I've spent many weekends skiing out of of an 80's Skamper the last two winters. Keeping warm is not hard, other than the floor, which I hope to someday coat in expansive foam. We can get 4 nights cooking and heating off a 20lb propane, which is longer than the pair of deep cells will last. I put Mylar bubble wrap around the tent walls and windows, but usually only bother with the parts around the upper bed. Keep water bottles elevated and away from the tent walls. Subzero nights are regular, negative teens a bit tougher.
As stated above blasting the heat before dropping it will reduce cracking in older vinyl windows. Took a few weeks to figure that one out. Keep some tear aid tape handy to fix that.
Just got a MR. Heater ventless, that we run on low (4K btu). It is a nice quiet even heat that uses no battery.
