The typical wattage of a block heater usually ranges from 400 to 1,500 watts, with most commonly used models around 750 to 1,000 watts. The wattage needed may depend on the engine size and the climate conditions. Higher wattage heaters can provide quicker heating, which is beneficial in extremely cold temperatures. It's important to choose a block heater that matches the vehicle's specifications and local climate needs.
