\nNOTES FROM THE VIDEO MAKER:<\/b>
\nI do not think the size of the flower pots makes much difference – as long as there is a passage between them for the air to flow up – once hot it does move pretty fast due to convection – as I explained in the words.<\/p>\n

Yes, candles do give off C02 – but how many people do you know who have had a nice candle lit bath or shag and completely failed to suffocate themselves with Co2 or poison themselves with CO.<\/p>\n

However: Do not go to sleep with candles on<\/b>.<\/b><\/p>\n

They are candles and it is a naked flame – keep an eye on it – do not add loads of extra candles.<\/p>\n

Feel free to post that this will never work because you have to factor in the cost of driving to IKEA in your Mercedes<\/p>\n

or that this will never heat a 5,000 square feet house in Canada in February.<\/p>\n

As it says in the film this is for a home office – you can see it is a small room where two computers are running – I earn my crust editing videos.<\/p>\n

Feel free to point out that your room is bigger than mine.<\/p>\n

This is the web – you can say pretty much what you like.<\/p>\n

Yes cats might knock it over.<\/p>\n

Thanks for the thermodynamic lessons from the crypto scientists. Agreed there is not much energy in a few tea lights but this makes the most of anything that is available by getting a nice convection going – it like the difference between a radiant one bar fire and a convection heater – more air movement – fewer cold spots. In the winter I have it down to one side of my desk on the floor on a steel tray – not a copy of PBO.<\/p>\n

Blimey there are some dozy people on this planet<\/p>\n

– but there are also some pretty nice people and I have had some lovely emails –<\/p>\n

If it makes any difference to anyone at all I am not earning a brass farthing from this vid as I am not in adsense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
