bottle heater wiring.. this right?

is running a switch just fine?

2 wires off bottle heater (NOS)

one wire has a secondary tapped into it... heres my jimmy rig diagram:


toggle has 3 connections

1) 12v (far left connection- says power)
2) one wire from BH (middle connection)
3) other wire (far right connection- says ground) with the secondary connection wire actually being the one connected to the ground

sound right, i really dont want to use a relay, because they dont seem ness especially since i only put it in to race and heat it up before then turn it off.

if you have a diagram with the bottle heater and NO relay let me know how it is set up

i plugged into the rear window defogger. ground one wire where the ground bolt is at the trunk release. the other wire i connected to the power side of the rear window defogger in the back where it connects to the window. that way i have a timed power switch to it. the only bad thing is you have to have the key on to use it.

there won't be a trace. i used a male connector to plug into the hot lead on the defogger. and the ground is just undo the bolt and remove. i'll take pics to show you.

good thing is that it's timed. if you forget, it turns itself off. i once forgot to turn mine off in my 86 TA. luckily the pop off valve worked. i just filled the bottle and somehow bumped the on switch. the entire car filled with a white cloud. i wass inside the house when it happened. it was real loud.
