    Thank you! I cannot discern a difference between the two? I am not picky on color, both are 1410 Jouls.

    Only difference is color....pick whatever one you like & matches the decor the best.

    Thank you! :yes: I ordered one of each to meet the prime shipping deadline. I will install one for the stove and the other on the kitchen island for the computer. I had planned on using a GFCI but this appears to be safer, I mean Gooder! I can use the GFCI's in other places, now that I have one solitary safe fuse panel with labeled breakers lol:rofl: :lol: I very much appreciate the tip:handshake:

    DONE! How funny, I did not bother to open the box and assumed I had to hardwire the outlet. LOL I was relieved to see how easy it was!

    dear husband saw the shrink wrap when it was delivered and was thrilled to use it on totally different project he was working on. :rofl: :lol: I think the pellets will be fine in the pole barn without it.

    imacman, thanks, I just used the second on my kitchen island on for my computer and bar strip. My new computer is finicky on bar strip (internal surge protector), but running like a champ on this surge protector. THANKS!

    Those cheap bar-type power outlet/surge protector units are mostly garbage. Good for adding some extra outlets.....not much else.

    Are you having second thoughts on the Eco-65 purchase?

    For anyone deciding? Look up the Osburn 7000 price or the Enerzone Euromax.. Then look up this link to the Eco-65. The 7000 has more bells and whistles (like my Enerzone Eurostar), but for heat? The 65 will do just as well!!
