If you think you're badly off, you need to try an electric car heater!
:-)




I've often wondered about them. I guess they are hopeless then? Big drain
on battery as well?


Yep.
Resistance heater works off the traction battery in my car.
Knocks about 25% off the range.
Car can be preheated/cooled when it's on charge.
