    I bought a very similar heater from Northern Tool about 10-12 years ago. I use it in my garage/shop every winter when I'm in there. With a well-sealed insulated garage door, it'll raise my 2-car garage from around 45F to 65F in about 30-45 minutes. Since there's no combustion, there's no CO concerns and more importantly there's no moisture added to the air (which is important because cast iron surfaces like jointer tables are slow to warm up so they'll condense moisture and rust).

    Edit to add:

    Mine has a thermostat that has a constant fan option, even when the coils aren't powered. I recommend you use the constant fan option. Those coils hold a lot of heat. So leaving the fan on does two things: 1) When the heater turns off, it pushes that remaining coil heat into the room where it's useful and 2) if you leave the coils to cool on their own, they'll fool the thermostat into thinking the room is warmer than it actually is so it'll take longer for the heater to kick on again...leaving the fan on cools the coils quickly so the thermostat doesn't get fooled.

    Things like this are used for when a human is in the space. Unless you plan on being in your garage 24 hours a day. A common use case for these might be a weekend project for a few hours. So like 40 cents that weekend. And that's assuming it's running constantly the whole time you're out there, which it won't.

    Is a great deal on a car or truck not slick because gas is expensive?

    This is a good price on this unit.

    Man, everyone's already got warm clothes. This is for people who want to step up their garage space.

    I got a 10k one a while back when building my DIY golf sim in the garage, on cold days, I run it for 20 min or so. I did not hardwire it, as I have a Nema 14-50 for charging, so got a nice thick cable for it. Definitely not cheap to run but I'm not sure who would run it for extended period of time, unless your garage is not insulated at all.

    I think it's cheaper to move to Florida than it is to run one of these in California. Our electric rate from SDGE (San Diego Gasp and Extortion) is almost 51 cents per kWh (including delivery). That's roughly $2.50 per hour to run it.

    Dang. In SC, I'm paying some 12-13 cents, which I thought was high. Shows what I know.

    Unless you have free electricity and access to 240V in your garage, this is not deal. 5600 Watts is going to cost 50 cents an hour to run even at 10 cents per KWh. So it costs about $5-10 to run every day. Not a slick deal.
    i dont think is a good choice to run as a full time heater, however, I have this in my basement, and use it for 15 mins to take the chill out of the air, and works amazingly for that reason. i will pay $1 to make my basement comfortable for several hours, to shoot pool, or darts with friends in my little man cave.

    Some states have winter rates that are lower. It can make electricity comparable with natural gas or even a bit cheaper.

    I know this is only $100, but long term if you use a garage for a workshop, wouldnt a heatpump HVAC make more sense if you already have 220v and the garage is insulated to some extent?

    I guess it is like getting a "deal" on a SUV then using it to drive to work. Yeah, a Ford Fiesta would get better gas milage for the commuting though....

    I guess the question is... Would this work well for a garage gym? Perhaps a 1 to 1.5 hour workout session.

    An alternative is a kerosene heater…I still have my dads from 20 yrs ago. Works solid and used it quite often to heat an area I worked 7to7 daily con the winter.

    Just keep a few extra fire extinguishers on hand (I have 18 from the last lowes ymmv deal but comes often)…I've yet to have a fire incident.

    Rather than this, just buy an old Bitcoin mining rig. It costs just as much, pump out heat, and you'll at least make some of your money back in mined BTC. 🤷 You also don't have to deal with resistive heating (assuming this is), which isn't dangerous around fuels/vapors.
