Unmatched Reliability for the Toughest Construction Jobsites

Conquer the cold and keep your projects on schedule with the L.B. White Tradesman 170 Ultra Portable Forced Air Heater. Designed specifically for construction sites, large workshops, and agricultural applications, this propane torpedo heater delivers a massive 170,000 BTU of directional heat. Unlike standard residential heaters, the Tradesman 170 is engineered with a heavy-duty combustion chamber and the industry's heaviest gauge burner plate, ensuring it withstands the rough handling and harsh conditions of professional environments. Its "Tri-Shield" finish provides superior protection against abrasion and corrosion, guaranteeing this tool remains a staple in your fleet for years to come.

Efficiency and ease of use are at the core of the Tradesman 170's design. It features a Variable Heat Output valve, allowing you to dial the heat down to 125,000 BTU for smaller spaces or crank it up to 170,000 BTU when temperatures plummet. Troubleshooting in the field is effortless thanks to the exclusive Service Saver™ diagnostic light, which helps you quickly identify issues and minimize downtime. With a dependable direct spark electronic ignition and a thermostatic control interface, this heater offers consistent, hassle-free warmth exactly where you need it, making it the preferred choice for contractors who demand performance without compromise.

Pro-Tip: To ensure continuous operation without freeze-ups, always use a 100 lb. propane cylinder or larger with this heater. Smaller 20 lb. tanks (like those for BBQ grills) cannot vaporize fuel fast enough to sustain the 170,000 BTU draw, which will cause the tank to freeze and the heater to shut down prematurely.

Sleek and spacious
Color: Black, Size: Small
Perfect for those who have multiple remotes and need a single place to stow them away. Material is leather like, firm and has a texture design. It suits well on a countertop or end table. It is not petite.

Great product
Color: Black, Size: Small
This is great to store multiple remotes in a small footprint clearing up table room. My 6 year old Grandson loves it also keeping remotes in one area. He operates the TV also. We loved it so much we bought a second for another room.

Perfect for me.
Color: Black, Size: Small
I was a little trepidatious before opening it all up and checking out the holder. I didn't know whether or not the larger remotes I had would fit. How would it work for the bulky / longer TV and Universal Remotes. It worked perfectly. The holder is small enough to use on a small side table next to the couch. And it's very simple to access. The living room now looks like a living room...rather than Radio Shack gone biserk.
