How Do Self-Heating Lithium Batteries Work?

We installed these 2 x 100Ah Renogy Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries with Self-Heating Function in our camper back in the summer of 2023. It wasn't until early December in Taos, NM that we got a chance to test out the self-heating capacity.

The nighttime temps dropped to the single digits, and when we woke up the temperature was a crisp 9 degrees Fahrenheit outside. By the time we cleared the snow off of the roof top solar panels, the battery heaters had engaged and brought the batteries back up to charging temperature in about 20 minutes.

The Renogy ONE Core monitor displayed when the heating status was on and off.
