Product Description
12 Volt Cab Heater and Fan for Compact Equipment
This compact ceramic heater is intended for 12-volt skid steers, excavators, UTVs, and compact tractors. It connects directly to the machine battery and delivers 300 watts of heat. Switch to fan mode when you want air movement without heat, then aim the airflow with the swivel base.
What is included
- 12-volt ceramic heater and fan with swivel base
- 15-foot, 12-gauge power cord with ring terminals
- Installation hardware
Electrical and size specifications
- Electrical connection: direct to a 12-volt battery
- Heater output: 300 watts
- Circuit protection: install a 30-amp inline fuse on the red positive wire, or use a vehicle fuse-panel connection capable of 30 amps, following the owner's guide and the machine manufacturer's requirements
- Dimensions: 6 x 8 x 6 inches
- Product weight: 2.95 pounds
Check your machine before ordering
Confirm that your machine has a 12-volt electrical system, a suitable mounting location, a protected cable route, and the required circuit capacity. The heater uses a direct battery connection; it does not plug into a dashboard accessory socket. Use it only while the machine is running to avoid draining the battery, and treat it as supplemental heat rather than a replacement for the machine's primary heater.
Common questions
Which machines is this heater sold for?
It is sold for 12-volt skid steers, excavators, UTVs, and compact tractors. Confirm the electrical system and mounting space on your machine before ordering.
Can I use the fan without heat?
Yes. The unit has heat and fan modes with adjustable fan speed.
How is it powered?
The included 15-foot, 12-gauge cord connects directly to the battery with ring terminals. The owner's guide requires a 30-amp inline fuse on the positive wire, or a 30-amp-capable vehicle fuse-panel connection.
Working on cab visibility too? See the electric wiper kit and CM-40 wired backup camera.

Bought a small heater from O'Reiley's last yr and was very disappointed in it could hardly feel the heat , is this heater able to keep inside of bobcat cab warm ??
I've had a few customers tell me they work really well, but at the end of the day - it is still a small electric heater. I would not expect it to perform like your car heater or a factory equipment heater, but I do think it will help to provide some level of additional heat.
I do sell a TON of these heaters, and I don't think we've ever had any complaints about htem not doing a good enough job.
I hope this helps!
Thanks,

Would this work in an electric Hyster forklift?
As long as you can tap into a 12 volt power source, it will work great!
Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.2 / 5 from 65 reviews.
installed the heater in a 2020 Polaris pro. Works great keeping the cab warm even with the vinyl door kit installed on it.
Installing this cab kit was an experience, the side windows had to be installed on the inside of the cab. We had to disassemble many all the controls inside the cab in order for the windows to fit properly. We had to trim parts of the cab and parts of the side windows in order to fit. The door is made very good, very solid, the only thing we had to modify for the door was the striker, It did not fit properly. It took many hours to fit this cab, was not easy, I will say once finished it is a nice fit.

Love the door and it fits perfectly. Directions were pretty good but a picture of the lock assembly would have been helpful. We figured it out and it works great.
Great little heater purchased for my father’s golf cart. He loves it. The mount brackets could have been a little sturdier. My husband made new ones for it.
Electric Cab Heater | Skid Steer UTV Tractor
Store owner replied: Hi Beth, thanks for sharing your feedback on the heater unit! Glad to hear it is working out well for the golf cart.
Overall, a great heater for the money. Only complaints are that the red LED light stays on if directly wired to battery, and the unit tends to move (pivot) within the mount while operating the machine. Takes the chill out of the cab with when used with a vinyl cab enclosure. However, it really heats up the cab nicely once I was able to seal the gaps around the enclosure.
Awesome heater works very well for my skid steer. Shipping was fast. Thanks.
I would start out by saying your customer service is excellent. I would feel extremely comfortable making a future purchase. The first heater stopped working within 6 hours. You kindly sent me a new one no questions asked Thank you! The second heater stopped working within 12 hours. These heaters are absolute junk! I literally threw $200 out the window.

The heater has been installed for 2 weeks and has begun to work intermittently.
12 Volt Cab Heater | Skid Steer UTV Tractor
Store owner replied: Hi! Sorry to hear that, if it keeps working intermittently, and checking your connections doesn't help, then let me know and we'll set up an exchange for you! Thanks, Nathan
Unlike the windshield wiper, this comes with way too much wire for the power supply. The mounting options for this are pretty poor. The supplied bracket is pretty cheap plastic and only works if you can install it directly under the unit, Which is most skid steer applications in non viable. The glue holding the label on came undone before I even took the unit out of the box. I hope this isn’t a sign of what’s to come…

Store owner replied: Thanks for the feedback! If you run into any issues with this just let us know, it should work fine despite the peeling label!
Very cheap heater. Bracket should not be made of plastic as it won’t last bouncing around in a skid steer. Hopefully it will last
12 Volt Cab Heater | Skid Steer UTV Tractor
Store owner replied: Hi Peter, Your input is appreciated, I'm sure that the bracket will hold up, we've sold quite a few of these for skid steers and have only had one or two breaks over the years. If it does happen let us know! Thanks, Nathan
The little heater is working as expected. Easy to install. Bracket could be better, doesn’t hold the position as well as it should.
