Edenpure Portable Heater: Likes And Dislikes
Putting aside the cost factor for a moment, I'll address the "too little heat" complaint first.
Too Little Heat The results you get from a 1,500 watt heater, EdenPure or otherwise, depends on how it's being used. Bear in mind, a 1,500 watt heater is the equivalent of only 450 Btus. This is minuscule compared to a typical 65,000 btu oil or gas fired furnace. If you're depending on a 1,500 watt heater as your only heat source, it will heat only 150 - 200 square feet depending on how well your home is insulated, obstructions to the flow of heat, such as walls, and the outside temperature. Here's the basic "rule of thumb" formula for calculating space heater capacity: Watts/10 = heated space in square feet. Or: 1,500/10 = 150. However, if you use a space heater to supplement your existing heating system by turning back the thermostat and letting the space heater pick up the slack, you could increase the effective heating range of a 1,500 watt heater to around 600 square feet. Too Much Money I chalk this up to what I call the "furniture factor." You can either buy a space heater that looks like a space heater, or one that doubles as an end table. An even better example of the "furniture factor" is the electric fireplace. No matter which electric fireplace you look at, they all have the same 1,500 watt heater. Yet, depending on the design of the mantel piece, you could easily spend 2 or 3 times more for an electric fireplace than an EdenPure portable heater.

Flag Football Strategies - OffenseFlag Football Strategies - OffenseAuthor: Eric FieldsThis article will cover flag football strategies. I am going to assume you are coaching or playing 7-on-7 flag football. Offense in flag consists of a couple of key things, first misdirection. Misdirection is key for running an efficient offense. Reverses, halfback passes, and having your offensive lineman pass are some very effective trick plays. Those plays are a good place to start from. You can add your unique touches on these plays. Try to run a trick play once every 12-15 plays. Next, remember to use your offensive lineman for catching passes. |
