Buddy of mine tried a timer on his and never had much luck with it workin write. I have an 04 250 with a 6.0 and an 87 with a 6.9. You are absoulutly correct about how much electric they draw. I like to plug mine in before I go to bed and then Ill unplug it when Im gettin ready to leave for the farm in the morning. If I know that Im not goin to drive it anywhere for a day or two I just dont plug it in. It seems with both my trucks and when I had my 7.3 you really only had to have it plugged in for an hour or two and thtas all it needed. The way i do it works for me and my electric bill is definatly lower than when i just left it on all the time. Before you wonder how I know there is such a difference well I have a seperate service and meter for my garage than the house and thats were my truck gets plugged in at and other than the truck there isnt anything to draw anything outthere cause i shut off all the other breakers when im not out there.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
