I will be interested to read the replies on this, too, because I am looking at A frame trailers.
I have used a radiant electric heater (baseboard type, not oil filled, but they all put out the same BTU's at 1500W AFAIK) in my previous 14RB hardside trailer, and it kept up just fine. My 14' box was pretty close in size to the A frames, so I think the difference (if there is one) would be in how well the seals between the panels holds in the heat.
