Best portable heater (30 amp) for my rv?
Would appreciate anyone who has a ceramic or other type portable heater to chime in and tell me what brand they have and if they feel it does a good job heating. My rig is a 32 feet Class C. thanks...

I like the ceramic's because they are small.
Portable Electric Space heaters are unique in all of the electric/electronic world as they are 100% efficient. The Reason for this is that all losses become heat so since heat is the desired product they are 100% efficient
OH I know some folks will talk about the fan. but the fiction of moving air creates heat. So that's recovered
or the GLOW from a red hot element.. Absorbed by surfaces it impacts and converted to Heat.
So TECHNICALLY it makes not difference.
Now some.. may do a better job of moving air and that may make you feel more or less comfortable.. but they are all 100% efficent.
And 12.5 amps (1500 watts) is a bit more than I care to put on most RV wiring. THe wires (14ga) are up to it but the "Unibox" or "Quickbox" type outlets.. The connections are often NOT up to double digit current.
Two 750 watt on different circuit breakers.. Should be no problem though .(less than 10 amps per line).
