Been thinking it would be nice to have some heat around when plowing and eventually blowing snow on my uncabbed tractor
Noticed these inexpensive 5000-8000 watt vevor heaters for ~$120 that have four port output. Thinking if I can find a place to mount it could direct 3 ports to the operator to keep warm-er than no heat, and one to the intake for even faster cold weather starting.
Should be able to T into the diesel fuel line so no tank needed and also the interface runs on 12 volts and is only supposed to draw about 50 watts so no need for a separate battery.
The unit also has a flexible exhaust to direct it away from the area where the heat is.
Anyway ordered one and we will see, and if it just works for some extra operator heat that is OK to. Or this could be a complete fail... Will update when it arrives and get it installed.
