    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.

    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.

    Everything is more expensive in California. But yes, we get spoiled paying probably 10-11 cent/KWh here. Still expensive to run something like this.

    Skeptical something like this would really heat up a garage. I just bought one of those Mr. Heater propane heaters and it's loud but damn that thing works and works fast. If you have a garage project in the winter it's a good way to go.

    Quote from rlin78 :
    you are better off with a Radiant heater that you can target an area in the garage where you are working. Ever wonder why they have radiant heaters at subways and bus stations?

    It's almost 50 cents an hour to operate, not a whole weekend. I do understand the purpose of this, but I wouldn't call it a deal.
    Radiant heating would be good if you're only trying to spot heat for a period of time. These types of heaters are typically intended to heat a space - comes in handy when you're working with paints, adhesives, etc. I've done work with fiberglass and resins where I don't mind paying 10 bucks/day for heat for a few days while something cures in the garage.
