I want to schedule a space heater to turn on a couple of minutes before my wife wakes up and turn off in 20 minutes. I’ll be in the bedroom the whole time so it will be attended. We basically want the room to be warm upon waking up. I did some searching and only saw old posts about this being unsafe. Wondering if there are any new plugs that can handle this?
Been doing this for several years in my house.
My home office is in the basement, gets cold in the winter. Immediately when motion is detected in the master bedroom in the morning (and it’s a weekday and the outdoor temperature is below a certain amount) the space heater will automatically kick on for 1 hour to warm the room up.
I also have a Zigbee switch setup right at my desk that I can hit to pop it on again for a 1 hour interval during the day if I want.
