I use a 100 Watts light bulb that I leave on 24 hours.  It keeps the engine a bit warmer but mostly dry which I consider more important because a 'car' engine usually starts ok in cold weather.

Question:

 

Do you guys who live in cold climates (e.g.; like Canada) use some type of oil sump heater in the winter for your aircraft rotary engine?
