.0374ga 10-20 wh of battery for a theoretical 15 min each time i start my truck Vs 750w block heater 24/7 or burn .5 ga per hr 12gal a day. to idle for months.. + no idle laws ..
An air cooled12 hp diesel $1200 ($300 +$900 shiping)Now if it will start and proform at -40° f/c add a genset head a diesel with no load is a cold diesel
An apu ( auxiliary power unit) for Over the road trucks is a better idea imho heat, cool, power and the ability to sleep(air cooled diesels are very loud)
