    The message I got the way I read it was just to idle it if its below zero. Never said not to use auto start.

    My message was worded way differently.

    I thought the main reason for the auto start was to keep the batteries charged when the bunk heater runs them down. Maybe we should all just let the batteries die. Besides, my bunk heater shuts off and stays off if I don't use auto start.

    Yeah same with my bunk heater, once the batterys drain down a bit bunk heater turns off. I am tempted to let the batterys die and freeze up solid if they are going to be like that now.

    This must have come from a FM with no idea what the auto start is for and that the bunk heaters don't run for a full 10 hours AND sometimes we take more than 10 hours off. If I get this message I will just ignore it until they tell me more than a few times and then we will have words and/or lots of maintenance issues to keep my heater running all night.

    -4 right now. Warms up tomorrow, then a bigger freeze and some snow over the weekend. Come Monday high in twin cities around -8.
