Hey folks,

I have a new to me solar setup in a cabin I purchased, and the batteries are inside. They’re two deep cycle marine batteries, flooded style. I’m worried about whether they should be outside, in case they put out dangerous gases.

I was thinking batterie box, but then I got to thinking about temperature issues in the various different temps we experience here (-40C ish all the way to plus 40c) thoughts?

The cabin is well insulated so I was wondering about seeing if I could vent the batteries where they are now and maybe build a small enclosure or something of the sort.

Appreciate any insights thanks
