>>wattage divided by voltage = amperage.



Oh yeah, I remember that formula. I knew it was something easy like that.

>>Chris...my advice for what it's worth... if your service box is not too far from your herp room. For a lot less than $50 you can run at least one dedicated 20 amp circuit.



My herp room is very close, just a few feet away. In fact, everything on that ciruit is within 11 feet or so.



Is the distance important because of the type of wire?



In other words, if the outlets, etc. were a long distance away then it would not be worth a 15 amp circuit?



I'm starting to think it will be easiest if I move the fridge indoors, turn off the ceiling fan (I really don't need it in the winter anyways), and just run the space heater and a couple of lights off the outlet.



I'm shopping for a house so it really does not make sense for me to put too much money into this.
