The SKYRC engine heater uses technology similar to that used by Formula 1, Indy Car and NASCAR Teams! It will properly pre-heat your engine to 60-70°C in 10 minutes based on ambient temperature.

Fuel consumption is much less, as you do not have to spend time warming up and adjusting your engine. A pre-heatet glow-plug will increase the life of your plug. It is also perfect for break-in, as it reduces the "pinch" on your new engine. You will experience that engine pre-heating is a must. Most importantly, it will quickly pay for itself by increasing engine life and performance!

Does this come with a power supply And will it fit the 3.0 HPI bullet nitro engine
Asked by Tim on 30th January 2017

No, it plugs into a 12v DC power source.

Yes, it's universal so will fit pretty much any nitro engine.

Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models

Ok, a 12v DC power source, like a car cigarette lighter, does it come with adaptors or do you supply something? Cheers
Asked by Tim on 30th January 2017

These have an XT60 connector, so for example a 3S LiPo battery that has an XT60 connector would be ideal.

Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models

Does this come with crocodile clips? for 12 v battery? Thanx
Asked by Tom on 8th May 2017

This comes with an XT60 connector as pictured.

Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models

Is it used by battery (lipo) or with a cars battery or something else?
Asked by Sami on 14th June 2018

Yes it's powered by a 12v source - most people tend to use a 3S LiPo.

Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models

hi,could you point to what battery do use with this for example
Asked by Lily Furly on 4th May 2019

Any 3S LiPo will do - just be aware these do not have low voltage detection so you will need to ensure you don't drain the voltage too low.

A cheap and cheerful lipo would be say OL-2966
