Subject:      Espar heater mods
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

   Has anyone here modified their auxilary (espar) to be able to make it run
when the engine isn't running? It shouldn't be hard, since -- at least on the
diesel fired one on my '82 diesel westy -- it normally keeps running for about
10 minutes after you shut off the engine anyway.
  I'm thinking that timer can simply be wired around with a switch, or maybe
even a thermostat? A thermostat run espar would be a great mod for winter
camping. And there are many models listed on the espar site which are set up
for continual running.
