Block heater timers should save us time, money and freezing our fingers off each time we go outside to turn the block heater on manually. Unlike other block heater timers, the VoltSafe Winter app is not a bulky object that attaches to a wall outlet that looks like it’s growing electrical cord tentacles. Created to work with the VoltSafe Winter Magnetic Block Heater Plug, the VoltSafe Winter app has now joined the world of IOT ( Internet of Things). With the ability to control your VoltSafe Winter Magnetic Plug from the comfort of your couch, the app’s features will have you feeling like the world’s top secret agent.
