Power, Size, and the Kind of Heat You Actually Feel
Here’s the thing about these patio heaters: we built them to work hard. They run on 400V and crank out 2500W of power. That kind of punch means serious heat density, packed into a compact 300mm quartz tube. It’s simple physics—more watts equals more infrared heat. You get a bigger area warmed up, without taking up a ton of space. And it’s engineered for direct radiant heat, not the kind that just warms the air.
The Inside Story: Tough Materials, Solid Connection
Inside, you’ve got a halogen-filled quartz tube. That’s what lets the filament run hotter and brighter than standard elements. Even if the outer surface gets splashed, the heat stays consistent. Then there’s the R7s connector. It’s the standard for this size, and it locks in a secure, double-ended connection. It handles the high current without wiggling loose or sparking. And the wiring? Same as the original. So it’s a true drop-in replacement—no hassle.
Where It Shines—And What to Keep in Mind
This heater was made for rough environments: patios, workshops, outdoor service areas. It throws a focused infrared beam that warms people and surfaces directly, not the open air around them. But there’s a trade-off you should know. That 2500W output creates a lot of concentrated heat, so you’ll want to plan where you mount it and make sure you’ve got good ventilation. If you need fast, focused radiant heat in a small footprint, this setup gives you the muscle to get the job done right.
