Despite the wailings and gnashings of gums by the climate scam plonkers, Scrobs occasionally gets bewildered by the clickbait about electric heaters that appear on the pages of the online rags...
I've given up using an open fire for the time being - it's a real hassle making it all work, and clearing ashes etc., is a hurtful chore these cold mornings, as, after all it is January! The fuel is so expensive nowadays, thanks to the mad issue of importing the stuff from Australia, and it is in fact cheaper to use an electric heater, albeit more wisely and where and when appropriate!
So apart from the very gratefulness of the gift of an electric throw from a daughter for Christmas, I use an electric blower heater to complement the 1,000 year old SEEboard storage radiators, which still somehow work - occasionally. All in all, with a bit of exercise, survival is OK even in these temperatures, which are of course, ignored by the Co2 manics!
Thus, on the pages of the erstwhile online Daily Express, I spotted a rather neat deal on a rather neater ceramic blower heater, at a knockdown price! It looked like a real bargain, as because one small blower here is showing signs of age, and going a bit brown at the edges, I sought to investigate further!
Several advertisements later, my mind was almost made up, and the Amazon button wasn't far away from a tentative mouse-finger! All I needed to do was to see if I could find another heater in The Turrets, to see the wattage, and how big it needed to be for a quite large room! I thought that the model I'd seen was pretty swish, and how nice and warm I'd be at the flick of a switch! So I searched for the offending soon-to-be-retired machine, already thinking how perfect a shiny new dark grey, ceramic heater would look!
Bugger me, I already had one - we'd bought it a couple of years ago and I'd completely forgotten about it...

We find convectors are quite good for warming up a room, bigger but generally less noisy than fan heaters.
