A method and apparatus for induction heating or vaporization of water, oil, or other fluids. An induction heater system includes a ferrous heat tube, an induction coil extending around the ferrous heat tube, an induction drive, and a controller to regulate the operation of the induction drive or a fluid supply or both, to heat or vaporize the fluid.

A portable heater system including a pressurized air source, adapted to convey ambient air through an electric resistance heater, to provide heated breathable air, and a controller adapted to control the electric resistance heater and the pressurized air source. A generator, driven by an internal combustion engine may be provided to power the electric resistance heater and the pressurized air source. The portable heater system may be embodied in a light tower.
