Huh. I was unaware they were that cheap. Looks like I got something to ask for for Christmas.

This is what you need to keep a big engine and bunk hot. You would still need an enclosure, 7 day timer and aux heater core with low amp draw fan in the bunk.
My father in law was a dealer for many years and we have several units and spare parts inventory.

I just picked up a Webasto engine and bunk heater combo with everything needed to install including smart timers for $2000 Canadian.

I can find brand new engine heaters online for cheaper than 800 usd easily.
