In the US the max a 110v outlet can pull is about 1500W so 700W is 50% or so for what’s available. I’m with you though, those heaters are a stopgap at best. Base layers and clothes/blankets can help a lot though.

These also exist they’re tables with an electric heater and a blanket attached (kotatsu). It won’t do much for your upper body but they do a good job keeping your legs and core warm.

edit: everyone says kotatsu, that’s great

Thanks very much for the writeup, encouragement and advice. I’m in the planning stages right now and anything to prepare helps a lot.
