When it comes to heaters: Perception is NOT reality.
5000 BTUs is 5000 BTUs. It is the measurement of heat. Now a small heater that doesn't move much air, will feel warmer.... So long as the heat is directed at you. But it is NOT warming up the TT overall any more than a heating source that moves a lot of air at a cooler temp.
There are advantages to both approaches. BUt overall, long term the heat in the TT will be the same.
