If I was not able to have a lunch time smoke I would'nt have many at all either. Luckily it stays warm enough here that a thick coat will do or if raining, into the truck with the vent on.
Because of the lunchtime thing I usually go with smaller smokes, Coronas robustos etc. I hate to throw out 1/2 a smoke. I save the big guys for when I have the proper time.

I have found that I smoke very little in the winter. Today it's +8*F and that is just too cold to stand around outside for a smoke. The local B&M closes by the time I get out of work so that's not an option.

My most favorite time to smoke is around the campfire on a warm summer evening. It doesn't get any better than that for me.

Actually I meant the top part, but now you've got me thinking......
It sounds like it throws of enough heat. But can it be used inside, like a 3 season sunroom, or a garage?

Wow y'all are making me feel a little better. I don't get more than a couple of smokes a month but there are at least a few places around here to smoke. I end up at a local BW3 on a regular basis, smoking, beer, sports on tv and hot wings. Pretty good scenario it's the full time job and the seven month old that keep me from having time to smoke.

Absolutely, I have it set up in my garage. The trick is finding a good distance between the heater and your chair, or else your knees start to smoke

Here is their product site . I believe I am using the MH12 and I haven't had a problem. The tanks last quite a while as well, it doesn't burn them too quickly.

I have only smoked about four cigars since it got really cold in the Fall and now deep into Winter.

I enjoy sitting outside in a comfy chair with a drink and iPod/iPhone listening to music. It is great to unwind from a long day like that while the Sun goes down! It is just too cold and not relaxing enough in the Winter.

Talking Cigar Enjoyment Time Dwindling?

I notice the number of smokes I have go down in proportion to the outdoor temperature. I long for the Spring.

I'm new-ish to the hobby, but I was having 2 to 3 per week when I first started in the summer. Once the days started getting shorter and the air colder, I've gone down to an average of something like 2 to 3 per month. I bought a heater to put in front of me on my deck, but that doesn't help the fact that it's dark by the time I get home from work. I REALLY miss being able to unwind with a cigar after a stressful day at work.

I check the almanac online almost every day to watch the days get longer.... all I need is 1 to 1.5 hours of semi-daylight and I should have enough time for a smaller cigar of some kind (I'm a slow smoker).

I agree with you, I may only smoke 1 cigar a week it seems. I can't wait for the summer time so I can go on walks after work to smoke a cigar, and sit outside at our patio and surf the web and smoke some of my cigars. Ah, I am looking forward to that greatly!

I say this every winter .... "I'm getting a gas line run to the garage and a heater installed this spring"

4 yrs later I still rely on my kerosene space heater which does a decent job but still puts off some kero fumes. So I'll say it again - Once Lowes starts clearencing thier garage heaters I'm buying one!!!!!!!!!! I just wonder how long it will take for me to hire someone to install it
