13:43.43DocScrutinizer05whitequark: ((remember you argued about incandescent vs CFL/LED)) I don't remember, but my general take on that is: you better use incandescent light than a mere heater-blower for heating, isnce the light can do really valuable work and in the end the heating effect per kWh is the same
13:44.45DocScrutinizer05why just heat your flat with electricity when you can heat *and* grow cabbage with same amount of electricity
13:45.40DocScrutinizer05or you use a heat pump (inverse AirCon) and multiply the efficiency by factor 2 roughly
13:47.02DocScrutinizer05an electric heater is about the most wasteful inefficient device you could come up with - it uses the most expensive energy to produce the least valuable result from it
13:47.58DocScrutinizer05but yes, you better use any other energy than electricity for heating purposes
13:49.00*** join/#qi-hardware jwhitmore (~jwhitmore@88.151.80.134)
13:49.03DocScrutinizer05ideally use heat that's "waste" otherwise and elsewhere, like the heat they need to get rid of in steel cooking or whatever industry
13:50.14DocScrutinizer05this also is the idea behind incandescent lamps (except for my shower heater which I planned to build from a 200 incandescent lamps instead of a heater-blower)
13:50.48DocScrutinizer05I'm not really interested in the light they produce. But then this whole thing would operate only a 10 min per day
13:51.50DocScrutinizer05and I'm pissed that incandescent lamps are no longer available for such purposes where I explicitly want to use them for heating
13:53.47DocScrutinizer05the result is: I'm not building this fast-kick-in heater and thus have to keep my bathroom at 20°C all the time since the normal heating takes literally hours to heat it up only ^°C
13:53.53DocScrutinizer051°C
13:54.19DocScrutinizer05which costs me real money for the wasted energy
