Send an e-mail to Eric at CRP. Quality defects can happen at anytime on mass produced items. They're top-notch about taking care of customers, so it shouldn't be a problem at all to get you squared away.

Yeah i just checked my 2 other brand new comp heat 12v and i seems to be just how there made i sent him an email i will post pics tomorrow. i did use the 110v version today and i think it's a mandatory piece of nitro equipment. i do like them.

I've been using them since the original release, and know first hand all the benefits you'll see. Your engine will thank you. Welcome to the group that has the most important piece of nitro support equipment.

+1 to that Matt.

Plus the Competition Heat is the original, and the best.
Lot's of knock off's out there, but they don't compare too well in quality to the Comp Heat model.
Then you have the added bonus of Eric's great customer support .

So maybe if i call you out of your thread i'll get a response. Ordered shocks pistons on the 16 th here it is the 29th and nothin. I order from a-main and get my shit 2or 3 days later I'm in West Virginia your in North Carolina and can't seem to get shit from you . Its been paid for since 8/16/14. WTF? I know you just moved you told me that a week ago. You also said they'd be in the mail last Tuesday here it is Saturday and nothin. All i can think is this is bullshit.

Billy Betteker,

The confusion came about after we emailed you on 8/23 to let you know your order would ship the following week, we then received notice from paypal that you wanted a refund, which is fine, I understand you wanted them asap. We responded to paypal that you should get your funds back because of the delay. I then received a pretty explicit email from you on 8/28 so we went ahead and shipped you a set of pistons on 8/29. You received a personal email from me last Friday morning (8/29) as well as Priority shipping confirmation. Your pistons should arrive today. FYI, we did not begin shipping orders until 8/28.

To all our customers, CRP Inc. has moved from our Nashville, TN. location to the Charlotte, NC area.

Does this mean things are going well for Josh with you moving closer to the heart of nascar?

I never got the e-mail you sent . But i did get the pistons today. Thank you Eric.

Does any one have idea how many amps the 12v engine heater generates using a 3s battery?

Something around 45-50Wt, so you need to do some math from here

7 Ah at the start and then it drops down to 5 or so

I seem to be able to power it for about 45'ish minutes on a 5.8A 3S lipo before the low batt alarm goes off.

However when the voltage is slightly higher, ie battery is full, it is very quick to heat up. Then when the battery is half down, it takes slightly longer to heat up.

fully charged 3s battery 12.6v. heater 50w.
Watts divided by Volts = Amps
50/12.6 = 3.96amps.
although the voltage will drop off and the current will go up.

Nope. The heater is a lineair device so when the voltage get lower the current will also go lower.
