My research on the climate control timer suggests that in many situations, it may end up using power from the battery. I don't want that.
I have a model S, and sometimes I just want to switch on the preheater 10 minutes before I'm going to leave.
What if I just bought a safe heater, something like this
or this:
and plug it in? I would set it so it would be impossible to drive away with it still plugged in.
It's simple. Is it safe?
