Would you mind doing some testing with the block heater? I haven't installed mine yet due to the fact that I don't think it'll help a ton. The coolant thermos in the Prius has been (until the recent very cold weather) heating the engine up to ~100F in the morning. On my Matrix, the block heater only got it up to around the same temperature. Could you compare with and without using the block heater?
