Just reading the Dew-Not site there seems to be a rivalry between Dew Not and Kendrick. The complaint about Kendrick was excessive power consumption and a hot spot from a wire versus a film more evenly spread as well as price. Also a 2 foot longer cord on the Dew Not.
Power consumption may be an issue as I use a generator and 5 amps at 240V is 1200 Watts and that would make the generator rev a bit which I don't want (being at night and quiet etc). It would use more fuel. So half the power consumption sounds the way to go at 2amps or less and then with sensors so it only cuts in if the temp difference is 1 degree or so. That probably only occurs just before dawn or if its windy and I use it without the dewshield I could dial it in earlier.
