Yes you can.
Current (amps)=Watts/Volts =2000/120 =16.75 =16.75 amps
The BTU is an Imperial unit of measurement for energy. The watt is the SI unit for power. The BTU and watt measures different quantities, so there are no 'BTUs per kilowatt'!
One joule per second equates to:One watt or,0.00134 electric horsepower or,3.412 BTUs per hour.
It depends on the source of DC that is powering the inverter. Since the inverter is 2000 watts, that just means it will handle your 1500 watt application. At 120 VAC you are drawing a little over 12 Amps. If this is an inverter plugged into a car it will run until the battery runs down, whose time will be lengthened if you keep the car running. Your battery will have an Ampere per Hour rating. If for example you had a 50 AHr battery it could supply 50 Amps for an Hour so your heater would run for about 4 hours.
btu = 7500 watts * 3.14 btu / watt = 23,550 btus / hr
To convert a watt to BTUs, the factor is 1 kilowatt of power = 3412.1416 BTU/hr 3.412 BTUs equal a watt. 1200 watt = 4094.4 BTUS you will need to remove about 4100 BTU/hr

1500 watts is equivalent to 5118 BTU per hour. 1500 watt-hours is equivalent to 5118 BTU.
A 2000 watt heater draws 8.3 amps on a 240 v supply, so the cutout should be set to 10 or 12 amps. <<>> In North America a 2000 watt baseboard heater will be fed with a two pole 15 amp breaker. A two wire cable of #14 copper will be used to connect the supply voltage to the heater.
Number of BTUs not relevant to this. A 1350 watt heater is 1.35 kilowatts. When operating one hour, will consume 1.35 KWhours. 1.35 x .07= your answer per hour.
To convert a watt to BTUs, the factor is 1 kilowatt of power = 3412.1416 BTU/hr3.412 BTUs equal a watt.AnswerYour question is meaningless, as these two units measure different quantities. The watt is the SI unit of measurement of power, whereas the BtU is the Imperial unit of energy. So watts cannot be equated to BtUs.
Answer1 kW is 3,413 BTUs. Therefore, 1500 Watts = 1.5 kW and 1.5 kW x 3413 BTU/kW = 3 413 * 1.5 = 5 119.5 BTUs per hr for a 1500 Watt heaterwhat is the electric cost/
A 1000 watt generator cannot run a 1500 watt ceramic heater without having problems.
A 50 watt heater is major over kill for a 3 gallon tank, a 10 watt heater is more than enough for a tank that size. You will nuke your aquarium very quickly the first time the 50 watt heater sticks on, with a 10 watt heater if it sticks on the aquarium temp will only raise a degree or two.
I would not try to heat a tank any larger than 8 gallons with a small 50 watt heater. The difference in price between a 50 watt and a much more usful 150 watt heater is not much. I'd check things out before I got a very small heater that may have to work very hard to do its job.
