    And the ceramic heaters are absolutely not meant to run non-stop. When I was reading the safety warnings on the one I use in our living room it says to only run for 6-8 hours. That wouldn't work in a snake room where it would be running every day as much as it needed. Oil heaters are fine left running all the time, they are almost completely metal, those ceramic ones are almost entirely plastic. Just a word of warning.
