Watts is the amount of power the heater has and amps would be the draw- if it is a 120 volt heater than the amps would be 12.5 amps and it is instantaneous
For a general cost ,A 1500 w tank heater will be $103.00 per month. Go to morgransou.com/energy calculator, then click on farm equipment.
1 kw = 1000 watt 1.5 kw = 1.5 x 1000 watt = 1500 watts
Depends upon the voltage. At 110 volts, 800 watts = 7.27 amps. At 115 volts, 800 watts = 6.96 amps. At 120 volts, 800 watts = 6.67 amps. At 220 volts, 800 watts = 3.64 amps. Just divide the wattage by the voltage to determine the amperage. (You can also divide the wattage by the amperage to determine the voltage!)
There are 1000 grams to a kilogram, so your answer would be 1500 grams.
This depends on a number of factors. Are you talking about a central furnace for the entire household or a space heater? How long is the heater being run each time it is turned on? How often does the heater need to turn on to maintain the temperature at 74 degrees? If it is a central furnace, is it fully electric or does it burn natural gas to heat the air that the electric blower cycles throughout the home? How big is the home (this helps in giving an idea of the size of central furnace and therefore the power requirements for the burner and the blower)? If the heater in question is a space heater, what wattage does it require at its chosen operating capacity? (For example, my space heater for my bedroom can use 1500 watts of power but if I set it to low heat, it burns only 600 watts instead.)Without much more information, there is no way to give an appropriate answer to your question, unfortunately. What I can tell you is that in my home, since the weather has gotten cooler, I have seen my electric bill increase because of running the space heaters periodically. They seem to consume anywhere from 10 to 20 kilowatt-hours per day, depending on whether I am using one or two and how much they are used. Around this area, that equates to between $1.30 and $2.60 per day since power is about 13 cents per kilowatt-hour after all taxes and various fees are added into the bill.
A ceramic heater uses the same amount as a regular heater. Most heater use 1500 watts so in one hour a 1500 watt home heater will use 12.5 amp hours.
1300/1500 watts
Edenpure heaters produce 1500 watts. It is an electric heater, which uses quartz heating element to generate heat.
1500 watts... Average electric bill is $0.98/ killowatt hour (1000 watts an hour) So it wil cost around $1.50- $2.00/ Hour to operate
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.
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.
1500 watts
To put it into perspective a 1000 watt base board heater will heat a 10' x 10' = 100 sq ft room.
1000 watts = 1 kilowatt 1500 watts = 1.5 kilowatts
1500 watts is equivalent to 5118 BTU per hour. 1500 watt-hours is equivalent to 5118 BTU.

I don't know what exactly you mean by a "heat mat", but your question is kind of backwards. You don't run an electrical device *with* watts. You run them to *produce* watts (watts of light, watts of heat, watts of sound, etc). I believe the thing you are really asking is how many amps are required to run your device. As an example, consider a "1500 Watt heater" that is made to be plugged into a typical wall outlet in your home. The voltage in the wall is 120V, and the heater will produce 1500 watts of heat when plugged into that 120V. To calculate the amps, you divide the watts by the voltage. 1500W / 120V = 12.5A
