I was thinking it would be possible to make a "reverse power supply" fairly easily. Convert the voltage from the battery to 110v for the space heater. The space heater may even have a power supply to step down the voltage a little?

Or, instead of a resistor, you could hook itup to a bigger motor driving a fan or something....
