[RE-wrenches] FLA battery setpoints with larger arrays

[Ray Walters]

Having the LVD be temperature compensated so that the load is always 
disconnected above the freeze point of the battery would be a Huge 
Improvement on the whole concept of LVD.  In combination with State of 
Charge monitoring, like the Whiz bang Jr, would be the most effective, 
and just program the disconnect to stay above freezing for a typical 
lead acid battery.  I got this from a Trojan White Paper:
