Sea-Dog Ceramic Heater/Defogger 450150-1, 12V 150-Watt ABS Window Defogger for Boats
The Sea-Dog Ceramic Heater/Defogger (450150-1) is a compact 12V ceramic heater designed to keep small boat windows clear of condensation. It draws 12.5 amps at 12 volts to deliver 150 watts (550 BTU) of radiant heat, enough to defog a small window area but not intended for heating a cabin or other large space. The housing is molded from durable ABS plastic and measures 5-15/16 inches by 4-5/16 inches by 3-1/16 inches.
Power comes from a 5-1/2 foot cord that plugs directly into a standard 12VDC power socket, so no hardwiring is required. The base pivots and rotates, letting you aim airflow exactly where condensation is forming, and the unit can be mounted using the included Velcro strip for a quick, no-drill installation. This makes it a simple add-on for helm stations, cabins, or any small enclosed area on a boat where window fogging is a problem.
