"For use with one seat only. Seat heater draws 6 amps on high 2 amps on low."

If the 6 amps burns your bum, then charge up a 12 volt battery before you leave and when you get back.

Some campers here run an electric blanket via an inverter off a 12 volt battery all night. On low/medium draw isn't much.
