 Engine Block Heater January 2, 2009

Used it once on a very cold morning for three hours; car started quickly without hesitation. Very easy to use.

this is ok but you should probably leave it plugged in over night if you are to use your tractor the next day if it is cold around 30, a few hours isn't enough especially for a diesel, pretty hard to start in the cold, it is ok to leave it plugged in all night.
Glad to have it December 22, 2008

This guy totally makes my car run more smoothly on startup. I have it set with a lamp-timer (you need a grounded one) to come on a couple of hours before I head off to work. The car runs and starts noticeably easier on cold days. I use it in Minneapolis, MN, my car is garaged in a separate building from my house. If it had a longer handle I could easily place and remove it as required, as it is I have it zip-tied into place.

It always worked fine on my John Deere 4230 until I attempted to remove it to use the tractor, yesterday. The heater housing came off in my hand. The housing plastic had melted and allowed the two mounting screws to slide out. The magnetic heating element was still on the oil pan and the plastic housing was in my hand. This is dangerous! The mounting screws need to be lengthened so the screw head protrudes outside the plastic housing. Maybe the heat will not affect the screw fastener mounting if it is redesigned in this manner, or similar? In any case, the design needs to be changed due to the danger.
 Block Heater nice Idea but does not heat target February 8, 2008

Does not work as advertised. Get a "Frost/Freeze Plug insert type. That works. Barely heats oil pan. When 30*F temp, cannot tell the thing is on. It gets hot but very poor conduction to target.
