I live north and the winters are killer as it is, they're calling for an extra cold winter this year. I really don't think I'm going to make it.

I have a messed up car that's barely running for shelter. I have a job but it doesn't pay enough. I can't afford rent and bills because I need to fix my car to keep this job, I have a severe dental situation that requires immediate surgery., That's expensive. I'm fucked one way or the other.

My Plan is to hang heavy wool blankets in the back seat and make like a tent, I have about 20 lbs worth. I can connect my electric blanket to an array of power tool batteries. It's enough power to run it sporadically through the night, I'll run it underneath my other blankets. I have a really small electric heater and small power station I can run that sporadically for maybe an hour tops.

I'm really hoping these blankets hold the heat. It's not going to be enough for sustained -25°c -40°c.

Even if it does, my problem will be moisture buildup. Maybe the electric heater can deal with that. I buy moisture grabber packs that do help, but it's not enough. Wet and cold won't be great.

Charging all that power will be difficult. I can get away with charging stuff at work, I charge with my car by driving and I have a solar panel in the back window to charge the power station. But it's not enough, I can't charge cold batteries they will die. I can't think of a way to keep them warm.

I have a jetboil I could boil water a couple times a day, boil water at work. Keep all the batteries in an insulated bag with hot water bottles.

I'm worried about the gas tanks for the jetboil in those temps.

They say when you freeze to death you'll reach a point where you stop feeling pain and just kinda wig out. So that's nice.
