Thanks, I just thought there was an overheating danger in leaving the smaller space heaters on over night

There could be with a junky heater near flamables. I use a decent metal frame "milk house heater" and keep it away from flamables. They are intended to heat living space. Most fires with electric heaters are caused by poor extension cords and proximity to flamables. Be safe and use a safe heater and it will be fine. Good quality, no extension cord, its own separate electric circuit.
