My question is: what is the tradeoff with the hotter plugs? I assume
it's
shorter life and maybe more draw on the battery, and maybe higher
purchase
price. If there are no tradeoffs, then why doesn't everyone use them?
You got it right, except the battery draw thing. The plugs aren't
so much hotter, unless you're talking about parallel versus series
plugs, but the afterglow function really helps the just-after-start
running. The parallel plugs draw nearly double the current until
they heat up, hence the faster heating.
