[1] This heats up the air, which then leaves the heater, warming up the surrounding room. They can heat an enclosed space such as a room faster than a heater without a fan, [2] but like any ...
A 500-watt heater will take at least twice as long to reach the same thermostat setting as a 1000-watt unit; however, the total electricity consumption will be the same for both.

Typically, thick-film heaters are printed on flat substrates, as well as on tubes in different heater patterns. These heaters can attain power densities of as high as 100 W/cm 2 depending on the heat transfer conditions. [13] The thick-film heater patterns are highly customizable based on the sheet resistance of the printed resistor paste.
