    The cognac I can afford, the models I dunno, but best idea so far. Do oil heaters not put out fumes? The ceramic heaters don't. Thanks for the ideas. Will check a few out this weekend.

    The ones above are sealed units. The oil is heated by the electric heating element and the oil will hold the heat which is transferred to the housing and into the room. No fumes.

    I have a nova slot processor 16x20 and 20x24. I keep them at 100f. My darkroom is nice and warm.

    The most sensible solution so far, although the Swedish Bikini team would be more to my liking

    +4 for the oil filled heater, it won't stir up dust like the fan ones do.

    No fumes on the oil heaters.

    I used to own a 2 bedroom condominium that had electric baseboard heaters throughout with thermostats in each room (liviingroom/diningroom, kitchen, bathroom, each bedroom). It could get quite hot if you cranked up a thermostat!

    Space heater, and suit up with a thick jacket. Nothing like having your dektol at 55*F.

    Another vote for the oil filled heaters shown above. Cheap and effective.
