My brother has one of those Propane 'Space heaters' they work a treat. Only need it on for 5-10 min to heat the garage up and then turn it off or down as low as it goes. Toasty!

They do work well but they're surprisingly expensive

Interested in these products too, It must be electric and it must be wall mountable and no taller than 200mm (or longer if it can be mounted at an angle). 1500mm max length its to go above the door.
I've been looking at Tube heaters, squirrel have you seen those? |

You live in Swindon.
What you could do is abduct and imprison a young woman. As long as you keep her well fed her body heat should just keep the frost off. Be a bit of female company too ![]() HTH |

While The White Rabbits suggestion sounds like fun, I decided on the safer option of a Halogen Heater from Machine Mart.
Given it a quick try and it heats up quite fast just have to see if it can keep the whole garage at a nice temperature to work in. Plus the light it gives off also adds to that warm feeling. All I need now is some will power to fix the thing. |

I definitely recommend cordless will power these days, you can carry it around with you and it's there when you need it. Needs regular recharging though.

I use a Super Ser calor gas heater just to take the chill off - it's initially turned right up full for half an hour then knocked back to the first position, which holds the heat level about right all night while we're out there in all but the worst weather. There's so much ventilation in our garages that you don't get the condensation problems usually associated with calor gas.

If that doesn't work, you've already got the hole for a ground anchor.
Just watch out for petrol or other flammable fumes with the one you've chosen. You don't REALLY want a BOMB!
