I want to give him a gift.       > Which heat is better? Parabolic Ceramic (resistance, with fan)       > One "throws" the heat, as I understand it. The other "fans" the heat, as I       understand it.       > I'm worried that he's so old he'll hurt himself on the "hot" to the touch       parabolic - but on the other hand I'm worried the ceramic "fan" heater won't       throw enough heat to matter (since a garage is airy by design).       > Any suggestions?              The ceramic heater is the safer choice and spreads heat better in a drafty       garage. The parabolic feels hotter up close, but it’s easier to burn       yourself on it.              --       For full context, visit https://www.motorsforum.com/toyota_truck       /88-toyota-p-u-starting-problem-12612-.htm              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
