The Newest Specification Sheets of EVE Cells

The best place for the warming "silicone" pads is the bottom of the cells (best for the electrolyte).

Hi Steve!
Would you consider this positioning for a battery box in a vehicle environment?
My thoughts are around heavy weight (cells), micro movement (expansion due to different SOC) and vibration destroying the silicone heating pad, with all the bad that could arise from that.

My 12v silicone bee hive heating pads are 12 watts each. In room temperature, each pad is 150 degrees F. However, when wired in series, they are about 90 degrees F each.

My battery is in a converted cargo trailer.

So, I dangle the pads loosely on the sides of my cells. I fear that pressed up against the cells would overheat the cells at the point of contact.

Also, like Solaro said, I did not put the pads under the cells for fear that the pads would be destroyed by the weight and jiggling.

Just sayin.
