They're not meant to be plugged in a wall outlet, just run at the battery like a conventional glowplug.

I briefly touched up on it in my original post, but I intend to coil tubing around the downpipe to flow coolant through. The main purpose of this was to aid in warm-up and to help maintain temperature. My first TDI had the EGR cooler deleted and I couldn't get up to temperature before making it to work.
Nothing might prevent you to use both devices.
