Has anyone kept a battle born in through winter? And how did it perform? I'm not convinced the cell temperature inside a battery (inside a battery box inside the camper) will drop below 24 F (but I've never done extensive temperature measures inside the camper). I'm guessing some of you winter campers have had experience with this.... I expect to be using the camper this hunting and ski season in outside temps that reach single digits.
I already have the BMV-712 so my plan is to install the add-on temperature sensor to get more battery temperature data and do some actual testing.
This is per BB website:
Battle Born Batteries protect themselves from charging in cold temperatures and won’t accept a charge once the internal cell temperature drops to 24°F. At this point they will continue to discharge even down to -4°F. At this temperature we recommend no longer pulling power to avoid damaging the batteries.
Insulated battery boxes, heating blankets, and placing your battery bank inside your RV will help keep the temperature stable. On the high end of temperature range, the batteries will shut down once 135°F is reached.
