Default Re: Belling Champion no.81 heater

You seem very confident that the bulb won't light!
I have various different bulbs in my examples. An ordinary 'fireglow' type gives spectacular results; you feel warm as soon as it's plugged in.
A ruby red bulb is nice in a bedroom. I have some ex-admiralty 'night vision' ones, and the deep red is very comfortable on a winter's night.
You can't go wrong with these, as far as heat is concerned. An all-time great design.
