Does this vid show on PC?
Introduced it via Tapatalk and it won't play on my Android.

Thanks for the video, interesting, the youtube video showed max temp at center vent to be around 70-71C range. Perfect.

I have played with different tstats in my 2007 Honda Odyssey and I changed it from factory vent temp of 150F (65C) to 160F (71C) by using a hotter tstat. Believe it or not the 2007 Honda Odyssey came from factory with a 77C tstat, too cold for cold climate. I fitted an 82C tstat and output went from 150F ---> 160F at center vent.

A 10F difference is huge in cold weather, trust me.

So this Estonia-made heater core output is excellent b/c it can crank out temp of 71C.

The a/c was turned off at the time so perhaps it may be somewhat lower with a/c . Looks like another testing session's in order shortly.

Watch it on Yputube scratch-n-Sniff to get the downside.....

Seriously, some aftermarket heater cores have a nasty smell problem , documented in other threads
