Were it not for peoples PITA kids who have to stick their body parts into 
everything I would use my turkey fryer burner, just cause I already own one.

Next would be the Coleman Catalytic, which runs on the disposable 1 lb 
propane tanks, small and expensive but would serve to warm the fingers in 
the packing/making change area.

This guy is bigger, has guards enough to look safe, is the best fuel buy, 
and at 23,000BTUs will make a difference until a breeze blows through.

As to the electric, all the inverters I have met specify they are not for 
use on heating devices.
