Ah yes, so there seems to be problems with the new ones then. Thats too bad, because mine and Kurt Hall's can get too damn hot if you are not careful.Originally Posted by jplracing
Another thing I thought of - My PDs used to not get as hot as they should when I ran them on low wattage generators. It wasn't a big problem but did confuse me until I figured out the culprit. I later found that my Tire Bakers/Woodcraft ones would actually "click" when the current was too much for whatever cord and genset I was on and would barely even turn on. I now make it a point to put my tire warmers on a heavy gauge short extension cord now, and I am sure it doesn't hurt that I power them with a 10K watt diesel generator...
