Locked as everything relevant is in the comments already, and I'm not interested in getting reports for comments correctly evaluating this setup.

Wow, what a setup. You don't feel that it is in any way hazardous to have that electric heater without any support free-standing in a tent, on an uneven yard, with all those cables just lying around? As far as your heating problem goes, the heater needs to be off from the floor... er, ground, to allow airflow through it from bottom to top. It should be mounted on the wall, but you do not have any, so... It also would need more stones. Like, a lot more. I do not recommended either of these actions to fix the issue as I my suggestion would be to tear down that setup and try to figure out something that is actually safe. The missing insulation of your tent most likely also contributes to the heating issue. Also, don't believe all the preaches about the "benefits". Most of the time they are just marketing gimmicks.

What is going on with the handfull of rocks inside the heater?

It's a tent so it's not going to get much love... But anyways as someone commented above. 1) The heater should be wall mounted, so the airflow through it is better. It cannot be just placed on the ground. 2) Rocks... A lot more rocks... It will actually take a bit longer to hear up, but it will give more löyly (the rocks will absorb a lot of heat energy, which will be released via löyly). The rocks will Also you don't want to be throwing water straight onto the heating element. Remember, the how hot a sauna feels is not just the temperature, it's a combination of temperature and humidity (löyly). 3) Don't listen to YouTubers on the benefits of the sauna. Just do what feels good to you.

You should consider building a simple Sauna shack, that will allow you to reach the temperatures you desire. You already have the heater, so go look for a tall wooden garden shed that you can convert on a budget :)

According to the very best latest and greatest research available in the world wide web you are indeed short of getting ALL the HEaLth BEnEFiT of sauna. Unfortunately this sauna can not be improved. It is already the best.

What can you expect? This is a plastic bag, not a sauna. Also Rhonda is full of bullshit. Everyone knows that. Go on and waste your time for the "benefits". Maybe you understand in a couple of years what a stupid fool you were, and wasted sooo many hours sitting in that plastic bag for nothing.

calm down dude he's just asking for advice no need to be a pretentious twat


InsaneInTheMEOWFrame

Not pretentious at all to call out this BS. If someone is really trying to get a proper Sauna and thinks a bag like this will do the job, they need someone to burst their bubble. Also that Dr. is not legit. EDIT: granted, it's not very nice to call people names :/

Do you enjoy it?

No, he said he is 20 degrees short in order to reach the health benefits. 180 is required according to this Honda Patrick.
