Backyard heater

We built this backyard heater around a 400V, 2500W halogen lamp—because when you want serious warmth outside, you don’t want a bulky beast taking over the patio. It’s all about packing a ton of heat into a tight footprint. Here’s how it actually feels. The lamp pulls real power—2500W on 400V—so it heats up fast and throws out a thick wave of infrared. The 300mm tube keeps that heat focused in a clear zone, so you’re not just warming the air—you’re warming the people. That said, it comes with a couple of real-world realities. Your electrical setup has to be ready for the load, and the mounting spot needs decent airflow. Keep things ventilated, and you’re golden. Built to take the weather. The halogen element sits sealed inside a quartz tube, tough enough to handle sudden temperature swings and whatever the outdoors throws at it. Inside, a reflective coating pushes more infrared forward, so more of the heat actually goes where you want it. And the R7s connector? It’s simple, solid, and meant to get wired up quickly without fuss—then stay put, even when things get a little shaky. Why it works out back. This is the kind of heat source you can drop straight into a well-engineered backyard heater setup. You get focused infrared warmth without giving up space, and the R7s connection keeps installation straightforward in the field. Expect high heat density—and plan your wiring, fusing, and cooling with that in mind. Do that, and you’ve got a heater that turns your yard into a place people actually want to linger.
