If you are going to battery power it, might aswell go with a 12V heater.

Do some power calculations, and then determine the Ah of the battery. Look up lead acid battery weight and then ask yourself are you willing to transport that much lead to gain x £.


If you do decide to go that route, there are some neat internet enabled relays, then you could switch it on and off with your mobile phone.
