Sorry to have thread jacked (a bit) I now know a lot more than I did. It is good to know that the engine oil isn't being cooked / degraded - and that it is indeed warming the coolant.
There is an English product called Kenlowe hot start that does a similar thing - but it is usually fitted to the rubber coolant pipes. The adverts I have seen suggest it is a lot more powerful than the descriptions of the standard block heaters as it claims quicker de-misting of fogged up windows etc etc etc. (I'd have to check the specifications to be sure though)
