Question Cold Sensitive?

I forgot that a small 750 watt convection heater is adequate for a medium-sized closed room.

Here's a modern radiant heater (at 800 watts) at Amazon that will warm up an entire living room:

I've mounted mine about 7½ feet above the floor, and removed the wire guard for more heat transmission.

To double your heating capacity, aim it at your wood stove. It will re-radiate heat long after youve turned the radiant heater OFF!

Even in Florida, I'll have chilly days at the computer. Try a small heating pad under your feet, but wear shoes or slippers, as it'll be HOT.

Everybody's different, but if my feet are warm, I'm a happy camper!
