Years ago I had a timer on my ice eater. However it ran for hundreds of hours when there wasn't even ice on the lake. Then it didn't run long enough to keep the ice clear in very cold conditions.

Now I use an Ice Eater Thermostat that turns it on when the temperature is below freezing. It is on when ice is forming, and off when it is not.
