My family has a little, one room cabin at the back of our property. It's fairly secluded and it wouldn't matter if I wanted to watch a loud movie when the rest of the family is asleep. The problem is that the cabin is not hooked up to any of the household utilities. Power and Cable should be no problem, my concern, however, lies in heating the place.
The room isn't very large, probably 10'x10', so it shouldn't be any problem to get it heated when I want it, but I'm concerned about keeping it warm. I live in Montana and we can have -20 weather for a week or two at a time. I have considered a space heater but I've been told those would be fairly expensive to power 24/7 and are also potentially hazardous to leave unattended. The same with a ceramic heater. I then realized that my car electronics do fine all winter long so I began thinking that maybe it would be alright if I just ran the heater when I was up there. The only problem is, I don't have a tube t.v. in my car to test out. Would it be okay to leave a t.v. exposed to the elements like that or is it best not to test it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
