500 watt heater wouldn't do much for me in four hours in a large diesel. OEM frost-plug heaters in mine are 400 or 600 watts and have to be plugged in all night to do any good.
I've got large circulating tank heaters in all my diesels (1500 and 2000 watts) that I sometimes need in a hurry. Especially for one tractor and my two diesel plow trucks. If snow is forecasted, I plug in the small heaters the night before. But, if not forecasted - and I wake up with a surprise and three feet of snow - I plug in the big tank heaters. They only need an hour or two in most cases unless it's 30 below F. My GM 6.2 diesels really need that heat. My Ford 7.3 and Dodge 5.9 - not really an issue as far as actual cold starting goes. Still want the heat though to prevent cold-starting wear.
