My gig
I posted this in the electronics area but maybe someone here has tried something.
when it is below -15 the Mygig will not start up. short of a garage or milk-house heater any ideas? I was throwing the idea of a small pad heater but the smallest I have found is 60 watts. that might cook that radio.
Ideas?

I was referring to those orange pad heaters. They get down right hot and I don't think you would want to get the radio that hot.
I like the timer idea.
I had a relay idea that included aftermarket seat heaters and a 12vdc regulated power supply. have the power supply provide 12vdc to the normally closed side of the relay and battery to the normally open. have the coil connected to the ignition. when the jeep is off and plugged in to the 110v my seats will warm. turn the key on and the could continue to warm with the battery. throw in your timer idea and I got something. I just don't think that the seat heat will actually warm the cab enough for the radio.
