Protect Your EV Battery with Smart Environmental Monitoring
If you own an electric vehicle (EV), you already know how important battery performance is to your driving experience. But did you know that temperature and humidity can significantly impact your EV battery’s health and longevity?
Monitoring these environmental factors with a TempIQ Sensor can help protect your battery, maximize range, and prevent costly repairs. In this article, we’ll explain why temperature and humidity matter and how TempIQ can help you keep your EV battery in peak condition.
Why Temperature and Humidity Matter for EV Battery Health
EV batteries, especially lithium-ion models, are sensitive to environmental changes. Excessive heat or moisture can lead to long-term degradation, reduced performance, and even safety hazards.
The Risks of High Temperatures
- Accelerated battery aging
- Reduced charge capacity
- Thermal runaway and fire risk
The Dangers of High Humidity
- Corrosion of connectors and internal components
- Short circuits
- Sensor malfunctions and reduced efficiency
Monitoring these factors is not just smart—it's essential for maintaining EV battery health.
