I won't deny you could get it close, and my old wore out junk starts fairly easy motor at freezing 27F ambient without having any CS device at all, so I'm not sure how much it even matters.

The only thing you need to test it is to rotate the block at the end of the cable 90 degrees and warm up the car. If you have the engine running, I'm pretty sure you can even do that without any...
