This is why I love my oil-filled electric heater - NO VISIBLE FLAME - NO VISIBLE RED HOT CORE - NO BURNT DUST SMELL - NO NOISE...
Has to be very RV safe around curtains and rug rats...
The only down side I have ever encountered was when someone turns them UP to full heat setting and overloads their cords/receptacles/breakers etc...
I run mine no higher than a mid sitting #3 I think it is...
Been most safe for us over the past ten years of using them in our RV's. I have an oil-filled heater ON as we speak in my parked OFF-ROAD POPUP using one of those Cold Weather Thermo Cube Thermostatically Controlled Outlets model TC-3 that comes 'ON' at 35 degrees and goes 'OFF' at 45 degrees.
Just my thoughts...
