Implement a "PWM mode" for dew heater module #248

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if it would be possible/easy to implement a PWM system for the heater operation?
At the moment, in order not to run the heater all the time (so that it doesn't heat up more than necessary) I have to play with the ‘Delay’ and ‘Max Heater Time’ parameters (Delay every 5s and Max Heater Time for 15s, per example the heater is set to ON for 15s and OFF every 4 iterations and 5s long).
This works quite well, but I have the impression that I'm deviating from the expected behaviour.
I'm open to discussion on how to develop the algorithm.
