It’s not. If you just grab the most powerful lamp on the shelf, you’re probably just wasting electricity—or worse, making your bathroom feel like a sauna. The trick is matching the heat to the actual size of the room.</p> <h2 id="getting-the-size-right">Getting the size right</h2> <p>Think about your space. If you&rsquo;ve got a tiny powder room—something under 4m²—you really only need about 400W to 600W. If you throw a 1200W lamp in a room that small, it’ll get hot way too fast. Your thermostat will be constantly clicking on and off to keep up. That &ldquo;short-cycling&rdquo; is a killer; it wears out the relay and kills the life of your lamp. Now, if you&rsquo;re dealing with a big master bath (around 8m² to 12m²), you need more muscle. Go for 800W to 1200W. In a bigger room, a weak lamp just can&rsquo;t fight the distance between the ceiling and the floor. The heat basically disappears into the air before it ever reaches you.</p>
