IIRC the largest electric heaters sold are like 1500 watts which is something just over 5000BTU. A propane salemander heater is something like 50,000 BTU...
Which reminds me, I've got a kerosene one on the farm, I should bring that to my house. It doesn't do much good on the farm since theres no electricity to power it... -Curt Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2007 16:00:58 -0600 From: "R A Bennell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Oil draining and sucking To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" I have one of those electric construction heaters with a coil and a fan in the middle. However, my garage is uninsulated and the ceiling is open to a big attic. I need to close the ceiling off and put some insulation in. Then I could probably warm it sufficiently to work in there a bit when I needed to. Wouldn't be hot but does not need to be. A new garage door wouldn't hurt either since mine is metal and not insulated. Just another one of those projects that has been on the list for many years. When it is warm enough to work on it, one does not and when it is too cold, one wishes one had done so. I used to be tougher too. I can recall changing the thermostat in my wife's car when it was -25F with a floodlight bulb in a socket hung over my hands to keep them from freezing. I think now I would just take it too a garage and have it done but a few years back I did it all myself. Randy --------------------------------- Never miss a thing.
