Low-wattage space heater

Plenty of heating cables available for keeping pipes from freezing or reptiles from getting too cold

Or two in series. A lot less power, and they will last very long...

And if it's a quick fix just for now: a candle, even a 7-day memorial candle?

Vast price difference in pricing between Chinese and European suppliers. How can such a product be available in 5m interval lengths?

You wrote "socket", not "lighting socket". That's the second time you've misquoted yourself.

Stop digging. Start thinking.

Try one of these, it has a minimum 5degC thermostat setting:

A standard bayonet fitting would be more useful, as you're more likely to find an incandescent lamp with that fitting lying around.

How would plugging an incandescent lamp into a light socket be bad?

"made of material, and practical"

That's good to know

Metal light fitting and property built during or before the 1950's without a CPC, and no RCD ?

I didn't misquote myself, dumbo. I merely made what I said slightly more explicit since you clearly hadn't grasped what sort of socket I was referring to. Which should have been obvious - how many people have an empty light socket in a porch in case they want to plug the iron in, eh?

And don't go pretending you thought I might have meant lighting socket originally - unless you are the sort of person to plug a heater into a lighting socket.

Search me. Ask Mr. Able, it's his idea to do so, not mine. I'm looking for a heater, which, natch, plugs into a wall socket.

Don't rise to his trolling, Max. The more he posts, the more he shows his verbal impotence.

Adapter are £2 from Amazon.

If the heating is done by resistors (resistance wires) in parallel, then there can be as many as you require. Assume every cm there is a 230kohm resistor across the live and neutral. Every cm will therefore provide

Is that how they work?

One of the e-bay adverts proudly mentions the use of copper wire!

So parallel conductors set in a marginally conductive matrix?

It took some time to find, but from
