Default Bottle heater options

Im in the market for something to warm my bottle, and interested to see what everyone uses. Not looking to hardwire anything into the car so was curious if there is a option for a heater that just plugs into a 110 outlet of cigarette lighter etc.

Usually heaters draw a lot of amperage. Going to have to use a relay from a fused power source direct from battery. I don't think a cigarette lighter will sustain the amp without popping a fuse or melting the wiring to the cigarette lighter.

I think I found what I need. I can just plug this into a 110v outlet.

How long are you planning on keeping the kit on the car? You have already wired a nitrous kit up, might as well wire a bottle heater too.

I use the Nitrous Outlet bottle heater too.

If you have a trailer, I would suggest using a hot water bath. I prefer to use as water bath when I can.

This would solve your issue and keep you from having to put a heater in the car.

There is a company out of Port Orange FL, (Daytona area) that makes a lot of different bottle warmers. ARC, Applied Race Components. They make both 12Vdc and 120Vac as well as dual AC/DC warmers.

I can't find their web site, they do have a face book page, but I have seen their stuff on Ebay.

Default 12/ 120 V Nitrous bottle heater

They say that this is one of the best bottle heaters out there. its very reliable.
Runs on 12 Volt or 120 Volts. 120V can be used in the pitts with a generator.
