〜けど/だけど means ~although. and if you include だ, you need ん。
暑い + だけど = 暑いんだけど
行きたくない +だけど= 行きたくないんだけど
if you don't include it, it would be
暑いけど
行きたくないけど
Does it make sense so far?
As sentences..
I don't wanna turn on the heater although it's very cold.
寒いけど、ヒーターをつけたくない。
寒いんだけど、ヒーターをつけたくない。
Does this help?

ahhhhhhh! lol
~すけど、 is like hmm how do we explain it?!
okay so usually it's 〜だけど、 right? but people often say 〜なんすけど.
For example
今日暑いんだけど。
→今日暑いんすけどー。
it includes a meaning of complaining (grumpy).

@naa: your example also brought up another question for me. When learning Japanese, lesson books said never use ん by itself. I see ん in your sentence, can you tell me more? Some lesson books are wrong. Thank you.

@naa: yes, very helpful. I think maybe I just didn't get to the lesson about this. I am a beginner. So much more to learn. Thank you.

すけど at the end of sentence makes the listener wait for what main clause will come next, which soften the meaning the said sentence.
These days, many people seems to use it as a certain meaning like ", but I don't understand why …" in order to make the said sentence impressive (jokefully, angrily, trying not to show the emotion inside yourself).
e.g. なんかすごく嬉しいんですけど…。
いま仕事中なんですけど！
