Hey, has anyone ever tried to use these small heaters to keep the wind shield defrosted and to provide a little warmth on those chilly mornings? If these would work, no more heat exchangers and ducting. Wonder what we could lose in weight and what could be run through the tubes instead of hot air?
Just wondering, Tom |

Depends on how much heat you are looking for.
I used this in my car last fall at temps below freezing and was surprised on how well it worked. I dont drive my car during the winter here in Minnesota but the electric one worked fine at temps below freezing. It throws enough heat to keep the cabin warm and kept the windshield clear.
