    The product, in the report: Beyond Heat ~ Dual Quartz Radiant Heater. (Black) 12 W x 22 7/8 H x 8 3/8 D 120VAC 60Hz 1500W Made in China

    My electric space heater made a loud noise similar to a welder arc zapping. I then saw a bright glow of orange through the air vent on the top side. This is separate from the heating elements. It was on fire on the inside! Thank God it was in my garage! I unplugged it, picked it up, while the orange glow continued, and carried it away from everything. I inspected it and it died down to a small little flame that I was able to blow out from the air vent.
