I have 2 100w heaters glued to the sump and a 25w unit glued to the oil cooler.
Plugged it in late yesterday afternoon and this morning the oil temp was 102F and CHT's were 75F. OAT was 31F.
Considering that the oil temp sensor is way up north (top of the accessory case) this is most satisfactory.
The cylinder bands are not needed unless it gets much, much colder and if that happens I won't be flying anyhow.
