Banks 750 Watt Billet Heater Kit - Banks Power - 42809

Add the Banks 750-Watt Billet Heater Kit to your Single-Heat Monster-Ram to aid cold-weather starts. Increases total heat output to 1500 watts.
Built To Survive
This simple bolt-on kit requires no maintenance. Unlike the factory Cummins restrictive, failure-prone grid heater, Banks coil heaters are designed to fail safely, avoiding catastrophic engine damage.
 
How It Works
Doubles your Banks Monster-Ram's heat output, from 750 watts to 1500 watts.
Bolt On
Double The Heat
Simply bolt on the 750-Watt Billet Heater Kit to either a Classic Single-Heat Monster-Ram and connect with the supplied cable.
Test Criteria
 
We followed RAM's cold start recommendations. Per the owner’s manual, RAM recommends the use of the block heater when the temperature drops below 0°F/-17°C and mandates the block heater at temperatures below -20°F/-29°C.
Using a controlled climate chamber, our first test utilized block heat and two Banks coil heaters (1500 watts total). The Monster-Ram enabled our test truck to cold start down to -30°F/-34°C. Against RAM’s recommendations, we also attempted to cold start with the same two coil heaters and no block heat. We were able to cold start down to -20°F/-29°C. 
All tests were performed with two intake air pre-heat cycles per the owner’s manual. Intake air temperature is just one factor contributing to a successful cold start. Individual results may vary. Testing is ongoing with a detailed video forthcoming.
