Ever since I hooked up my heater I now can't seem to get an air pocket out of the system, either that or ironically my temp gauge is malfunctioning. anyway, I like the fact that this is a USA brand and they have some confidence in their product.

Nice panels
Ya since my exhaust is in the way of any stock heater, I was looking aftermarket anyways. I hooked it up when I got it. I'd say it works similar to the high low of a 110V house heater for heat. Fan was quiet and moved a good amount of air. I would recommend so far.

Thanks. Far left is my glow plug relay timer, usually on the motor. I'm thinking I will put some smoked lexan over the lower portion.

Thanks I figure for the small amount of time it will be used, it's a much better option. Also I have a rebuilt 110A altinator.
