Granted your ceramic heater puts out more heat than a 100 watt light bulb

On what planet do your Laws Of Physics, reside...... 100 Watts is 100
Watts.... it doesn't matter if that comes from a light bulb or a ceramic
heater.....Ok now you say that the light output must be subtracted from
the 100 Watts, BUT, so does thew glow from the ceramic heating element
as well. Both are RESISTIVE Loads, both produce 100 Watts of energy
into the enviorment...Again 100 watts is 100 Watts...... back to High
School Physics for you.....

Since the heater is designed to put out HEAT and the light bulb is designed
to put out LIGHT I suspect there could be some differences. Go back to your
own high school class and learn some manners.

I was at Walmart about a month ago, on the Chinese side, the side
with no food. Can you buy Chinese food at Walmart? Well back to the story,
I was looking for a heater. If you want to have some fun, stay awile and ask questions
and make comments about heating. You will hear all kinds of things. Oh, this
heater will heat a whole trailor. I mean, a 1000 watts is a 1000 watts. Most people will
have a story to tell. Just like there is a low efficiency of producing sounds from a speaker,
its not efficient at producing light from resistances wiring.
I ended up buying an oil filled radiator, and also a quartz radiant heater. They
both work great. Need to buy another 1000 watt quartz for the basement. You can't feel that
radiator across the room though.
