Is there a difference in energy production using the outside ground as compared to using the inside plug on a wall socket?

I started using the inside wall socket plug in but lately prefer the outside grounding. It really seems to make a difference.

You can choose either way. I've done both. I like the versatility of plug in, although it is 220 volts so you need a 220 outlet wherever you choose to put it. I have one in my basement and one in my garage so I can move the heater when I'm in one or the other place. I'm usually not working in both spaces at the same time.

It seems to work better when plugged directly into a wall outlet in my opinion

Earth calm wall plug-in is supposed to "clean up" dirty electricity. I can't tell a difference ($300). The earthing products (mat, sheets, etc,) have changed my life. They literally connect you to the earths energy, uploading ATP directly, it grounds all electrical wave pounding your body, healing and recovering my body from intense exercise within a few hours. I now wake up completely revived even though my mind wants to stay in bed, I can't. I can't recommend any earthing product high enough. Or for free you could go outside barefoot.

it gives it more power but you have to get a 15amp extension cord so you don't burn up the unit. The outdoor cord is the best . I handle all the 19/and 1/2 inches of snow with no problem. However I do recommend a support belt for your back because you have to push the unit, this will prevent any injury or unnecessary pain.

I don't use it. I use a longer outdoor extension cord since my umberlla table is not near an outlet.

I didn't use the one I bought so I returned it. But... I wouldn't hesitate to use it outside, as long as you wrap the connections (each end) with electrical tape, or better yet use heat shrink tubing. We used lights under the toe kick of the island in our kitchen. This cord was to be the connector from one side to another, but instead we just continued the LED lights thru the cabinetry to get to the other side. Hope this helps.

Warm is OK. Hot is not. Even 1-2 watts of power dissipation will warm a plug sufficiently that you can feel it, but is perfectly safe. Given that this heater draws 1,500 W, it's likely that this amount of power is being dissipated at the plug. The very small resistance where the plug touches the socket contacts is sufficient to cause this. And given that the purpose of this device is to generate heat, it's not like it's 'waste' heat either!

The inside and outside the joint of the power adapter is how much, how much is the output

I suppose does not exist any problem if you have an electric outlet. The source of energy does not matter.

This one is plugged into a wall socket. The battery powered ones are weak in my opinion and do not last as long.

I don't believe the amount of power needed makes any difference. It just acts as a connector between the power cord and the outlet, if that makes sense. So it connects them and cuts the circuit on and off at the designated times. I've been using mine constantly for several months now and it still turns on and off at the exact times I set it for.

It is better to have a little extra power, than to max out a smaller unit. Also depends on how long the device is running... if it is on all the time a a slightly higher unit will work better in the long run.

There is two prongs with the ground for a regular wall outlet. This is not a large electric stove plug if that is what you are asking.

I'd like to know this also. My understanding is anything induction-charged isn't very energy efficient. Convenient and safe, yes, but not energy efficient.

My wife and I use ours daily and lobe it. Regarding your question, I would check with a reputable shop that sells electrical supplies. You want to make sure that anything between the unit and wall outlet will handle the electrical load without overheating.

Yes, the USB charging circuit in this outlet does use power even when nothing is plugged in. I tested by wiring a Mastech MS8264 digital multimeter in series with the hot lead that powers the outlet. With nothing plugged into the outlet, the multimeter read 0.42-0.44 milliamps at 120VAC. Note that this is not a true-RMS multimeter; the actual power draw was probably more like 0.66 milliamps. That's less than 1/10th of a watt, which might be so little that it doesn't matter to you, but it is definitely nonzero and does add up over time. For comparison, I also measured a FastMac U-Socket, a competitor to this device. The U-Socket reading showed about 2/3 of the current that this one drew (with nothing connected to either device). I chose to keep this one because it is easier to fit into a gang box and seems to have a sturdier USB port design.
