Space heaters in general are a much less efficient source of heat than burning a fossil fuel. It takes a lot of electricity to generate meaningful heat.

No matter what, you're going to see a sizeable uptick in your electric bill if you're using one of these things. But if it's only to be used at night, then you likely only need to heat the room just a couple degrees, so the additional electric bill might not be too terrible.
