Selectable 600 Watt, 900 Watt, or 1500 Watt
Divide the power rating (in watts) by the voltage (in volts). So if you use a 100 watt light bulb in a typical 110 volt lamp then it will draw 100/110 = .91 amps of current. Or plug a 1500 watt electric heater into a 110 volt wall socket and it will draw 1500/110 = 13.6 amps of current.
With a room that has 8 foot walls the usual formula is 10 watts per sq. ft. Divide 1500 by 10 will give you 150 sq feet of room that will be comfortably heated with a 1500 watt heater.

Take the plug in your hand, and insert the plug into the wall outlet.
A 1000 watt generator cannot run a 1500 watt ceramic heater without having problems.

Yes, a 1500 watt heater operating on 120 volts has an amperage of A = W/V. Amps = Watts/Volts = 1500/120 = 12.5 amps. It is not a recommended practice to do so.
What it costs me to run a heater does not depend on how much you are charged, but a 1500 watt heater would use 1500 watt-hours or 1.5 kWh for every hour it is run. Run for 24 hours it would use 36 kWh, also known as 36 units.
