Mr. Heater BOSS-XCW20 Basecamp Battery Operated Shower System

Q: I want to replace the lead acid battery in this thing with a 12v lithium motorcycle starter battery. For that, I need to know the amp hours and size.

The internal charger is not built with the stringent safety circuits for lithium-ion chemistry. Sealed lead-acid chargers are not interchangeable with Li-ion and is dangerous to do so. A 12 volt lead acid can safely receive upwards toward 14 volts, but 3 li-ion cells max out at 12.6v (3 times 4.2v cells). If the unit runs on the charger, then take a small yet powerful automotive Li-ion jump starter pack, and power it externally. Not as convenient as built-in, but Li-ion cells & chargers have much safety circuitry.

Q: since the xcw20 is rechargeable from a car battery, can it be attached to a 12 volt source for continuous operation?

Fromt he manual: DC: Connect the 12V DC adapter to the appliance then connect to a suitable outlet with the cigarette lighter (FIG. 5) •To charge the unit using the DC connector the car must be running, due to the 12V direct link to the battery system it will not show on the LED indicator. •The unit will run directly from the 12V cigarette lighter but will not charge unless vehicle is running.

Q: Can you plug this into 110

I plug into 110 to charge the unit, but have not tried to operate it while plugged in

Q: Can everything be drained enough (after use) that it doesn't get damaged by freezing temperatures during storage between uses?

Yes. I hold the 2 hoses vertical to drain them, but the one with the pump I shake (the pump) to get every last drop. The main heater unit has a drain screw underneath, I believe, but I just tilt the unit without hoses attached to drain what little water is inside. BTW, I found another use... my grand daughters plastic kiddy pool holds 70 gallons of frigid 53F hose water. One little tank of propane more than heats it into the 90's!
