ways to heat your room?

[jamie128]

A very random thought popped into my head the other day and i thought id ask pistonheads lol.

Is there anything you can put in a room, which doesent let off smoke (no chimney needed) and heats the room up?

Sort of like a huge candle with an extra thick wick in a metal bowl or something lol

Or a fan heater perhaps?

my dad said these cost a fortune to run?

[Gingerbread Man]

Flueless gas fired? They're ste though.

[randlemarcus]

Oil filled electric radiators.

Most electrickery heating is expensive to run, so get your gas CH sorted ASAP.

Heats room, doesn't give off smoke?

A radiator?

A 120w light bulb was all I needed to keep my living room warm at uni during the winter. A shame Europe decided that the heat it produced was a waste, really.

A radiator tapped into next door's central heating?

Or....

A few jumpers (one for you and some for guests).

An exercise bicycle would help you to keep warm.

Crap in a bag and hang it round your neck.

[Laurel Green]

Fill the room with duvets.

[Accelebrate]

Big TV, desktop computer, do some vacuuming? Lots of Zippo hand warmers?

[GarryA]

Plasma TV.

[Mobile Chicane]

Buy a tent, set it up in the middle of the room, climb in and zip it up. Your own body heat will soon warm the space.

[Laurel Green]

Hamsters, lots of them, in cages, running in those wheelie things. Should create some heat if enough are employed in doing so. Mind, noise might be a problem.

[SystemParanoia]

light a disposable BBQ

[Mobile Chicane]

Tea lights (lots of them).
