Battery Blankets & Pan Warmer

[BIGNASTY]

Looking at Kats Battery Wraps and oil Pan Warmer
Do these 3 items draw enough amperage to overload ONE Extension Cord? I couldn't find amp draw on the website.

 

[seafish]

Looks like the larger battery wrap they make draws only 80 watts (only .75 amps)

 

[seafish]

Their LARGEST Magnetic oil pan warmer draws 500 watts, about 4 amps.

That being said, maybe give them a call with your specific application to double check the numbers--

We have the OEM style block heater installed on my Sons truck and I must say CONGRATULATIONS to Geno's for a nice product that FITS LIKE IT SHOULD. The 3 products are 2 battery blankets and the pan heat-pad = 3

The OEM block heater will be on its own cord

 

[BIGNASTY]

was thinking all products on ONE plug but I REALLY hate splicing things together for a probable problem point

 

[DavidC]

What ever you do use the proper size extension cord. Most grocery cords are 16 gauge.

 

[DonFitzwater]

One plug will be fine. This is how I rig mine up. Get a Marinco with an attached rubber plug if you live in a place where they salt the roads or use chemicals.

Don, I take it the red light next to your plug is to indicate if you have power at the plug? Or... ????

I wouldnt put anything else on the same breaker as the block heater.
I'd allocate 15 amps for that alone. Especially if you have a long run and/or thin extension wire...
