I have a piped hot water system for my central heating as well (like most people in the U.K)

Maybe if you won the lottery.....

If anyone is interested in this heater I found it on sale at Northern Tool for $46.99.

Here is a link:

Thanks for the link. From their formula I need 532 BTU's to raise my tear 20 deg. Now I need to find out how many BTU's a 12 volt 300 watt heater puts out. Any idea? :thinking:

Danny,
300 watts = 1024 BTUs

Thanks Chuck. It looks like that heater would cook us right out of the tear. :phew:
