if it was an NX kit, so many things would have had to go wrong for that to happen.

I'm not worried.

and out of all those things, I'd say at least half are user error, not dumb luck or component failure.

He didn't wire his heater to a switched power source. The idiot didn't follow the instructions and messed his car and garage up. Simple as that.

Yeah if he had just wired it to a switched accessory source the heater would have been turned off when the car was turned off. moron

That is a pretty old story, but still shows how important it is to have everything setup properly.

For my bottle warmer to function the key has to be on, arming switch on as well as the heater switch. It took me a little extra time to wire the setup the way I have, but it has been well worth it.
