A car power source apparatus is provided with a driving battery which
drives an electric motor, heaters which heat the driving battery, a
control circuit which controls power to the heaters, a temperature sensor
which detects battery temperature and issues a detected temperature
signal to the control circuit, and a surrounding temperature sensor which
detects surrounding temperature and also issues a detected temperature
signal to the control circuit. When the car is not being driven and the
driving battery is heated via the heaters powered by the driving battery,
the set temperature is changed corresponding to the detected surrounding
temperature in the control circuit.
