E=MC2 deals with nuclear physics./reactions. Magnetism is a wholely different but related force. Electricity and chemistry deals with the (-) electrons circling the (+) nucleus. A 1500W resistance heater gives off 1500W or 5115 BTU. No more, no less. The only way to “gain” is to use a heat pump to “move thermal energy”. These Amish heaters are some of the most refined snake oil I have ever seen. A 1HP single phase motor drawing 12 amps at 120V. Puts approx 746 watts of power on the shaft, 360W of waste heat blown out the cooling grill. And circulates about 3 amps as reactive power which does no work but heats the wires/windings. Reactive power is also why small portable generators which “appear to be just large enough”. Won’t run the intended motor, welder etc.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
