King heater works great
I really like this King 120v heater. It is a fair bit bigger than most 1500W heaters and so it works well with a fairly slow fan. Thankfully it does not sound like a hair dryer!I suppose they call it a garage heater due to the bigger size and steel case. The large heating coil takes a few minutes to get up to temp as well as cool off. Thus the fan won't cycle as much as would those of the little plastic box heaters. The coil never gets red hot - good for safety and longevity. The only issue I've had is the fan takes a while to get up to speed when the fan is cold. So if the fan is at 40deg when starting...you may need to run the heater a few minutes and turn it off. The heat will get to the fan and it will speed up.I spent 45 bucks on it and I'll likely buy another soon. I like the metal case which is elevated off the floor. Even with a major electrical failure, burned up parts will likely be contained with little heat transfer to surroundings.I eventually added a digital switch to one of my King heaters. When in use it is typically running 24/7 in my RV trailer. Will attach a photo. Not the prettiest install but it works and the accurate thermostat is nice.Some should also realize you can only get so much heat off of a 15A circuit. These King heaters could put out a little more heat but not a lot without tripping breakers. I am pretty sure two of these were tripping a 20A circuit.While it would be great if the quality was better, these are the best I've found for 120V heaters which I trust to not burn down my trailer or house.
