I'd like to see a study on efficacy of the various types of heaters at heating and maintaining a constant temperature in a closed area. I would think that an oil filled one would be better in that it would heat up the area and then maintain it by keeping the volume of oil at temperature by periodically coming on, whereas a resistive type would fluctuate allowing the area to cool, then blasting on when the set point is reached and repeating the cycle.

Well I can give you an efficacy report of the 'furnace' heater in my MH! :B
Heated tanks.....that's what the sticker said.
Yup, they are heated alright. They take half of the heat vent in the bedroom and rout it to the tanks.:R
Freezing temps my tanks are all snuggly warm while my bedroom and my butt inside the MH is freezing cold.
Who ever sleeps in the bedroom jacks up the thermostat to stay warm and those up front wake up sweating to 100 degree temps.
