Recommendation for small oil filled heater?

The heater arrived today. About the size I expected - doesn’t take too much room in the tent. Here it is in the 3x3, which should stay a little warmer moving forward, though I’m happy enough with growth so far. Had to pull a fourth plant to make room, but that one was a genetically flawed anyway. Nice fit for this little heater otherwise.
Does this have a thermostat? If not, could the heater stay on all of the time and kick off when it hits the target temp with a smart plug thermostat?

Yes, it has a dial for heat level (though not a thermostat that shows actual temp) and will kick on when it gets below temp. I’ve left mine on for entire grows; doesn’t need to work too hard in my 3x3.

Mine arrived today and I’m going to put it in my tent once my lights come on. Any advice since you’ve been running it for a while?

I’m thinking I’ll set it on lowest setting, but I’m not sure if that would be enough with all of my airflow since my tent pretty much stays the same temp as my basement.
