Battery Charge and Engine Cranking Power

As the temperature gets colder, your engine not only requires more power to start, but it also receives less power from the battery. As you can see in the chart above, your battery's power drops to 65-percent of its normal capacity at the freezing point. At this same temperature, the engine needs 65-percent more cranking power than it would normally need in 80-degree weather. By using this thermal wrap on your battery you can ensure that the battery will maintain the same amount of power that it has in warm temperatures. As a result, your engine will get the cranking power that it needs to help ensure a successful startup.

Great product. We use these on agriculture machines. Has kept our batteries warm and we have not experienced any battery swelling issues (due to cold weather). Product was easy to install and has performed well. No complaints!!!

Great product and very fast shipping t hanks

Needed a heater for the batteries in our semi to keep them from freezing. Shipped quickly. Showed up packaged well. Installation was easy. Seems to be a well made product. etrailer is a great place to order



by:

Awesome unit. I use it for my electric golf cart to keep the batteries warm during the winter months.

I assume it works. Based on the product instructions I plugged it it when it was really cold and northern Minnesota can get really cold. I assumed the warmth could be felt on the outside on the bottom of where the batteries are, I think it was warmer, maybe? At the end of the really cold part of winter the batteries didn't freeze, so I guess it worked! It came when it was supposed to and came to my house. Previously, going with another company, it was shipped 200 miles away from me, what a pain.

When my battery heater went out on my Generac 20KW stand by generator, I used this heater from E trailer used thermostat and wire connector from old unit they were still good, Generac wants about $80.00 for new this is much more economical.

I used this through a winter in the north where it regularly is at subzero temperatures. Truck always started without any issues. I also had heat pads on the oil pan and transmission that I bought from etrailer. At -40+ degrees the truck always started relatively easy.



by:

Already had one and it works great, really helps save your battery on cold days and makes starting/cranking speeds faster instead of the slow crank you get when your battery is cold, i consider it a must have for winter where we get to -20 easily. The last one I got was from another site and cost at least 20% more there, so definitely happy I could get the same product for cheaper here.



by:

Just as advertised. This Kat's battery heater will be keeping the battery warm in a whole house backup generator for when it gets real cold here in northern Wisconsin. It's connected to a thermostatic switch that's set to turn on at 10 degrees.



by:

Cust. service is top notch. Thank you for contacting the USPS to locate my package. It got their attention. They were reluctant hand it over. After speaking with the Postmaster we finally received our Kat's battery heater. Made in the USA. Thank you for your much valued time for all your wonderful agents in your customer service dept. Also, it was packaged very well & arrived in great shape.



by:

Very good product. Worked fiawlessly. Used it for a re-conditioned battery which begins to freeze @ about 15 - 16 F. Kept it from freezing overnight on several nights. Also purchased a battery pad heater for another car with a slightly larger battery. The pad heater did the same thing perfectly. If you live in the northern parts of the US and want to use re-conditioned batteries (Epsom salt & distilled water) over the winter, these heaters are essential for protection from freezing. Thanks etrailer.



by:

Heats up well and keeps battery's warm, just the ticket for diesel pickup trucks on sub zero days. Combined with a block heater even the coldest mornings are no trouble.



by:

We placed this unit into a Generac 20kw standby generator. Unit is controlled by a thermo switch on at 0 degrees F / off at 30 degrees F. Works fine to keep the unit ready for any power outage. We used a piece of 1/4" coated plywood between the heater and the battery to prevent overheating the battery bottom. This is the 5th similar installation. Others have been in service for 6+ years.



by:

The battery warmers I ordered from etrailer was just what I needed to protect my boat batteries from the ice cold temperatures this past winter, since I couldn't store them inside. They worked perfectly with an thermal switch.
Thank you etrailer for a great product.



by:

Have bought two Kat's battery heaters over the past 5 years. Both worked fine for a year or two and then burned out-quit working. Am on my third now from another company. Worked fine till they didn't. Am going out today and check on the new one. 20 F tonight. Have it on backup generator.



by:

Very warm, your battery thinks it’s Jul y!



by:

the heater pad burn out about 30 days after I installed it junk im not happy with that at all



by:

Jonathon at eTrailers help me verify this product would work in a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe AWD 2.0T.

Installation was done by a 3rd party for free.

We've had days of -20 to -30 C weather a few times now this winter. Works as it should.



by:

Great heater, works as advertised. Fit my 98 Jeep Xj perfectly. I bought it last year to try and salvage a week cranking battery when it was cold. Well, a year later I'm wrapping up the same battery for the cold months ahead! Save the strain on your bat with a Kat!



by:

The battery warmer gets quite hot it seems. I intend to run this without a timer overnight. Is this going to burn out running for 12 hours at a time



by:

Works great, perfect size because i can only wrapped 3 sides anyway. Big difference when battery is on the weak side too



by:

The product is exactly what I ordered. Three day shipping didn't turn out so well but, etrailer refunded my shipping for three day. That's very good customer service. I'll order from them in the future.

See what our Experts say about this Kats Heaters Vehicle Heaters

  • Battery and Oil Heater Recommendation for Detroit Diesel Engine
    If you wanted a battery heating pad for underneath the battery you'd want the part # KH22600 that you referenced or if you were looking for something that wraps around it you'd want the part # KH22300. If I were you I'd go with the wrapped style of heater unless you don't have the room for it. The best option we have for an engine heater would be a pad that attaches to the oil pan like the part # KH26150. Using a pad like this with a battery heater would make cold start ups MUCH easier...

  • Can Kat's Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap # KH22300 be Used for Extended Periods of Time
    Yes, you can keep the Kat's Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap # KH22300 plugged in for an extended period of time like you mentioned.
    view full answer...
  • Kats Heater Compatibility with Propane Tank for Ice House
    The Kat's Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap for Diesel Truck Batteries - 125V - 160 Watt # KH22300 is what I recommend. It will wrap around your tank and you can leave it plugged in all the time. The magnetic style heater like # KH1155 you mentioned will only touch 8 square inches of a completely flat surface, so I don't believe it is the best option for your application. Although these also can stay plugged in, the surrounding aspect of the battery wrap will be a better option.

  • Largest Available Battery Heater
    We have a large selection of battery heaters, which I have linked below, that are designed to work with certain size/model batteries. In terms of physical size the largest heating pad style heater we have is the Kat's # KH22600 which measures 18 inches long, 11 inches wide, and is designed for Series 8D automotive batteries. For a thermal wrap style heater the largest we have is the Kat's # KH22300 that has a 72 inch length. It is designed for diesel automotive batteries. If you can...

  • Installation of Kat's Heater Thermal Battery Wrap
    The Kat's Heaters Thermal battery wrap # KH22200, # KH22100, and # KH22300 all have a warning not to overlap printed on the heater itself. This is partially why they come in the different lengths of 72 inches, 28 inches, and 36 inches.
    view full answer...
  • Length of Kats Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap # KH22200
    The Kat's Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap # KH22200 referenced in your question is designed for Series 24, 24F, 27, 27F, and 74 automative batteries. The wrap measures 36 inches long. Keep in mind that if it's not an exact fit, the excess can simply be wrapped around again. You will simply wrap this heater around your vehicle's battery and plug it into a 125V AC outlet. It will do a great job of maintaining its charge and ensuring that the engine turns over on those cold winter mornings....

  • Battery Heater for Group 31 Battery
    We do have a battery heater designed for your Group 31 battery, part # KH22500, which has the same 60-watt rating as the other item you referenced. Heater # KH22500 DOES NOT have a thermostat; it will continue to warm the battery as long as it is plugged in to your AC outlet. Kats recommends unplugging heaters when the ambient temperature is 32-degrees and above. The Kats Heaters Thermal Battery Wrap # KH22300 is meant for larger diesel truck batteries which is why it is a full 72-inches long.

  • Availability of Heated Battery Wraps for Trailer Battery
    We have three sizes for heated battery wraps you can pick from. We have the 36 inch long Kat's part # KH22200, the 72 inch # KH22300, and the 28 inch # KH22100.
    view full answer...
  • Battery Warmer Availability that is Longer than 70 inches
    We do have a longer than 70 inch battery warmer. We have the part # KH22300 which is 72 inches long.
    view full answer...
  • Availability of Thermal Battery Wrap for Truck
    We have thermal wraps for batteries available. You will want to measure the dimensions of your battery though to pick out the correct one. Most likely the part # KH22300 would be your best option as it is for batteries that have an area of 72 inches around them. But if not I attached a link to a page that has all of the heaters we offer. You can select the best fitting size from the filters.
