Can you run this reliably Is it possible to have the bottle heater come on whenever the car is started. No on a switch but like whenever you turn the key of the car it automaticly comes on. It would be wired independently from the rest of the N20 system and I wanted to know is it possible to do this without the heater going out. Its an automatic bottle warmer by the way.
Re: Can you run this reliably I powered my heater from the fuse box on the side of our dash I pluged it into the IGN and am running the wire to the switch in my ashtray and from the switch an inline fuse in the wire to the bottle now if I didnt have the switch there the heater would turn on everytime I turned the hey foward it would be on everytime your car would be on but you wouldnt have to worry ever have to worry about leaving he heater on but I'm sure this doesn't answer the part about the life of your heater itself

Re: Can you run this reliably yea, it would be nice to not have a switch to morry about and use an automatic bottle heater and just take it out during the summer(texas). That way its no need for a preasure gauge and I also had an idea about hooking up a small indicator lamp like the ones for car alarms and have that light to flash while the heater is on to show that its not enough preasure and it will go off when the heater goes off.
