MPW tyre warmers

[DNCN]

Been considering new tyre warmers. My 10 year old Race Tech ones are near the end of their life and have never properly fitted a 200 section rear.

Have noticed MPW seem to be popular in the garages these days.

Assume a few here must use them? I am looking at the digital ones with the thermostat Anything to be cautious about, or other brands I should be looking at? Or are MPW a good budget option?

thanks,

I have the basic Capit, been absolutely fine for five years

I swear by the Diamond warmers and I note that Alpha Racing sell branded Diamond warmers. The temp is highly adjustable so that I can lightly warm road tyres/wets or super heat slicks. I usually run them at 85c with slicks.

I think you have to spend a lot to beat them.
I've not used MPW to compare.

The MPW ones I am looking at are £208 so even the Diamond and Capit look a bit spicy in comparison! |

I've had two sets of MPW, the standard Orange and the Digital Grey sets.
They work well and are used on the BSB grid which gave me the confidence to buy them in the first place.
Now using the digital Diamond ones

I use Thermal Technology Tri-Zone.

Expensive but I like the fact they full adjustable but also heat the rim.

How often are you guys using the thermostat to adjust temps, or are you using it just to know they are working and up to temp ~85 deg?

I fluctuate between 85 - 100.
