Electric heaters for travel trailers
Can someone provide some information on they type of electric supplemental heat you use in your RV. This is in lieu of using propane over extended stays.

I believe you will find that it is illegal to sell any small electric heater that DOESN'T have a safety shut off switch for tip-overs and the like, and has been so for enough years that you will be hard-pressed to find one, even in the junk stores.
In any case, while there are different kinds (IR, oil-filled, ceramic, etc.) they are pretty much all 1500 watts and do the same job with pretty much equal efficiency.
I have two such small 1500 watt heaters I bought a couple years ago for $15 for the pair at Wally's or Target or some such store. They work fine. One of them lives in the TT, one in my office in the sticks 'n' bricks.
