I don't know about all the math, but. I have two small diesels I use in the winter,30 HP. and 40HP. I have a 650 watt heater on each one. I plug them in about 90 min. before I use them in the winter below 25 degrees. Sometimes I put a timer on them when I know ahead when I use them. I don't notice any difference in the winter from their use on my electric bill. My bill goes up about 25.oo a month in the cold months but I attribute that to a 100 gallon livestock tank heater. Both of those tractors will start with the preheat alone. I just figure its easier on them to plug them in first. I only have to preheat them if its below zero but I may just keep them plugged in a little longer. Maybe that may help your cause in your family fight.
