850 watt tank style coolant heater - installed in the Blackfly

I usually (selfishly) don't like to publicize auctions I'm interested in, but this one has 10 units available, so if anyone else is looking:

This is the tank style heater that goes inline between the water pump and heater core. It uses convective circulation.

NOS Kat's external type engine heater #K9. Simply cut heater hose and install it. Too simple! Clamps included. 120 Volts/ 850 Watts
850 watts is a lot (my current external bolt-on unit is 300w). I'm going to try to win one of these.
