can it hand a 1500 watt heater

I doubt it. I would look into another timer. I bought 5 in order to get 1 that worked.

I did use it on a small electric water heater of 1500 watts for a few times and it worked fine. I had it come on for about 15 minutes per day for a few days. The instructions say it can handle up to about 1800 watts.

Yes. The internal relay can handle 1875 watts. I personally used this with a 1500 watt oil-filled heater and have had no problems.

The printed directions say: 125V ac / 60Hz, 15A / 1875W resistive, 8A / 1000W tungsten, 8A ballast. They also refer to www.colemancable.com

Hello Kevin,I do not know what the max current for this device is! But by the power cord it looks like it should be able to handle 15 amps. I use it for heat lamps and also 1500 watt heaters and so far I have had no problems. But you might want to check with the manufacturer of the unit. I have a couple of them and planning on buying a couple more. They are really handy. Good Luck, Gary

According to the manual, on high heat it is 1500 watts. and 750 on low heat

A 15 amp grounded circuit can handle 1800 watts. This unit uses 1500 watts. I would not have anything else on the same circuit except perhaps one 100watt light bulb. I found my unit only heated within 3 feet,so I returned it. Maybe I got a lemon,but my heater was not an effective source of heat.

Depends on the amp rating of your outlet. You will need to be able to draw more than 4000 watts from the outlet to have 4000 watts available from the heater.

From all I read about it and the instructions it says 1500 Watts. Hope this helps.

it has 2 settings, 400 watts and 800 watts. It won't heat your 15x20 room...it's more of a spot heater at the 800 watt setting. If you want something that can easily heat up with those dimensions, I would go for a Living Pure heater that puts out 1500 watts and which radiates the heat in all directions I don't even use the oscillating feature because then the heat dispersion is uneven

There are two heat settings; low and high. They probably correspond to 1500 and 750 watts output. The thermostat will work with either setting.

Absolutely, however, 1500 watts is a lot for a small engine. I use a 1500 watt in my caterpillar loaders. Consider a lower wattage heater, unless you plan on needing it to heat up quickly. I use 400 watts in my smaller diesel engines, and they keep them toasty warm.

Yes it only runs on 1500 watts there is a way u can turn the temperature down

1500w - 2000w. If the heater is turmed on for longer time (hours or more) I would recommend 2000w.

It depends upon how long the extension cord is--my heater will trip my 15 amp power strip. As the other person suggests, for a long cord you need heavy duty.

Depends. The space heater will be the biggest draw. Best thing you can do is get a Kill-O-Watt meter (about $20) and measure each device's peak wattage draw. Add them up and see if they are over 2000 watts.

It's a nice little heater, however all heater use a lot of electricity. It is still a 1500 watt heater. Work good in a small space

depends on who provides your power but 1500 watts is like running 15 100watt light bulbs. works well for our 18'x18' bedroom. cheaper than heating the whole house.

Usually the watts rating is on the back of the plug. If the heater rating is less than this it will work.
