Electric cast iron radiators

I've seen them online, but in the UK, not the US. Does anyone know of a US source for these rads. I need supplemental heat in a historic house. A cast iron rad would fit in but they don't have hydronics. An electric cast iron rad would fit the bill.

There was a discussion on this site a few months ago with a link to a company that used cast iron radiators and inserted an electric element into the pipe supply of the radiator that heated whatever fluid they put in the radiator. I think they made two sizes but I don't rememer the company or if they are still in business. You might try a search on this site and see if you can find it.

I think the one that was talked about is this one:

Not a US company, but it is in Canada so I would think you could get them in this country?
