which is not that bad if you want to warm your room a bit. The heat is not wasted, but added to the room. We use 250 watts to warm under the coffee tables. These are infrared-coated incandescent bulbs

What if it's a hot summer night? :)

My point was about efficiency of the generation. You want the light, you don't necessarily want the heat.

Save heating for the (efficient) heat pump.
