As for cold weather issues I live in extreme weather conditions both hot and cold , normally when it's cold it doesn't get really cold enough inside my van to mess with the lifepo4, on days when the temp really drops like 2 days ago we had negative 4 degrees Fahrenheit with a feels like temp of 35 below zero Fahrenheit I dial my heater to the lowest setting and it trickles heat toward the battery, some people put elect seat heaters with thermostat controls around there lifepo4 battery , no issues.
If you don't know anything about lifepo4 I would buy a single Battleborn 100ah lifepo4 or equivalent and play with that.
Instead of spending a bunch of time trying to figure out how to set up a cheap battery system just suck it up and pay for the one that is complete.
Then you have a system that works and you can tinker in your spare time learning how to build a cheap one , by the time the Battleborn wears out you will know how to build a cheap lifepo4 but for now just buy

Are you a boondocker?
What do you use to charge?
Alternator?
Solar panels?
Genset and 110 volt charger?
