I resumed my search this fall and found what I think meets all my requirements:
- small and lightweight
- low and high levels of power, up to 1500 watts (~12 A)
- no fan noise
- not radiant dish heater that makes hot spots
- not too expensive
- decent reviews
Crane convection heaterThis has two switches, each for a 750W coil, you can turn or either or both. You can turn the fan on (for quick heat up) or off (for overnight quiet). Also has a timer and thermostat. It's the size of an attache case, so it fits neatly in the storage area and the heater elements are protected as they're not exposed. Available in white, red, or black exterior
It's available at Amazon, Lowe's, Home Depot, Bed Bath & Beyond, Kohl's, Sears, Walmart, Walgreens and a number of other places if you want one too.
:) Happy
