touch and go with the heater mate, when they get to the rated power they start hunting which on the cheap ones will mean the voltage will be a bit spikey, I wouldn't want to put my laptop on that. Make sure you get a surge protector for defo.

I got a 1000W over the winter for £80 off ebay, 4 stroke. The only thing 'wrong' with it is it's louder than I would like. Tested it on an 800W toaster and you could tell it was bogging a little but did run it.

Also Danny, running a 500W heater will use loads of petrol, you'd be better getting a gas heater to be honest!
