The point I was trying to make is while the models you speak of require
no electricity, people should be aware there are some which do. and for
more than the fan.

The term is one I heard to indicate an ability to have a gas heater be
able to run without an outside source of electricity. Don't know if
the terminology is accurate.
Lopi gas stoves makes a great one:

The pilot light is lit by an onboard sparking device and then is kept
open by an electric-generating thermocouple. While there is a blower
fan to help distribute the heat, it isn't necessary to produce keep
the fire on. They are very efficient because they only burn outside
air so none of the inside room air is lost through a chimney. The
added bonus is that these models actually look like a wood fire
burning due to some very creative rockwool placements.
