    Customer testimonial: I bought a cab for my tractor about a year ago and needed a heater. I didn't really have enough room or location for a big heater box that uses engine coolant. So I bought a Road Pro. I figured if one didn't keep me warm I could mount a second one.

    My cab has a hard top, Glass windshield, and soft sides and back. Inside I installed a piece of flat steel across the cab and mounted the heater on the right side facing the windshield. I hard wired it to the battery since it draws 22-28 amps (according to the specs) and just have to remember to turn it off when I'm done plowing. The fan won't blow your hat off and may be on the weak side but it keeps me warm and my windshield defrosted.

    I will say that one heater works great. I can now plow snow in the cab without wearing gloves, nor do I have to wear extra heavy clothing. It does work well. Here's a few pics of my cab and heater.

    P.S. the toggle switch on the left side disconnects it from the battery. I found that without it there was always a small draw on the battery from the power light even with the switch on the heater off.

MIT develops self-transforming materials that behave 'like robots without robots'

Wed, 15 Oct 2014

A cross-disciplinary research lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed a suite of programmable materials, including carbon fiber, printed wood grain, textile composites, rubbers and plastics, that self-transform when exposed to an external stimulus. Director of the Self-Assembly Lab, Skylar Tibbits, presented a TED talk on 4D printing in 2013, where he demonstrated how a flat sheet of material could effectively build itself when exposed to water, like a robot without a robot. Following positive feedback from industries including aviation, automotive and manufacturing, his lab has been working on developing materials that change according to different activation sources, including heat, light, and air pressure, in addition to water – all of which have automotive relevance.

Vygor Opera .2 – just as ugly as the first Vygor & €140k

Wed, 09 Nov 2011

Vygor Opera .2 - a second take on the new crossover from Italy Last month we reported on the Vygor Opera, a new ‘car’ from Italy which we thought looked like a cross between a 5-Series GT, Subaru and an X6, but after a dose of ugly pills. So when we got an email in to say there’s a second version of the Opera – catchily named the Vygor Opera.2 – we thought Vygor must have bucked up their ideas from the first Opera and employed someone with a proper Italian flair for design. No such luck.

Audi A3 e-tron (2015) to launch Audi’s plug-in hybrid attack

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Audi’s first plug-in hybrid will hit the UK by 2015, with the electric-assisted drivetrain installed in the A3. E-tron versions of the next-generation A4 and Q7 will follow, as Audi gets serious about plug-ins, and takes the fight to BMW’s forthcoming range of ‘born electric’ i cars. Audi A3 e-tron: the full lowdown Audi UK’s number-crunchers have been trying to calculate the market’s size, to estimate potential demand and help shape the A3 e-tron’s spec.
