Here in sunny Thailand we have an ambient temp daytime of 32 deg C, I was toying with air conditioning a small room for the lithium batteries when I build my home system, when it occurred to me to use a chest freezer with an external temp controller to keep a bank of batteries at an ambient of say 25 deg C.
Anyone done this already?
Can any of you think of any reasons why not please, would there be any vent issues or something like that?
Seems to me to be a pretty cost efficient and low power consumption way of keeping the batteries at the right operating temp.
Much appreciated
Edit:
I run a fermentation fridge for my home brew on a temp controller at 20c already so am familiar with the concept.
