Temperatures generally stay mild in east Tennessee during the winter, however we do drop below freezing from time to time. I'm pretty new to the solar community so I'm learning. My understanding is lifepo4 batteries need mild temperature above 32°F to charge and this battery will be outside under a chicken run, of course the run is covered on top with roofing but the sides are wire. Battery will be protected from rain but temperatures as noted, do drop below freezing here. The bottom not pictured is also a piece of foam that the battery shipped with for packaging. The bottom piece of wood has two 7/8 cuts on both sides for airflow during summer months as temperatures then can reach 95°F. I plan on removing the foam during the warm months for airflow and probably add a fan later on if needed.
Will this setup work or do I need to rethink this?
Also battery will be mounted to a 4by4 post approximately 5 feet from ground
Thanks in advance for input
