Long story short I need to heat my home with electric heaters this year, minisplits and hvac are way out of my budget. I’d like some help picking a solution.
Choice A: Micro heat pumps
Choice B: Multiple PTC Fast Heating Ceramic Heater

Been coming up short on solutions so if you have a third option I’d be glad to hear it.
Good point but I accounted for that. I’m going to leave a heater like is in plan B running in our kitchen space on low for a large part of the winter. Hopefully it will be enough but I’ll keep an eye on it with a thermometer.
If you only care about pipes freezing there are low wattage pipe heating cords (also called “heat tape”) that would use way less energy than a space heater. Also if you have drafty windows the temporary “window insulation kits” that basically shrink wrap the window work surprisingly well.
