It's best to know what you actually need to be worried about.Technology Connextras (the second channel where I put stuff sometimes)https://www.youtube.com/@T...
The main safety features are a tip switch, thermostat, and a bi-metallic safety switch that physically pops open if it gets too warm. The “still dangerous” part seems to just be failure modes or poor operational safety. Don’t put it right next to something flammable and don’t overload the circuit.
Don’t know why you’re being down voted; it’s a 30 minute video. 😅
we’ve got one of the really cheap ones. less than 10usd, bought early-winter. it’s not big or powerful, just 400w–which is just about right for where and when it’s used.
it has a tip switch… i think those are mandatory these days… dunno about any other safety features. it doesn’t even have a normal thermostat. when it’s on, it’s on–so it does get physically unplugged from the outlet when it’s not in use, just as a precaution.
