sorted byYou also need to consider that it won't be running at maximum for the majority of the time. It will get hot, then turn off until it's cooled down a bit. In reality it's going to be much less than 50p an hour over a day. (edited)
Just sharing in case anyone appreciates single voice, unscientific, subjective opinions.
Oil filled radiators are better for longer hours than fan heater as they keep their heat.
Electricity costs a lot per kw but don't be naive and thinking 2 kw per hour x hours x 34p. As mentioned above they turn on and off depending on the setting. Use a power monitor if you can.
I got the above mentioned 2kw one from Toolstation with the timer etc for about £36 to replace a higher model Russel Hobbs I got from Currys for £80. I had to return the Curry's as it was noisy! Anyway the Russel Hobbs in 600w mode was way hotter than this Toolstation at the same 600w setting and it retained the heat way more!
2 appliances taking the same power giving different results, probably down to oil quality, design, metal used etc so I totally understand a Delonghi being better.
Like @vulcanproject says hotukdeals.com/com…953
run them on low setting overnight in a bedroom for kids or any vulnerable people to keep the worst of the chill at bay especially for respiratory function, winter & cold air are nasty for it esp with any pre existing medical condition/s.
I have a oil radiator in the lounge 15/60m for when I’m using it and a halogen heater for instant heat (the room doesn’t seem to heat up anywhere near well with the GCH radiator!)
That's only true if you live in a shed with no roof. They've a thermostat on the side. They'll only turn on if the ambient temperature is less than whatever settng you've chosen. There's also three power outputs. It doesn't particularly matter which one you choose, if the thermostat isn't activated, it won't use any power.
These are a great tool for maintain a minimum temperature automatically. They are designed for single rooms, not whole house heating. Great in bedrooms overnight. Unless you've spent 1000s on smart radiator valves throughout your house, your boiler isn't the best choice for heating a single room.
Would it make sense financially to buy one of these to heat a small room for a few hours instead of the central heating or would it just burn through the leccy rather than the gas? Thank you (edited)
I’ve switched all my CGH radiators off except bedroom and bathroom (can’t be turned off).
I’ve cut down the night gas usage but I have a Russell Hobbs oil rad set up like this in bedroom and a electric blanket on the bed as it gets cold with radiator off all day I simply switch GCH/bedroom radiator on & oil one and the electric blanket on for 15/20 mins whilst I tidy up/face wash & brush my teeth, switch the GCH/bedroom radiator & electric blanket off when my teeth are brushed and jump in to a cosy bed/room.
Cosy bed time, only problem with this set up is I don’t put GCH in auto for mornings now, so invest in a long polyester dressing gown that’s got a high percentage of polyester as by design it’s plastic and retains heat.
I’ve got my oil radiator on a manual timer switch of 15 mins every hour like I used to have my GCH or the whole flat, I’m a cauld Tattie and if the bedrooms too cool I start wheezing-snoring lol. (edited)
