For those Interested I got an update to this thread for a job I had to do this last week.
I had to map 20 buildings in El Paso and needed to be able to recharge batteries as quickly as possible to get them all done in 4 days. I have a power inverter built into my truck so I could run a battery charger and remote control charger from 110V. I kept the truck running, with AC, while I was working so that after flying the batteries would cool down as quickly as possible and could be charged. (FYI, I have 10 batteries for my
M2P, so this worked really well). As soon as one was fully charged, I put it in a ziploc bag with a
50g desiccant and put it in my mobile refrigerator. I got the refrigerator on amazon (
Alpicool CX30). I looked up the dewpoint for El Paso and set the temperature 1 degree above that. The refrigerator is exceptionally good because I can dial in the temp I want and it does a good job of holding it there.
If i had to go in somewhere, the refrigerator had enough room to put anything heat sensitive inside, with a desiccant just in case. The refrigerator runs on 12V and it was very power friendly so I didn't have to worry about it running my truck battery down while it kept everything cool (it has a power protection setting to shut off in case it senses it's draining your battery).
The last day I was there, I cycled all the batteries out of the cooler and placed them in room temp storage after charging.
The whole thing worked great. The only problem I had was that the RC would run out of juice after 3 batteries or so. It was the first thing I would shut off and get charging right away. I was using dronedeploy so I couldn't use my
smart controller.
It was funny that this job came up right after we were discussing all of this, so I had a pretty good plan for what to do when it came up. --> and good justification for buying a refrigerator for the truck!!
Thanks all!
