Since it's below 10 celclus, I noticed that the power consumed is way higher than warmer days. On a 10hr charge during work, it consumed 30KW. At the end of my shift, BTL was 18 celcius. So I wonder what is the max power comsumption of this heater? Right now it doesn't matter since i'm plugging at work for free but I will surely change my routine for home charging in cold days.

if you have been measured in 10 h 30 kw . and 10 kW are charging the battery from 0 for then consumption approx . It is 2kw / h . for heat up
I think a lot, and not think it's so much you can consume heaters .
This past winter plugged 15 minutes before leaving, as recommended in the manual , but had no information on the temperature. Now that I 'll see if in 15 min up or not enough

300 W

Something is wrong with your meter - there is no way the bike pulled 30kw over 10 hours. That would mean the charger was pulling max power for the whole time.
The heaters are 300w.

....and this consume are discontinuus, warm up below 19 ºC and cut off at 21ºC, the target are 20ºC.

6 celsius in Toronto today. At first i thought something was amiss when at a stand-still the bike is pulling 300watts. Then i notice battery levels temp rising till they reached 20C.
My battery heaters work :)
