Product Overview
The Esprit 12 volt heater as used for windscreen repairs on cold days, can be powered by either plugging it into the cigarette lighter socket of a car or plugging it into the socket on a jump start unit.If the lead is not long enough to reach the damaged area, pre-heat the unit by plugging it into a power source, hold down the switch on the base of the unit (found under the hinged flap) for 60 seconds then unplug the unit and take it to the work area. Our heater is set to warm up to just the right temperature so that the screen should be warm, but not hot to the touch. The heater on the screen also warms the resin, making it more viscous and easy to use. The trick for repairing in the cold is to take your time, don’t rush the pressure on pressure off cycle; allow the resin to slowly fill the cracks – it may take a bit longer if the resin is thicker than normal. We’ve recently upgraded our heater and instead of taking a minute to heat up, it now takes 15 seconds – all at the same price as the original heater. These new heaters are now in all kits. Apart from that, all your Esprit kit items work just as well in the cold as in the heat. Winter is a good time for repairs – gritted roads and murky conditions mean that cars are more likely to have chip damage, and it’s important to get these repaired as soon as possible to avoid getting dirt into the break, stopping you from getting an excellent result.
