Hi Clint,

Yep, when she's cookin' you can hear 'em boil. When the temp gets high enough, the thermostatic switch will snap and the heater will shut itself off.

As the the temp falls, the switch will then turn the unit on again.

They cycle; this is why it is cheaper in the long run to just leave the things plugged in if you use the tractor a lot.

Another item: The most common reason why these things fail is their cord. For some reason that cord doesn't last as long as the heaters do.

Stay warm,

Allan
