I once measured the heater blower power draw in my truck: https://ecomodder.com/forum/showthre...raw-18678.html.

In winter, I mostly leave the heater blower on the lowest speed, and the second lowest speed when the temperature is below zero Fahrenheit. A more efficient blower with LED lighting is tempting because it would have got me THAT close to a 40 MPG summer average....
