"Warming up" the EFIS

Got a new EFIS equipped toy and I am already bored waiting the 2 to 3 minutes after each start up to get the gizmo warmed up / initialized. Not to mention the thought of how much money we are wasting each time with all the prolonged ground running.

Does anyone with a helicopter featuring EFIS start the system on ground power before starting the engine? If so what are the considerations? People I discuss this with talk about power surges and the like.
