Look on the back, directly behind the digital display, is the tilt sensor. If you remove the same end on the light, then remove the 4 screws that holds the control panel cover, it will expose the 2-wire circuit that leads to the tilt sensor. Unplug the small white connector (at the other end of the tilt sensor) from the board and it will remove the tilt sensor and the panel will work as normal.
does this Dr Infrared Heater DR-238 come with a floor stand? I don't want to have to mount it on a wall, ceiling or tripod. I would contact the company but they are going to be closed for a few days. Thanks.
I have this same brand of heater but mine gabe me a tilt switch code everytime i would point the heater straight down. It had to be and a 45 degree angle. Do you know how i can fix that?

You won't even feel it if it gets to sub zero temperatures. It's not powerful enough, you would probably need at least 2 of them directly in front of you.
It does work indoors. It has a heating coil encased in a glass tube which heats to temperatures well above 700 degrees F @ level 3. I use mine to heat my home office, while the rest of the house is at the thermostat's set temp - which for me is under 60 F during my workday.

This is so helpful showing the power draw at @4:00 !! I've been so curious about this.
So this will be perfect for inside your garage.. im making a lil hang out spot in the garage.. was looking for something not to expensive
What is the covered red button (behind display panel) for?
When I have it upside down like you have it on the video mine automatically shuts down. How can I make it stay on?

My garage ceiling is about 14' tall.. think this thing would heat objects being that far away? Or would I be better to get a tripod?
I think you're better off with a tripod at that height.
@@aaronstestlab Thank you for the reply!
Hey Aaron... why is "packaged in tons of cardboard" bad for the environment?
because climate change n pollution
Would something like this work on a outdoor porch in northeast winter being about 5 ft away? Something for outdoor cigar smoking
As long as it's pointed directly at you.

Nope, returned it. It just doesn't put out much heat.
there are only so many watts available from a residential outlet
Why don't they heater work for indoor
Its a IR heater. It heats objects. It wont heat up the air. For indoor its better to get a standard space heater.

@@anekinoo7 Nope.
It is more efficient and only heats objects/people.
