[A/S] Catalytic Heaters - Who Wins?

["savh_steve" <savh_steve@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am looking at two propane heaters that are sig different in price. 
I would buy the Mr Heater for under $100 if the *quality* is close to 
the same. 

Is one much cleaner burner? ie can you use one as a auxiallary heater 
in a home? Can you smell the burning? I know about leaving a small 
opening vent in RV / home for O2.
