Nice, now you need to design a simple switch that can be triggered remotely
via cell phone to turn it on when you leave your house.
What are you using for cowl plugs?

Bret,
I took the other end and stuffed it in the cowling between the exhaust
pipes.
Saturday afternoon when I first turned it on, my EMS showed the oil temp was
30 degrees F. 35 minutes later, it was up to 44.
That was done with the cowl plugs in place and an old flannel bed sheet over
the cowling.

That looks simple enough. How are you going to attach it to the engine?

This should have probably gone out to the SE list with temps dropping down
like they have.
I was hoping to get out and try this but I was kind enough to pass along the
cold I had last week to Nora so I'm watching The Boy today.

OK, I finally got motivated tonight and made an inexpensive pre-heater. Now
to test it out.

They have switches like you describe but you will need to open your wallet!
The plugs I'm using came from Van's, here's the link:
