      I would be really worried about condensation in the motor after it is that cold and then getting hit with heat from the motor use.

          I'd say that looks like a solution in search of a problem.

            I personally wouldn't worry too much about the condensation that could build up in the motor, because everything will dry out very quickly once warmed up. but unlike tire warmers which are intended to pre-warm the tires before they get even hotter, this product is trying to cool a motor before it gets hot. I can't see how long a motor would stay that cold since water will be going through the cooling jacket (witch will be warmer) and the heat of the motr will be contained in the hull.

              Cooling a motor was very common in the brushed days and it WOULD run stronger longer because the mags were cold.

                I understand the concept but doesn't the water in the cooling jacket warm up the motor while the heat generated from the motor get trapped in the hull? How long will the motor stay cool before it's back at normal temps again?
