Review: K&H 80-Watt Universal Deicer, Chicken Water Heater

Short answer, recommended with caveats.
We just cane out of a 'once in a decade' cold snap here in South Carolina.
It was 12 degrees the night before filming and the water in the bowl had a thin layer of ice on it, and the water in the main tank was partially frozen.
This is a standard Tractor Supply waterer which has a significant air gap between the tank and the heating element. I'm pretty sure a flat bottomed waterer this would not have frozen even at these temps.
For regular usage, where it only gets down to about 20 to 25 degrees this will have no issues keeping the water thawed, which is all I need for around here, and this will keep me from chipping ice first thing in the morning.

I got the deicer at the local tractor supply for about $60, it can be found elsewhere online a bit cheaper, but I needed it fast and didn't want to wait for shipping.
Lowest price was at Chewy.com
