Rxv heater.

Lrover123 · 11-05-2014, 11:51 AM

I just bought a little buddy propane heater. I didn't realize how big it was. How are you guys mounting these in a rxv. It is not very secure sitting in the cup holder. Just seeing if anybody has a better way. Thanks

Might put 2 eyelets (or the little hook points used to secure a bimini top on a boat might look nicer) in top of dash & use a small bungee cord at top of fuel canister.

This is not a golf cart question. But I have searched high and low and can't find the answer. I am running a little buddy heater in my golf cart. Everytime I hit a bump it shuts off, due to the "tip over" function. Does anybody know how to bypass this? Thanks

I'd guess you need to build a pendulum style mount.

I wrapped ducktape around the base just thick enough to help wedge the cup holder adaptor in place. Worked great last year.

Fixed the problem. I secured the heater in the cupholder with some Velcro, which seemed to hold real well. But the heater continued to cut off when I hit a bump. So I opened the heater up and removed the tip over sensor. No it stays lit until I hit the kill switch.

Well, there's more than one way to skin a cat! Looks like you found a good one...

I put mine in one of those koozies. Then stuff it in the cupholder and it stays pretty good.
