Great solution for a little heat
I love that this came with lengthy 12 gauge wire. That gauge is expensive. I added a 30 amp inline fuse at the car battery. This blows pretty weak, but it takes the edge off in an old corolla that has a bad heater core. Even with 12 gauge wires, the wires get warm. You will want to connect directly to the battery.

Do not buy this product it’s is complete trash.
You will get better results running an inverter and a small house heater in your car versus using this useless heater.Mine came in with the wire cut off as if someone cut it off and returned it.This heater outputs almost no heat at all. If you put your hand right infront of it you will feel a very small amount of heat and that’s it.I’m currently running a 750w inverter and a cheap 400w small space heater and it works wonders.I’m a master automotive technician the blower motor on my 2016 Nissan versa note sv went out I have the part I can replace it I just been to lazy to do it so I was looking for a more easy heat source lmao.On my car replacing to blower motor is a pain that I don’t want to deal with right now. Look it up and see for your self and you will see what I have not wanted to replace it lmao.

VERY weak airflow, barely heats a space at all
Bought this to warm a garden tractor cab, essentially to keep the windshield defrosted.The airflow is so weak that even the what comes out is warm, it makes no effect in the cab.I read another review where the guy mounted a large computer fan on the back to push air through better.I have made this mod, and am waiting to see if it noticeably improves the performance.

Not the Best
The Fan speed doesn't make a difference when going from low to high. I Installed it on my can am defender. If you want to make yourself warm then forget it. I decided to install a small propane heater. It works better and will warm you up. I should have listened to the reviews. I did forget to shut it off and it drained my battery.

Heat is perfect Can Am installation
Not a powerful heater for an open Can-AM, but it's perfect for warming hands during snow plowing. It is safer than other propane heaters, in my opinion, and quite easy to install.

No Heat
Must provide your own fuse. Heat worked for 30 seconds before quitting. Returning. Would not recommend. Bad product.

Needs to have an in-line fuse!
I bought this for my little '99 Dodge Dakota with the extended cab because my factory heater does not blow out a lot of heat. I've already attempted to flush out the heater core, but that had limited results. It's starting to look like I might have to replace the heater core, which is buried deep inside the dash. This is not a job I really feel like doing right now. But, winter in Oregon is approaching, and I know I'm going to want some form of supplemental heat in my truck.As it stands this little heater seems like a pretty good solution to either A) hold one over until the factory heater can be properly repaired or B) serve as a replacement for the factory heater in an older vehicle when a proper repair could be more expensive than it is worth.Do not expect this little heater to put out near as much heat as a properly functioning factory heater. And do not expect it to do much for you in a larger vehicle. From what I've researched, this little unit is best for smaller spaces.Good:-The heater does get nice and hot, and seems to do alright with heating up my extended cab '99 Dodge Dakota. Granted, it's not quite cold outside yet, so I'll have to wait to see how well it does during an Oregon winter.- Mounting was relatively painless as it came with necessary hardware.- It seems to match up pretty well with the rest of my interior.Bad:-The power wire does NOT include an in-line fuse, or even a fuse holder. I would not recommend, for the sake of safety, ever running a wire from your battery without a fuse. Failure to use a properly rated fuse could result in serious harm to yourself and/or your vehicle should there ever be a short in the wire. This means that I had to cut up the power wire in order to add a fuse holder to it.-There is a red light that is continuously on, even when the vehicle is turned off, because it uses a direct connection to the battery. This means there is a continuous power draw, even if the heater and/or fan is off. An easy way to avoid this, and to protect against accidentally leaving the heater running unattended, is to purchase an automotive relay and add it in-line with the power wire. Then wire the relay trigger to a switched power source, that way the heater will only ever draw power when the ignition system (or accessories) is turned on.-The power wire does get a little bit warm to the touch. Another reason to add, at the very least, a fuse to the power wire.It does seem like a perfectly functional little heater. But, in order to install it in a safe manner, I can't recommend this for anyone who doesn't know what they're doing, unless they have a competent mechanic who will install it with a relay and fuse.DO NOT INSTALL WITHOUT AN IN-LINE FUSE! BARE MINIMUM!
