Description
The Dynamite 12V DC Nitro Engine Heater will properly pre-heat your .19-.32 size engine to 140-158˚F (60-70˚C) in approximately 10 minutes based on ambient temperatures. It helps to relieve the stress on the crank, connecting rod, piston and sleeve during warm-up. It will also help provide a smooth engine start, with reduced stress on your starter box. Fuel consumption will be reduced, as you do not have to spend time and fuel warming up and adjusting your engine. Additionally, a pre-heater will increase the life of your plug. It is also perfect for break-in, as it reduces the “pinch” on your new engine. This nitro engine heater will pay for itself many times over with increased engine life and performance!

Devin Cunningham Verified Owner Wednesday, Nov 4 2020 (about 4 years ago) Dynamite Nitro Engine Heater 12V DC Perfect…. Period
Leave it on for 10 mins. 20.. Start your new motor. No excessive wear.
It may smoke a bit while the rubber is new but it is VERY minimal and for 1 minute. Don’t be alarmed. 5 customers found this review helpful. Todd Balestrini Verified Owner Tuesday, Apr 5 2022 (about 3 years ago) Dynamite Nitro Engine Heater 12V DC If you do not use an engine heater you need to buy one ASAP! I would list a heater as an essential piece of gear, especially if you are using a pull start engine. Not only will it reduce excessive wear from cold starts but it will also make the engine much easier to start. It used to take me sometimes 10-15 pulls while the engine was cold to get it to start and now it only takes 1-2, prolonging the life the of the pull starter. It’s annoying that someone took stars off because they “had to use a bunch of adapters” to get it to work with their battery. You can clearly see in the photo which connector it takes, They don’t make a “one size fits all” connector and with the alligator clips you can make it work with virtually any battery connector, I typically use the clips on my EC5 connectors or just hook to my car battery if it’s close. 2 customers found this review helpful.

Madylin Cooprider Verified Owner Friday, Oct 15 2021 (about 3 years ago) Dynamite Nitro Engine Heater 12V DC Works great! Except for the fact that I have to use 2 different plug adapters so I can use it with my battery. 0 of 7 customers found this review helpful. View all reviews
