HAS ANYBODY MADE A TANK HEATER TO KEEP THE FLUID THIN? I READ SOMEPLACE TO USE A 12VOLT BLANKET. SOUNDS SKETCHY IF U LAY A BLANKET OVER YOUR BATTERIES TO KEEP THEM WARM? ANY IDEAS? THANKS.

STILL NEED HELP WITH CHARGING MY BATTERIES.

Why Would You Lay Something Over The Batts To Keep Them Warm? Youde Want To Keep The Oil Tank Warm.

Consider Using A Bottle Warmer Like The Folks Who Use Nitrous...

I HAVE A DAILY DRIVER. I STILL HAVE TO MOVE THIS FROM TIME TO TIME. I ALSO WANT TO PLAY WHEN IT HAS TO BE MOVED. THOSE BOTTLE HEATERS ARE EXPENSIVE. THANKS

They Are Pricey But Worth It I Guess... Anyways, I Also Heard You Can Switch Over To Hydraulic Fluid To Ease The Problem Of The Bubble Gum Oil In The Cold...

Don't Know Too Much About It. I'm Sure Someone Here Will Elaborate...

In the winter I swap out the ND30 fluid for some R+O hydraulic fluid from auto zone. It is much thinner and your ride will raise up quicker.

You can buy engine block heaters at any auto parts store.... the plug into a 110v outlet and have a magnet so it will stick to your tanks. They are cheap, like $10 or $12 i think.

any ideas on if the rest of the fluid being cold in the system will affect the movement of the system..
id think not since the fluid in the pump is warm the motor will spin good... right?
