- Efficient Heating:Features built-in precision heating wires that quickly generate uniform heat, directly acting on the bottom of the battery to effectively enhance battery activity in low-temperature environments, ensuring stable cold start current and preventing vehicle start-up difficulties caused by severe cold weather.
- Constant Temperature:Built-in thermostat automatically cuts off power when the overall temperature reaches approximately 122°F, preventing overheating and potential battery damage. Temperature may rise briefly during the heating process due to rapid heat transfer, and requires 15-20 minutes of continuous heating for the most accurate temperature. Due to the difference in the distribution of the heating wire, there may be a slight temperature difference between different locations. The thermostat is constructed with secondary insulation, resulting in a delay in heat transfer.
- Safety Specifications:The silicone heating pad measures 8.2 inches × 5.5 inches. Its ultra-thin design allows it to seamlessly integrate into the bottom of most battery trays or battery boxes without occupying additional space. No modifications to the installation structure are required—simply place it and use it.
