Expectation of heater overnight
On a chilly Southern California desert night with temps in the low 40s, should I expect that my heater will pump warm air all night without draining my battery to "weak" levels. My batteries are newer...

HMMM, my trailer is a 2007 and detector is original, no problems and it has gone off.
This is how I felt too, my rig is the same age. However there have been some updates, and now dectors have a end of of life warning. While it might work after 10 years its possible its not. I opted to get a new one.
End-of-life warnings - required for your safety
In 2009, Underwriters Laboratories (UL), began requiring an end-of-life warning to alert homeowners when their carbon monoxide alarm has reached the end of its useful life. As an industry leader committed to safety, Kidde has included this feature in all of its carbon monoxide alarms since 2001. Kidde carbon monoxide alarms have a proven life of seven to ten years, depending on the model type.
As of 2013, ALL Kidde carbon monoxide alarms have a 10 Year life, with the following exceptions: Model KN-COEG-3 (900-0113), KN-COPE-I (900-0232) and KN-COPP-3 (900-0099).
