Recommendations on low wattage heaters?

[Benjic93]

Benjic 93 what is the size of your shed and the tent inside or how is it set out...???

@Rawreefer I'd say the shed itself is roughly 6M Long 2M high 2M width ROUGHLY.... tent itself is 1x1x2m.

This is a shitty pic of the tent. I do have a 2kw radiator in the middle of the tent. Just looking for something lower wattage that would keep up the temps.

Do you have room above your tent? Even 50mm or something? The majority of the heat goes out of the roof.

Last winter I've done something else. I've used the heat produced by my dehumidifier to keep the tent warm during the lights off period. Which was a win win combination - Low Humidity, Perfect temperature, Low Leccy consumation ( 300w)

That's something I havnt got yet, a decent dehumidifier. I've only got a small one. I'm going to need a good one eventually. There's just no room in the tent for one unless I can get rid of the radiator for the dehumidifier. It's the prices of them that put me off. I suppose in the long run it's cheaper leccy though

Literally about a 10cm gap top of the tent to the shed roof stuck a duvet ontop yesterday lmao. Temporarily until I go get proper insulation

That is because your heat is escaping somewhere. You need to make it prisoner

I noticed at least a 5 degree difference when using a 1FT long in a 2x2 tent.

I've read that man, don't know if I'd get a tube heater. Because I'm in a shed, the heat would probably escape pretty quick

Inside a sealed environment I could probably see the benefits but in my environment it might not make a difference

You do not need room for the dehumidifier in the tent. What I've done with mine is...agh..it's so hard to say it...I've copied Keeno......I've duct taped the open part of decent black bin bag around the part where it blows the warm dry air and then made a hole at the other end for the ducting which goes into the tent. This way it blows warm dry air inside the tent and doesn't take up sapce inside.
