Heat is the normal byproduct of inefficiency in energy conversion. An electric heater is essentially a device which converts electricity to light with very low efficiency. The waste is what you want here.
And electricity isn't he same thing as electrons. Somebody could be confused about that right now.
That changes when you know that electricity is such quantities has to be made. Even though that's not inside your house, it's still part of reality.
Most of the heat produced by the inefficiency of electricity generation is wasted.
Try running a generator inside. You'll get more efficient heating for awhile. :-)
I know it doesn't REALLY make sense, but sometimes it seems that they ought to be able to make a unit that cools your house while generating as much electricity as it would take to heat it in the winter.
I lack the proper emotional state to be capable of trolling.
I just stated some facts. If you believe any to be in error, you could always post alternatives.
I am not arguing with you, I am only pointing out that your statements are not "Based in Fact"...... and as such, once pointed out, you should acknowledge that, and GO AWAY, untill you learn a bit more about the subject at hand..... and not "Parret" BS you read on the Internet....
You If it is on the Internet, it MUST be True......... NOT....

all this talk about vibrations I'm picking up. lets write a song about it. Oh yeah, the Beach Boys already did it:
I'm picking up good vibrations. She's giving me excitations.
I'm picking up good vibrations. Ooo, bop-bop, good vibrations.
She's giving me the excitations. Bop-bop, excitations.
Good, good, good, good vibrations.
I've seen a good vibrator get some girls really hot when I had to take a break. Some girls are worse than guys. :-))))))))

The electric utility also consumes energy on your behalf, so the total system use is still (probably) higher.
Light can be measured in watts.

Normally you measure it in lumens.
Lightning bugs / cubic metre.
Sorry for the mess up. What started this is that the wattage ratings on a light bulb refer to electrical consumption, not light output.
Like I just said in another post, I don't mind admitting actual mistakes.
a quick google search returned with thsi

Exactly! There has been so much nonsense and twisted thinking in this thread it is a joke.
Radiant heat is an electromagnetic waveform. Ever hear of Infrared?
Nick may be a bucket of volts but we get a charge out of him anyway!

The best way is to, admit mistakes, openly, for other people!
Exactly and although heat may be the lowest form of energy and all energy may end up converted to heat in the end, the heat may not be where you want it.
So back to the heaters, the >
My PV panels convert some light into electricity and produce no heat for those energy units.
Light is not heat and not necessarily converted to heat. What you feel from the sun is infrared electromagnetic radiation (arguably a form of light). You cannot feel the light from the sun.
