The temperature does not affect to charge stored in the batteries, right? However, you have to use the battery to heat itself as well as heat the bus (unless you got diesel heater or something for the cabin).
- withinboredom 3y agoIt’s pretty well known (in industries that use batteries) that temperature affects the capacity of batteries.
- pxeboot 3y agoBatteries produce electricity through a chemical reaction. When it is colder, that reaction creates less electricity. If you fully charge a battery, freeze it, then warm it back up, it will still be close to fully charged.
