Keilini Heater Pro: does the plug get warm?

Mine does get a little warm at the plug, but only after it’s been running a while. I noticed it more in the beginning because I kept touching it to check. After a few weeks I stopped paying attention. What I did notice is that the outlet matters. In my older bedroom outlet it felt warmer than in the newer one in the kitchen, so I just use the one that stays cooler. Still using it most evenings since I got it. The rotating plug is the part I actually like, lets me aim it without fighting the outlet placement. So yeah, warm plug seems to be part of how it runs, not a sign something is wrong.

Mine gets warm too but only right at the prongs, not the whole plug block. I’ve had mine about four months now and it hasn’t gotten worse or anything.

If it were me, I’d just plug it in and check after an hour or so, since you’ll know pretty quick whether yours runs hot at the plug. Mine has been fine in that department. I’d honestly be more picky about which outlet I use than the plug itself.

Warm plugs aren’t automatically a red flag, they’re pretty common with anything drawing that kind of power from a wall outlet. Mine has run for hours in my craft room and the plug body stays cool, only the metal bits feel slightly warm if I actually poke at them. If the whole block ever gets hot to where you can’t hold it, that’s a different story.

A warm plug is not automatically fine either. I had a different plug-in heater that started out slightly warm and after a couple months the plug got noticeably hotter, so I stopped using it. If it’s just barely warm that’s one thing, but if it’s actually hot to the touch I’d send it back.

I’ve had mine plugged into a hallway outlet since January and the plug stays basically room temp. I only really notice it if I’ve had it cranked for hours, and even then it’s mild. My preference is just to keep an eye on things the first week and go from there.
