UPDATE: Heated 9" Oculus available here: https://www.oraclelights.com/produc...for-jeep-wrangler-jl-gladiator-jt-heated-lens

Hello northern friends! We are working on a heated lens option for our 9" headlight and wanted to get some feedback from the members here.
There are a few ways we are currently exploring to wire the heating element, your feedback would help us design a product that best fits your needs.
Do you prefer the heating element to work off of a temperature sensor to turn the heat on and off based on a pre-set temperature threshold? Would you rather a separate power cable that can be tapped to the defroster switch or to a manual switch?
Option 1: Temperature Sensor
Pros: Easy to install, no additional wiring.
Cons: Power is jumped from the headlight power input so the heater would not turn on unless you turn the headlights on.
Option 2: Separate Power Cable Tapped to Defroster
Pros: Will start defrosting the headlights with windshield defroster when vehicle is remote started.
Cons: Requires additional wiring connection during installation.
Let us know your thoughts!
