[QUOTE="johnb2713, post: 546556, member: 35153"] The above assumptions also apply to AC, it's not on taking full load for hours, it doesnt take full power all of the time, it switches on and off. Cheap fan heater as you say are often 1kW or less, good ones are typically 3kW. My 5.5kW AC unit in my office is currently taking 525w continuously having got down to temperature, it was taking 1900w for 7 minutes to get down to temp. [/QUOTE]
