Oh yes, I will...

...but I turn all my logs into charts on my work computer since I don't have excel, or really any way of reading out a .csv file here at home.

So expect an answer in the form of how many minutes it takes at various outside ambient temps around 8 AM pacific time tomorrow.

Also, today was really the first cool day around here so there should be some interesting data to be found in the coming months as it gets colder at night.

In fact, I drove the Fit all day today so the cold weather combined with the car being off for more than 24 hours should give a pretty good baseline.
