Ralph, if this is the same unit I just bought, it uses four bulbs to generate heat. Also, when you get it, you're going to have to take the thing apart to install the bulbs which are in a coregated box inside the unit. You can probably figure it out, but if not, let me know since I just did the same thing.

Don ----- Original Message ----- From: Ralph Supernaw To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, October 14, 2006 4:18 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] Quartz Infrared Heaters There is at least one other manufacturer of quartz home space heaters. We just ordered a Sun Twin which is a 1500 watt unit with oak Vanier cabinet. It retails for about $550 but we bought our for $450 on EBay. If there's any interest I can post after we use it some. We were deciding between the Sun Twin and a unit produced by Solar Cloud. The Solar Cloud heater used infrared bulbs instead of the quartz. As I researched I couldn't find much that would say the quartz is superior to the infrared. I did find that quartz heaters have a lot of industrial uses.
