@@JackRabbitFPV Thanks Scott for the Inadvertent video Idea! 😉 Hopefully it starts to warm up for everyone, I'm tired of winter brother.. I'm still trying to figure out if I can make it to the next SFDM or not. I'd love to catch up with all you guys.. GREAT community!! Thanks for watching bud & catch up with you soon. ✌️🤝
Your exactly right with what you said. Retired electrician/lineman now but I could tell you about Ohm's law, Kirchhoff's law and even my mother in law's law... but I won't take it that far..ha!
The only good way to measure heaters is over time. Try all 3 times and measure usage over an hour and measure heat maybe. Most heaters are nearly 100% efficient. Energy to heat. However the oil filled radiator will probably work best over time. Fan heaters use constant high draw to send constant heat. Oil filled or ceramic can cycle a bit as they have a mass they head up to radiate the heat out into the room constantly. but overall since most heaters are close to 100%< efficient...they all will put out about the same amount of heat per watt consumer.
The ones that use more power put out more heat. The electricity is converted into heat. That's where the energy goes, into heat. They all have about the same efficiency.
One thing to note, electric heaters are 100% efficient, all the power they consume is converted into heat. So a heater that is consuming 600 W will produce half as much heat as one consuming 1200 W.
Fair bit of energy getting used Joel 👏🎥👍
@@jimthorleydronefootage Thanks for watching Jim! Have a great rest of your week my friend 🤝
Good information Joel and I appreciate the shout out. Stay warm. I think today will be our last day with snow here in the south.

Hi Joel 🙂Thank you for sharing! Great to see you again. 🤗
Hi there Alison! Always nice to see you too & I hope you're doing well. 🙏 Thanks for stopping by & watching! 😊🤗
@ Anytime Joel! I hope you’re well also!
The oil heater wont consume power like that continuously. once it's heated up it starts cycling on and off.

@@Dave-yr3of Yes I agree 👍 Thanks for your input
To be a fair comparison you should have let the oil heater get to operating temperature.
@@jimfields9491 Thanks for the input 👍
