      Would you happen to recall the dimensions of those heaters or have a link to where you purchased them.
      I have been unsuccessful at finding for something that is a decent size match for my 3(12" X 8") batteries (36" x 8" bank) The one you have pictured look they might be a decent fit.

      Oh and while I am at it, are those din mount breakers for your shore power inlet and A/C distribution? Any info/close up photos you might have would be greatly appreciated.

      Dimensions of the heaters are in the link, its some weird cm measurement. ;) Be careful with the silicone heaters on Amazon, I've measured temperatures of 350F from some and they will cook off your battery (thermal runaway).

      Here's the breaker boxes; the first box feeds shore power to the inverter and has a 30A main circuit breaker, surge suppression and a meter (only works when its plugged in to shore power). The second box is distribution from the inverter and has a GFCI main, with three 20A branch circuit breakers. The boxes are offset as they follow the wheel house curve. I use Siemens DIN rail circuit breakers whenever I can because they have a UL listing (assuming they're not china fakes) .


      The boxes are a super tight fit and hard to terminate in but they work well once you're done.

      Reviewer on Amazon showed 210 degrees, which probably isn't great for the plastic either.

      It should be put on a PID controller.
