I have a Victron Lithium 51.2v - 100 Ah NG - LiFePO4 battery in my van and live in a cold climate. I’m currently using a small space heater to maintain temp. This battery cannot be charged below 5’C / 41’F. Is there a battery heater that can be used with this battery? If so please provide info. Thank you
Any heating mat, such as one for a terrarium, can be used for this. Simply pack the heating mat, a thermostat switch, and the battery into an insulated box, and you’re all set.

The charging stops at 2degC not 5degC, I watched mine continue charging as temperature fell below 5degC and stop at 2degC. I discussed this with Victron and the Manuals need updating to reflect the lower temperature.
