Thigh-melting heat. Firelight to tie flies and tell tales by. Plus, you can huck your truck with it.
Made for a crew of four, the R4 MKii is a campsite workhorse that walks softly upon the earth. It keeps you warm in any weather, at any altitude, and on any piece of ground you can get to.
The BarCoal tubes absolutely rip at 1300+ degrees Farenheit, giving you the heat you need, while the EchoHeat Reflector Shields keep the ground cool. There's no fire ring or ash left behind, which keeps your secret spot a secret. With no embers or sparks, it's safer for forests, and the UL Certification makes it legal in burn bans across the US and Canada.**
Want to get really out there? Strap in the tank, strap it to your rig, and haul ass.

THE ONLY PROPANE CAMPFIRE THAT FEELS LIKE A REAL FIRE.
"Finally, an artificial campfire that doesn’t suck."
The HOWL R4 Delivered, period.
No other artificial fire does what the R4 does
The biggest leap in campfires since the lighter
BARCOAL® Technology
Real warmth in any weather. BarCoal is the world’s first radiant tube heater that's naturally aspirated and works entirely off-grid. With a 100% primary air combustion, the system is unaffected by wind, while the drain ports shed rain and snow. See how it works here.
EchoHeat Reflector Shields
Put all that heat right where you want it. With this precisely angled, electropolished fin, your torso and thighs will melt. Even your feet get toasty. But just 7” below the 1,300+ ºF BarCoal tube, the ground – and even the R4's legs – stay perfectly cool.
A-Flame Burner
After years of mathematical modeling and experimentation, this is the brightest, cleanest, most weather-resistant flame ever created. The wind screen keeps the flame lit without hiding the light down in a box, while the burner plate is precision-shaped to rapidly shed water.
PRESSBRAKE FRAME
Built to protect your Campfire in a dustup with a dirt road, the R4’s exoskeleton starts as a single plate of 12 gauge stainless steel. We cut it to shape with a fiber laser, bend it to form with a hydraulic press break, then stitch weld the corners to make them like angle iron. This bad Larry isn't built for a landfill. It's built for a lifetime, or maybe three.
JACKKNIFE FOLDING LEGS
Like the blades of a Swiss Army Knife, each leg folds out independently on a friction-controlled steel-bracket hinge. And like a Swiss Army Knife, there's no lock-out mechanism. That way, if your campfire takes a tumble, the legs can move to absorb the impact. The Type 3 hardened anodized aluminum construction steadies your fire. And when it's time to make miles, just flip them in for tight packing, and mash the gas.
Works in the Gnarliest Conditions Imaginable.
What does it do in strong wind?
BarCoal's air intake is completely concealed, so the system is unaffected by 120 mph winds. The A-Flame wind screen protects the base of the flames from gusts up to 60 mph, but if it does blow out, it simply relights itself from the BarCoal's hot exhaust.
How does it work at altitude?
Perfectly. The HOWL will keep you warm at any altitude on earth. The BarCoal relies only on primary air for combustion. Air density changes with altitude, but the momentum of the fuel jet draws in the correct number of air molecules regardless of air density. It creates a clean and complete combustion from Death Valley to Pikes Peak.
What if it rains or snows?
The BarCoal and A-Flame burners are self draining. Even after multiple days of precipitation, they light right up to make you warm. And if you get a surprise foot of snow overnight, no sweat. Just brush off the HOWL and fire it up.
Is there anything else like it?
Not even remotely. BarCoal is the world's first naturally-aspirated portable radiant tube heater. It makes you warm without fans, batteries, electricity, or anything else that can wear out or break. It's got the heat of a wood fire, but you can use it in places and weather conditions where wood's no good.
Make me Warm
Fold the legs. Strap it down. And haul ass.
Does the R4 MKii really keep a propane tank from rolling?
Yep. And good thing, since you can't get sendy offroad with an unhinged tank smashing around back there. The HOWL straps right to the tank, and together they ride stable like a cooler.
How do I strap it down?
The same way you would a cooler or bundle of firewood. Just run a ratchet strap through the StrapLock slots in the frame, hook the ends to your vehicle's tie points, and tighten.
Can I actually huck my truck with it?
If you can also land your truck, then yes. Strapped down correctly, the HOWL won't budge. The PressBrake frame is made of plate steel, so it's highly impact resistant.

Actually Hot. Like "back away or turn to toast your backside" kind of heat.
Why can't flames get you warm?
Flames make hot air, which rises and blows out of camp. That's why you get so uncomfortably cold around traditional propane fires.
What makes a wood fire warm?
Coals. Wood coals put out infrared heat at the perfect frequency for heating up water. Since you're made of water, wood coals make you warm.
Does more BTUs mean more heat?
Nah. A BTU is just a unit of fuel, like a gallon of gasoline. No one cares how much propane you burn, what matters is how much warmth you make. The HOWL burns fewer BTUs while generating way more usable heat.
How does BarCoal work?
The steel tubes get red hot and shoot Infrared rays with the same frequencies as wood coals. As your body absorbs those rays, your molecules vibrate faster, and you get HOT. Get the full story here.
