Default Engine Block Heater

Hi, I have trouble understanding the difference between these two accessories:
http://www.leeparts.com/dodge_ram/ac...ck_heater.html
https://www.dodgeparts.com/product_i...oducts_id/1900
I live in the Italian Alps and winter often drops below 0 ° C, I am only interested to find the hot car in the morning.
What do you recommend?
Excuse my writing ....;-)

It appears that one works with the V6 and 4.7L and the other one is for the Hemi. the first link if you go to select option, it has a choice from 3.7, 4.7, and 5.7...the one for 5.7 is more $$

I bought the Mopar version for my 5.7. Simple to install, just loosen the starter. Also, i bought an Oil Pan heater. That works even better then the coolant heater since with warm oil, the truck cranks much easier.
