Lithium Confusion
I currently store my coach in my garage plugged into 30 amp service. My new coach came with lead acid batteries. The coach has a progressive dynamics PD 4060 charger in a mighty mini power center. ...

Don: The Relion RB100-LT specifically designed to charge normally at lower ambient temperaures (-4F / -20C) - they use some of the charging power to self-heat, so that they can accept charge at a normal rate below 32F/0C. There's no chemistry involved, it's just a LiFePO4 battery that heats itself. I have 2 of them, bought last year, and they function as designed. They weren't cheap (C$1800/each) but they are worth every cent.
Hi MDKMDK,
Unfortunately I need -40. There is at least one LI chemistry that can do that--but nothing in a large format jar. Lithium titanate
Hi Don. -40? I can't imagine camping in anything at that temperature, but apparently you do. In that case, I guess your options are limited. I guess you'd better stick with lead/acid, in some form or another, until they develop miniature nuclear reactors for RVs. :B
