How much did it increase your temperature reading when hot?
My radiator fan kicks on and off based on the coolant temperature reading. I only have a 5-10°F window between the radiator fan and the thermostat.

Well, the device could be rigged to a button ON/OFF, it would be possible , no ? Also , even better I would think you could put a timer in the circuit, one that could be set to let's say 3 minutes. You start the car, the timer starts as well (like staircase-lights) and then it stays on for that initial minutes you need a leaner burn, then turns itself off to avoid starting the radiator-fan at lower than needed temps.
I don't know, I'm not mechanically inclined so my idea might not work..
