I have been heating my water with this thing. I put it in a bucket, I plug it in, the water in the bucket becomes warm, and I take a bath with the warm water. It's a good system.
It's always been inclined to make ominous sizzlings that I've largely been ignoring, and I successfully ignored the sizzlings right up until one of the prongs melted the plastic around itself and got stuck inside the socket.

The hot plastic glued the prong into the power strip; I can't get it out. |

Note the charring on the remaining prong. |
Back to heating bath water on the stove, I guess.
