Note about Electric Blanket Thermostats. The Electric Blankets I have taken apart have no sensor in the blanket itself. Only the controller. So there really is no closed loop thermal control since the room temperature and the people in bed are not linked. They are linked from the cold room to

Reviving this thread as we're having another very cold stretch here in the Eastern US. My batteries (SE130 CALBs) are still going, but boy do they sag when it's cold like this. It's annoying. I've been charging when my BMS sensors (atop each cell) are over 0C, which they have generally remained
