suggest a heated mattress cover
my wife is always cold. we have a true queen in our TT. is there a heated mattress cover that will run on 12v? or do i need to get an inverter to power it off grid?

A modest 5 amp electric blanket means 50 amps at 12 volts. That would pull down an averaged sized battery to half power every hour of use.
That sounds scary, but there are 10 heat settings, and #1 or 2 is all I've ever needed. The heat cycles - it's not on all the time - and overnight it uses very little power.
If you turned this thing up past 3 you'd cook yourself.
