1500-Watt Radiator Used: https://geni.us/9cHWS8I
Did I make a massive, $15,000 mistake trying to heat my well-insulated shed with only off-grid solar power? We built a 12×16 shed office and installed an insanely capable 6kW solar system, but when winter hit, we quickly learned the truth about trying to heat a shed completely off-grid.
In this video, we put a 1500W electric radiator to the 24-hour test to answer two essential questions:
1) Can a standard 1500W electric heater heat a 12×16 insulated space? (Yes, it can!)
2) Is off-grid solar for heating a viable solution? (The answer might surprise you!)
We break down the real cost of heating the shed using grid-tied power ($3.17 per day) vs. the massive, energy-sapping demands of an off-grid system, showing why an expensive 6kW solar system still falls short during overcast, winter weather.
