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.
It depends on the cost of electricity and the cost of natural gas in your area. Generally, using a 5000 BTU natural gas heater is cheaper than using a 1500 watt electric heater. Natural gas is typically more cost-effective for heating compared to electricity.
Look on your power company's bill and find out how much you are being charged for a Kwh. It could be anywhere from .04 to maybe even .10 per Kwh. 1500 watts is = to 1.5 Kw. Say its .06/Kwh then 1.5 x .06 = .09 cents. At this price it will cost you .09 cents for every hour you operate the heater.
a 1500 w heater consumes 1.5 kW, and used for 1 hour it uses 1.5 kWh of energy, which costs 1.5 x 9.1 cents, that is 13.65 cents.
1.5 kW "Kilo" means 1000, so a 1500 W appliance uses energy at the rate of 1500 W / 1000 = 1.5kW. By the way, you probably do not mean "kilowatts per hour." A watt (or a kilowatt) measures the rate of energy use. Rate units already have the time parameter built in: for example, "kilometers per hour" is a measure of one's rate of travel. What you may mean is "kilowatt-hours," which is what the unit the electric company uses to figure your bill. If you are in the UK, which averages about 7p/kWh for electricity, the fireplace will cost you about 10.5p each hour you run it. In the USA the average cost for electricity is about $0.12/kWh, so the fireplace will cost you about $0.18 every hour.
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
It as charged a penny for a word.
Usually much smaller. A normal freeze plug block heater is about fifty bucks.

Approximately $1500. to $1800. Depending if you wanted a radio, heater, or back seat.

To calculate the cost of running a 2 kilowatt convector heater per hour, you need to know the electricity rate charged by your utility company. Let's assume the rate is $0.12 per kilowatt-hour. In this case, running a 2 kilowatt convector heater for an hour would cost $0.24 ($0.12 x 2).
To calculate a cost in kW/h a time interval has to be stated. How long is the 400 watt heater going to be on in a 24 hour period. You also have to state what you are being charged from the utility power company per kW/h.
Electricity is sold to consumers thru meters that record kilowatt hours: 1000 watts turned on for 1 hour= 1kwh or kilowatt hour. If cost for 1 kwh = $0.10, then 1500 watts for 1 hour would cost 15 cents. Varies by location of the country. Check your utility bill for exact cost per kwh.
