A standard outlet is 15 amp. It is VERY unusual in typical construction to have a 20 amp outlet - which requires larger wire, 12-2 instead of 14-2, and a larger 20 amp breaker in the electrical panel. THUS ANY HEATER plugged into a standard outlet is limited to 15 amp. Standard voltage is 110 volts, so 15 x 110 = 1650 watts. They always leave a slight safety margin so at 110 volts limiting the amperage to about 13.6 amps - which can be safely used in most 15 amp circuits without tripping older and slightly tired 15 amp breakers. Now if you REALLY want to warm a space in most temperate climates use a de-humidifier. The heat released by the motor PLUS the heat of evaporation released by the condensing water is GREATER than 1500 watts AND when you remove the water from the air a LOWER temperature feels warmer. In the fall and spring, a couple of 15 amp de-humidifiers in the basement of a typical residence coupled with turning on the fan only of the furnace can effectively SHORTEN the need to have the furnace on by 2 to 3 months saving many $$$ in fuel costs. Plus THEY WILL NEVER CATCH FIRE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE.
Only good one was the Dyna-Glo WK24BK 24000BTU, the others all put out a max of 5120BTU, your just paying EXTRA for pretty decorative ones!😱😱 Best electric is the tallest tower heater you can find, more radiant area!😁😁
The unit heats up fast and is super quiet. It looks fancy ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxl8Od2BvnGbn1ffwqsuFXW0QnmcZgMiVY and can be kept in the living room. It gets hot within a split second of turning on the unit. The build quality is exceptionally good and is safe to be around kids and pets. This one is super quiet and can be kept on while in office meetings, my wife loved it. It shows the temperature right on the unit which is very useful and adding a rotating feature helps to heat up the surrounding, so other people will not fight with you for heat. It is right as described in the description..!! Definitely recommend!!
If something "throws" a breaker it's not the devices fault usually. It's not knowing how many amps you are trying to pull from a single circuit on that breaker. If you do the math of all the devices connected and could run at the same time on the same circuit then you can guarantee you will never blow a breaker.
I like how these geeky Goofy videos always downplay everything they talk about that's supposed to be the best if you don't have the best make videos that are the best

Dehumid sounds good but what about folks with touchy sinuses?
Only the Dyna-Glo WK24BK 24000BTU in this video would put out more heat!😁 all the others are limited to 5120 BTU , just have different features!🤣🤣🤣

Do they throw breakers?

Used to use a turbro in our basement. House caught on fire.
0:44 It doesn't *_produce_* 1500W of power -- it *_uses_* 1500W of power. Opposite
This product is very nice Turbo
