In this project I will have to solve a winter problem for the batteries of my PV system. The problem is that those can get only charged up over 5C and in my case they are placed inside a concrete garage that will get colder than that. So I will try to build a very well thermal insulated chamber that I can heat up electrically. I want to keep it save, low power and easy to use. Let's see how it turns out ;-)
