The most truthful/helful review
What we have here are extremely unrealistic expectations by reviewers. They are ignorant as to what they are buying. Here is what to expect - look at the wattage. This unit and similar (cigarrete lighter ones) are about 180 watts. I use one of these in my car when I first turn it on to warm up my hands or face. This unit is ONLY 180 watts...it will not heat up anything other than a few inches in front of it. I use it when I get in my car on frozen Minnesota winter days to take the "sting" off the long walk to the frozen car. Once the car warms up I shut it off. People here reviewing are faily clueless so here is what you should expect..take a hair dryer...1200 watts. You should expect about 1/7 of the heat from a hair dryer. Watts is watts people!!!

I do not receommend the product to anyone.
