Awning heaters

"quite heatedly"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣  

 How apt!😀

I would look at radiant halogen type heaters rather than a fan heater or oil filled radiator type.

A radiant heater is usually on a pivot and heats up you rather than the surrounding air. We got ours from our local dealer and has three heat settings up to 1200 W and in our experience far better than a 2 Kw fan heater and very effective. Ours has a safety feature that switches it off if it is tilts and falls over. I suppose a bit bulkier so bear that in mind.

It also has a lovely red glow!

prices range from about £20, just googled this one here

I have not used an awning for  years. Prior to that I used one for 7 years. The only time that it was heated in anyway was during our 15 night December chill out/Christmas evasion every year. I limited my heating use in the awning to Christmas Day and Boxing Day when, after lunch, I would treat myself to a large cigar and a Large drink. The fan heater would go on, 2KW, aimed directly to warm me up - not the awning. At most 4 kw used in our 15 night stay. 

What a lovely picture you describe Easy T, sitting in the awning in the warm with a large drink and a cigar. brings back happy  memories of our christmas
