Windshield Wiper Heater

The Northwind wiper heater warms wiper blades through the windshield via two direct-contact radiant strips. The heating strips adhere directly to the inside of the glass opposite the parked wiper blades, quickly thawing the blades and glass around them. The Northwind’s heating elements are sealed in a clear, tough Mylar material and do not interfere with the driver’s line of sight. Installation involves a simple 12-volt cigarette lighter connection and two peel-and-stick radiant strips. The device also prevents wiper blade hydroplaning in rain.
