Glow heat
I would like to add heat to the glow plug to increase engine reliability from the occasional shut down. A 1600 mah NiCad cell will weigh about 1.5 oz. If The entire current capacity could be used the glow plug could be heated for approximately 1.5 hours which would be simple and cheap insurance against engine shut down. I somehow doubt if the plug would stay warm long enough to start the engine for anywhere near 1.5 hours.
Does anyone have any experience on how long glow plug heat could be expected to be hot enough to start an engine?
Thanks for any information.
