I'm curious to learn how many industries/products use carbon fiber to carry electricity.

One example I found: big chicken coop heat lamps have a CF filament, see https://youtu.be/MG8o3tQYkMo

I have heard some heated floors use a CF mat?

Please share other examples if you can, thank you.

Wonder what the advantage is over just regular quartz space heater in this case?

- Heated wires for floors (see big clive)
- Heated wires in steering wheels or car seats
- Heated wires in gloves/vests (good as its light weight)
- Heating panels for saunas

If you find some interesting use for the silicone heated wire there is tons of it available on aliexpress.
Looks interesting: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001303390319.html but I wouldn't want to play with mains voltage.

I reckon I've seen some of those little ozone / ion generator things use carbon fiber in some of BigClives videos too
