Hey Wesley! Furrion still hasn't released a heat strip for the Chill Cube, and after a year we don't have an ETA. The only solution right now would be to swap out your regular Chill Cube unit for one of the new heat pump models. Since you have a Brinkley that will be a ducted setup and you can use # FR84TQ (black) or # FR24TQ (white). You already have a Chill Cube so you won't need a new air distribution box, just the unit itself
I understand the cost is pretty high here, so unless you really want the heat pump models you could run something like an RV fireplace or space heater until the heat strip is released.
Any big trips coming up with your Brinkley?
