Subject:Carver heater experiences request

Hello all,
If any one out there has used their carver P4 in some cold weather I would like to hear how well it heats.
I know, I know, insulation is a big factor so a note as to the amount you do or don't use would be helpful.  I am interested in the approx inside temps versus outside temps (below 32 at least) and time run versus battery condition.  The reason I ask is I currently have a large gas heater I think may have been designed for old Bugs and also the type you might find in a school bus or something.  Anyway it is a power hungry thing and will drain the battery in about 3hours. But Boy does it heat!!  I mean 20's to 60's in a half hour with no insulation.  But like I said the battery life is too short to be really good. So all info welcome.
thanks
Nat.
