Just put the bottle in the floorboard of your car and turn the heater on high. It will heat up pretty fast that way also.

is heating that important? Would it be bad to use at room temperature?

I was just pricing out things I will need:

255lph Fuel pump ~100
HSW Controller ~160
HSW Dry kit ~290 (10lb) ~400 (15lb)
HSW Heater ~130

550+ship on 10lb no heater
660+ship on 15lb no heater
680+ship on 10lb w/ heater
790+ship on 15lb w/ heater

How many hits would I get from a 10lb vs a 15lb bottle? Is it worth it?

Heating is essential if you want optimum performance. I turn on my heater when it get's around 65 degrees or below.

If you're asking me, then no i don't. As long as the pressure is up, there's no need to run the heater.

bottle pressure is very important, to low your 75 shot turns into a 30 to high your selonoids stick open. optimul pressure is between 900-1050. I run my heater if the pressure drops below 900.

Hmmm, may be a good idea to get a heater then... what size bottle do you run? how many runs do you get out of it on the 125 shot?
