Thank you for your inquiry. The BN450M is a relatively small unit in terms of capacity. It is rated for 255 watts or 450 VA. We would not recommend connecting an electric heater into it, but the unit should be able to support the TV and game console without issue.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would expect this unit to be pretty small for an electric heater. These are not designed to stop circuits from blowing, they are designed to keep your devices powered up when the circuit does blow. Electric heaters generally take a lot of energy and probably wouldn't last very long on a unit as small as this one.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You'll need ot buy a unit rated for the power you attaching to it. A 450 Back-UPS will fail with the load you indicated. I use these to keep a cable box and an LED TV running for a couple of minutes. A heater is too much for one of these. A game console should work, but a game console and tv will be close.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thankfully you didn't burn your house down. Do Not Plug An Electric Heater Into A Battery Back-Up! That's what Generators are for. These only provide so much power for a limited time. An electric Heater is basically a controlled short circuit to generate heat. This requires a whole lot of power as long as it is on. You power shut off instead of trying to kill you.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, it will not knock your power off, but if you exceed the wattage rating on the load, you can trip a breaker. The electric heater may be too much, however, the other two should be no problems depending upon the size you purchased.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
