You should look into toyo kerosine burners. I have a monitor heater in my home, and its considered the failure form of the lot, but the damn thing works. Something like 93.4% thermally eff. :S

Apparently, according to 'Al' you can burn off-road diesel and all sorts of petroleum distilates in them as well, mixing kerosine to keep the diesel from gelling.

Used oil heater ftmfw.

According to "Al" anyway. Most people's 441's are still running fine.

So it's gonna be somewhat warm and smell like stinky shoes in your room. Sweet! By the way, is that a Honeywell fan? I've got that some fan. I'd just go out and by a fan with a heater in it. Their pretty cheap compared to the price of burning your house down.

oil radiator heater + fan behind = forced air heater
