I seek information on what others use to heat batteries when it is cold. I am leaning towards 12 volt heating pads of some kind. I am not sure how warm my battery compartment stays when the heat is on. And it wont be on when traveling. Is there a pad with a built in thermostat? Can anyone recommend reasonably priced 12 volt thermostat(under $40). Thank you in advance.

Get yourself a wireless Thermometer with remote sensors from Amazon, place one sensor on the batteryโ€ฆ

I was looking at THESE but I ended up mounting my battery inside the camper so the furnace keeps it warm. I may concider these when I do the 5th wheel. these are low power so you would definatly have to have the batteries in a insulated container for them to be effective.

you would also need somthing like THIS to controle them.

Go to an automotive parts house. Battery plate and battery wraps have been made for over 75 years. They are in the same department as engine block heaters. Check on Amazon, should be between 30.00 to 100.00.

Battle Born Batteries has heat pads for sale. They aren't cheap though
