Arrowmax Tire Warmer vs skyrc and others
Looking for 1/8th scale tire warmers.
I'm intrigued by the arrowmax tire warmers with a battery warming bag combo, but they are about $170 to my door.
Worth it to pay nearly double over skyrc or other similar brands?

I like the muchmore tire warmers. You can put a 3s battery pack inside that never has to be removed because of balance plugs in the case. The tire cups are aluminum and durable. The casing doubles as a car stand.

Even the cheap GT power tire warmers will do the job

I've reviewed some warmers here as well as showed how I made custom warmers for 1/8 Truggy wheels:

I actually saw that. I want something a little more refined than just the single temp box. That being said, did you see any difference going up the chain. I do like the idea of it being possible to power it by battery and I ahppen to have a 3s that I'll never use for anything else.
When you say "going up the chain" I take it that you mean spending more money for a higher quality product and what do you get for the money?
The cheap GT Power warmers won't fit 1/8 cars but they get the job done just as well as any other warmer on the market... only difference is a mechanical dial that reads in Celsius where the digital warmers can toggle over to Fahrenheit and they also offer timer features and ability to set different temps at every corner if you wanted. Some may feel all these extra features are necessary but honestly the cheap warmers will still get the job done where you can velcro 2 sets of GT Power warmers together to work on a 1/8 if you want to save some cash.

If you know how to make some pads with resistance wire and velcro you can use a simple cheap Aliexpress temperature controller like I did:
Made a 1/18 tire heater.
A 3S battery as power looks awesome, keep in mind the battery function is just for the use of going from the pit table to the track. No way you can use it all day. A one time full warming up will drain the battery empty....
