Expert Reply:

You do not want to use a holding tank heater like ThermaHeat # 277-000164 on a battery but we do offer battery heaters specifically intended to protect one from extreme cold. You can see all such items on the page I linked for you. You'll want to select your battery heater based on the battery series you have.

For example, for a series 24 battery you can use thermal wrap # KH22200 which plugs into a standard household 125V AC outlet.
