Here's the low-down. Electric Infrared Heater, Indoor/Outdoor, 3000 Watts, 10236 BtuH, Voltage 240, 12.5 Amps @ 1 Phase, Height 3 3/8 In, Width 5 1/2 In, Length 57 In, Beam Pattern 60, Number of Lamps 1, Housing Material Painted Steel, Anodized Reflector Finish, Mounting Ceiling Hung, Agency Compliance ETL I know we've all heard this before. Anyway, according to my calculations, this heater shouldn't cost me any more to run than my old electric space heater. It was 1500 watts at 120V. It 12.5A. At least it was until it died. This wone draws the same amps; but, is so much warmer. Terry
