Optimus H-6003 Portable Oil Filled Radiator Heater, Mini Perfect for a small bedroom as on my boat where everything has to be small. This heater is tiny so I did not expect it to put out much heat. It would not heat a large room, but it does a wonderful job on a medium cabin. Since it does not have a fan it is quiet. So far I have not had to turn the heat setting past medium. I run the heater continuously and it keeps the room at a level temperature.
Broan-NuTone (6201) Big Heat HeaterThe name is 100% correct on this one. The heater is small but mighty. We ordered this when the temps dropped to below 5 degrees. Our apartment is horribly insulated and the central heat was barely keeping our living room at 60 degrees. This little monster kicked in and helps to hold the temp at 72.
Caframo True North Deluxe 9206 120VAC High Performance Space Heater"This manufacture makes heaters for West Marine – which I have 3 of. When I was in need of another (new travel trailer) I found getting them direct was cheaper than West Marines’ price. They have as many features on a portable heater as your going to find. I like the fact they lay prone. No chance of kicking them over. I trust them to stay on unattended in my boat and beach cabin as well."
Saved my engine from damage after a low spring frost after I summarized. I mounted base to a cedar 1x6 that placed it heater down in my engine compartment and held in place by engine compartment lid. Senses temp and turns on automatically.
