The Lumus heater is an innovative personal heater designed for use by outdoor workers. The heater is designed to warm up one person at a time with its unique design that uses a heating coil and fan to create a "cone of warmth" for the person standing atop it.
The Lumus heater is safer than other personal heaters as it doesn't run off of compressed air or gas and cools down the moment you step off. The heater has a rechargeable battery and can also be used while plugged into the wall. The Lumus heater could go a long way in raising the morale of workers whose only way to beat the frigid temperatures has been to pack on layer upon layer of clothing.
