I'm down in Cape Coral, FL and we have had mornings cooll enough where the glowplug light comes on in my GMC Coplorado diesel. We do a fair amount of cool waether camping but since this plugs into the OBD port, it should be reading the ECM an have the intelligents to wait if needed.
I think that the 10 seconds delay where I hear the fuel pump and some clicking under the hood is where it is warming the glow plugs. My F350 did the same thing. I started it when it was 24 degrees outside and it worked without any issues.
