My question is really if someone out there has used the AHT-Heating
systems which seem promising and promise great energy savings (assuming
a well insulated house). The edge of this technology is that it uses an
amorpous alloy ribbon that increases the actual heat transfer area over
more widely used wires and has a much lower profile of 20-30 microns.

And what is the supposed result of using such a magical heat-transfer
medium?

You might get marginally faster warmup, though I doubt it'd be
measurable.

Any electric heating system will be 100% efficient at the point of use.
They can't better that.

With the small caveat of heat-pump systems.
