heated blankets ?

[lx450landcruiser]

any one using one while camping? i thought it would be great for the roof top tent but im looking for something with a low draw on the battery. costco has some small ones i looked at but no mention of how much power they use.

any suggestions?

If he doesn't chime in PM Spressomon, I know he has used one.

I've got the King or the Queen size I forget. It has two separate rheostats to control temp on each side.

I run a regular household e blanket. I think it draws like 90 watts and is intermittant so we run it off my 800 watt square wave inverter. (I disconnected the fan on the inverter so there is no noise). It has kept the wife and I toasty in the truck bed at 20 degrees. We make a regular bed to allow me access to all her accessories. Plus she can put her feet on me when they get cold.
