That's kinda what I was thinking about the chiminea, but wasn't sure.

Are those the ones that attach directly to the tank? How do those work in open air? Or, would the porch need to have a wind block like Brutus2600 was talking about?

Well, I use it on my back deck, and while its somewhat protected I would say the heater does a decent job at radiating heat. If its that windy, ill smoke in the garage.

As a lifetime resident of Houston TX, I rarely get to brag about the weather, but it is nice to never worry about freezing my a$$ off while smoking a cigar.

The downside might be worse though. Suffering 100% humidity in +100 degree weather during the summer is also damn near unbearable.
