Hi Hugh,
The other thing to consider with heat is that higher temperatures
while increasing capacity also decrease life ( more active chemical
reactions, and conversely lower temps increase battery life.
Yes this appears to be the only downside of high temperature and a
serious downside at that. So we need to buy more PV (and run AC) so
as to have to buy less batteries (less soon). Makes sense possibly.
Sorry I did not get the story clear the first time.
