I want to ask a question to the Group on DIY power walls, is anyone planning for cooling?
I think that keeping the temperature of the cells below 40C would be pretty important.
I just watched this video from 2013 by Jeff Dahn.
The several takeaways that I got from the video were the following.
1.Heat Kills batteries.
2. Overcharging batteries to high Voltages above 4.2 VKills batteries
3. Leaving batteries in a high state of charge sitting at High temperature Kills batteries.
Secondary takeaways.
Lithium Cobalt batteries are the best battery chemistry for more charge cycles.
It seems pretty obvious to me that protecting your investment of time and money in building the power wall would be as important as building it in the first place.
