I have loads of the damn things and the are an expensive waste of money as far as I am concerned. No proper heat comes out of them at all. I ended up buying a couple of oil filled electric heaters which worked far better, and using my air conditioning to provide warm air. My electricity bill has been reduced by 200 euros this year by doing that.

I would look into other methods before you go down the wafer heater route. WHen I redecorate I will probably remove them all. We got the ones that were larger than required for the rooms and they were still inadequate in providing any warmth.

I tend to agree with fmm on the use of wafers for room heating, but for wardrobes they do the job intended and the very tiny ones do not cost a lot to run.

Last winter was the first one I'd experienced since buying the villa. I left the wardrobe ones on to see if the bedding would survive without getting too damp and was pleased with the result. There wasn't any other heating on. I'll do it again this winter.
