What Is Cyber Heater?

Cyber Heater in one minute

Most plug-in heaters sit on the floor with a cord trailing to the wall. Cyber Heater is different: the whole heater plugs directly into the outlet, so there's no cord to trip over and it takes up no floor space. You set the temperature on its bright LED display, choose a timer if you like, and it starts blowing warm air within moments.

It's designed for people who are cold in one room — a chilly bedroom at night, a bathroom on a winter morning, a home office where you sit for hours — and don't want to pay to warm every room just to fix that.

How it works, in 4 simple steps

1. Plug it in to any standard 120V wall outlet. The plug swivels 180° to fit most outlets.
2. The ceramic element warms up. Ceramic heats quickly and spreads warmth evenly.
3. A quiet fan moves the heat out of the front grille and into the room around you.
4. The thermostat and timer take over. It works to hold your setting (up to 90°F) and switches off when the timer ends.

The features, in plain words

• LED display: large, easy-to-read numbers show your temperature setting.
• Adjustable thermostat: pick the warmth you want instead of just "on" or "off".
• Auto-off timer: peace of mind if you forget — it switches itself off.
• Overheat protection: it shuts down automatically if it ever gets too hot.
• Safe-touch housing: the outside is designed to stay cooler than the heating element inside.
• Quiet fan: a gentle hum you can sleep, read or watch TV with.

Who Cyber Heater is for

• Retirees and people at home all day who want one room cozy without heating the whole house.
• Bill-conscious homeowners who'd like to turn the main thermostat down a few degrees.
• People who feel the cold more than the rest of the household.
• Anyone with a "cold room" — over a garage, at the end of the hall, or with old windows.

And who should choose something else? If you need to heat a large open living area, a garage or a whole home, a larger heater or your main heating will serve you better. We'd rather tell you that now.

A typical day with Cyber Heater

• Morning: plug it into the bathroom outlet farthest from the sink, pre-warm for a few minutes, and step out of the shower into a warm room. See bathroom tips.
• Daytime: move it to the home office or reading room, close the door, and keep the rest of the house cooler. See office tips.
• Evening: warm the bedroom before bed, then switch it off when you go to sleep. See bedroom tips.

Cyber Heater vs. other ways to stay warm

Does it work, and is it safe?

Yes, it works — as a personal heater for one closed room. It won't replace your furnace, and we'd be wary of any ad that says a small plug-in heater can. Read the honest answer in Does Cyber Heater really work?

Used correctly, it's a safe choice: plug it straight into a wall outlet (never an extension cord), keep about 3 feet of clear space around it, and switch it off when you leave the room or go to sleep. See our full safety guide.

What does it cost to run?

Every electric heater's running cost depends on its wattage, your electricity rate and how many hours you use it. The savings come from zone heating: warming one room while your main heating stays lower. The U.S. Department of Energy notes that turning your thermostat back 7–10°F for 8 hours a day can save up to about 10% a year on heating. Estimate your own cost with our energy cost calculator.
