Install a micro switch so you only use onboard battery for glow below, say 1/2 throttle.
I'm running gasoline (the amount of methanol gives just a power boost, but it is not enought to keep a glow hot) only because my carb doesn't handle to much flow. I tried to take ofu power at WOT, but the rpm drops by 500rpm. It is not a hassle for me. One glow circuit switch and no problems. If I flip the switch in the flight I might get an interference.
