Has anyone used the small electric heater that Aircraft Spruce sells? It is a 12 or 24 volt unit that looks like a hairdryer with the handle cut off. Does it would up here in Lake Wobegon temperatures? 2. Where do I place the static wicks that I don't know for sure that I should make or buy from Lancair? I have heard of several ways, i.e., strand some carbon threads to about 3/16 in diameter, shrink wrap for a length of 6 inches, and bond in. I guess I need to know a little bit more about that, and I appreciate whatever advice anyone has out there. PS This is a great news service. Michael Smith
