCat since September and it STILL stinks -

as in it produces this noxious sweet smell when running. Smelly, yes, but
I can live with it.

2) Coleman catalytic heaters have been commonly available (based on my
observations) since the 60's. it seems as if Coleman stopped producing them
during the late 80's, and that the DuraCat/BlackCat is the first one they've

sold for quite some time.

3) If you think the DuraCat/BlackCat smells bad, try using a Coleman Model
513
liquid fuel catalytic heater - it's like running your DuraCat/BlackCat while

parked behind a city bus - blech. I ran one in my van this weekend during
the
day to have a place to duck into to warm up while working outside... Monday
AM the van still smells like the 4th floor of the Port Authority Bus
Terminal!
