    Control Circuit (9VDC) For 12VDC Circuit

    I live in Canada, so yes it gets -40 degrees during the wintertime. Necessity being the mother of invention, I decided I had enough of people stealing my vehicle's block heater extension cord and had the great idea of making an automatic system for heating an engine's coolant during extreme...
