This pack will have to get weak enough for me to want to replace it then I will consider some kind of major upgrade that involves tearing into the battery.
Until then I may drop the pack and coat it with A•B sprayed foam. But I would probably save that till it gets cold, after I see how it does during the summer. If I insulate it too well it may not want to cool during the summer.
Constant driving and charging like I did yesterday heated it up some.
It may just need an air conditioned garage lol.
Because right now, the plan is to drive the firebird if it's going to be exceptionally hot or cold out and save the battery.
