Fellow Commander Drivers:
Some time ago I posted expressing concern that when I checked my stall warning and fuel vent heaters they did not seem to be very hot, especially when compared to the air speed petot tubes, which get so hot that you can not keep your hand on them. Someone else (sorry I can't remember who) advised that their stall warning heater did not feel very warm either. As it turns out (you can't find this out in the POH or repair manual) both fuel vent heaters and the stall warning (aka lift detector) heater all have heat sensing switches attached, which seems to bring them up to only about 80'F. Just one thing less to worry about, if you can't get them to work on the ramp when the ambient temperature is hig?.
