Energy Transfer

Energy - Devices - Electric Heater.

An electric heater can be used to heat a water tank or a room.

An electric heater works because
a high current will cause a conductor to get hot.

If the heater does not give out light, then it is 100 % efficient
because any "wasted" energy will also be heat.
In this case, the energy is not wasted.
