For warmer (non snow and ice) days use a 2 or 3 gallon pump up garden sprayer spray painted black. Sit it out in the sun in the morning and it will heat up really well during the day. I've used that camping and at a friends off grid cabin.

Edit: Take the spray nozzle off and put on a kitchen sink type spray handle instead, the OEM sprayer doesn't work out well.

I'll see your pump-up shower and raise you a rocket stove. I'm part of the Starkville civil war artillery unit so my hobby is acting like it's the 1860's.. They had tin cans in the civil war so who is to say some enterprising soldier on one of the two sides didn't build one of these. Using twigs about the size of pencils, I cooked two pieces of bacon, fried an egg, boiled grits and made a slice of toast before the rest of the guys in my unit had the camp fire ready to cook breakfast and we started our fires at the same time. Also, you can use this in your carport or garage if its raining. Took about 45 minutes to build.

ETA: This isn't for heating because it won't heat jack. You may could warm your hands over the top but odds are you would have to get so close that you would burn them instead of just warming them. It is strictly for cooking and it's very efficient since all of the flame/heat is focused directly onto the bottom of the skillet.
