Can someone talk me out of using this to heat my apartment in San Francisco?

Check out electricity prices in SF. Especially the top tier. You probably would be better off burning small-denomination bills for heating. Unless of course you tricked your landlord into covering electricity costs, in which case mine away until police comes to evict you :)

Your electricity costs are probably significantly higher and you might lose money overall
