Default BTU's per dollar
Excuse me. As always I must immediately correct myself: There are
3412 BTU's per kilowatt hour.

1 BTU per kilowatt = 1.05505585 seconds.

The problem with all these
words is that they are measuring something different.

There are 3412 BTU's of heat per kilowatt. A radiant heater without
fans is pretty much 100% efficient in converting electricity to heat.
