WOW!!  Is that thing really worth that much new?! I was digging around in
the van this morning and found an exploded view of the heater and an
operations manual.  Its a good thing because to properly set the timer looks
kind of tricky!

I'll let you all know how the thing works....the true test is coming very
soon with our -30C Canadian nights!

Thanks for all the input,

Gord
