[QUOTE="Wewild, post: 333082, member: 671"] We got the freeze plug type heaters on 2 of our tractors. All of them are on 12v system with 2 in series 6v batteries. I never use them anymore. We don't get too cold, but if we do I hook up a F250 desiel when I know from the first pull that they just aren't gona make it. Sometimes I use one jumper cable. Sometime I use a second on the other battery. Sometimes I use ether. I don't have to do any of these much at all. I feed a lunch or in the evening. I don't have glow plugs. I think hooking up the truck is less costly option in the long run for here anyway. The Deere's battery's are easily accessed and it only take a sec. [/QUOTE]
