No, I got a pair of regular 100ah for $285ea, for those savings I can add some external 12v pads and a temp controller for ~$40. My buddy needed batteries sooner than me and got the same ones before ski season and he camped in his hardside truck camper most weekends this winter. He set up external pads and a temp controller like that and would use those to warm the batteries before a trip if needed but said in general the camper warmth and internal heat the cells generated while powering the camper kept them warm enough almost the entire time, IE he didn't need to use the pads while actually camping much.The Powerurus looks like a nice battery and gets a good review. Did you get the self heating model? I would like to go skiing in winter and it seems as this might be necessary to keep the battery charging. Do you have any experience with using in cold temperatures? Thanks again for your advice.
I believe he used this controller Amazon.com
Pads would be something like this Amazon.com
