Tractor heater?

[chim]

.............I currently run the new style with configurable vents (24V / 45 Amp) and it seems comparable to a 1500W space heater.............

With 24 volts and 45 amps it calculates to 1,080 watts. I can see that feeling comparable to a 1,500 watt space heater in the cab. the other calcs don't make sense. I went to their website and it looks to me like they have some bafflegab going on.

Snow is something like those fire ants, roaches, termites and serpents you southerns have.

locknut, did I read that correctly, you are running a 24 volt system on your tractor.

Yes. 70A Delco 1-wire alt driven at mid pto.Two L&G batteries mounted underneath for the voltage storage. I use it for the heater and two 24V actuators for the v-plow up front.

Coleman-Aire thru ebay.Wouldn't recommend one though.DOA when I got it.Sent it back.Worked ok for a couple years,then last year it quit.Supposidly made for aircraft.Maybe tractor use is too much vibration.Been thinking about removing it from the blockoff screen and install a volt gauge.

What is this "snow" stuff you refer too?
Will it effect how I mow my lawn right before Christmas?

I've spoken to the reindeer, they have agreed to leave a little something extra at your place this year.... Let's call it fertilizer

[be careful hosing off the roof.... don't stand directly under where you are spraying]
