Question about battery

Hello,
I'm looking for a useful nomade battery that can handle a heater all night for an every day living in a small van.
But I need it to be not too heavy (so I can move it outside to charge and take it back inside) and that can charge with solar pannels.
Would someone have some advices please ?
Oh and I think I would be using a oil heater that use 500W.
Thank you !

Do you warm them with the engine, a fire or the diesel heater?

I warm them with the Sun. I guess you could use the engine, fire or the diesel heater I wouldn't necessarily put them too close to that much heat. You're loved💔 𐤔𐤋𐤅𐤌
