I have looked at a site comparing halogen heaters and oil filled rads and similar devices
It appears you are correct if the halogen heater is kept to 500k kW or thereabouts
So I stand corrected
I therefore intend to have a small oil based rad in my pit of sleeping death and a 500 kW halogen heater in my front room
I think I am uneasy with that naked heated element of the halogen heaters and wouldn't like to leave it on for an hour in the way I would an oil rad in my room
If you can convince me they are safe then I will get two of them
If you have a link to your low energy model then that would be appreciated as I don't want to end up in the burns unit at Morriston
Cheers
