What do folks do about having a dual battery system with batteries remote from each other and therefore different temperatures? Specifically in my case I'll have the starting battery in the engine compartment stock location and a second battery on the frame rail (optional stock location in some configurations). The batteries will be connected when charging from the alternator but I think the alternator will be temperature compensated and thus under charge the cooler frame mounted battery. When charging off solar the frame battery will be similar temp to the charge controller so will be ok but the other battery will be possibly in the hotter engine compartment thus over charged. I do realize that most of the time on solar the engine bay should be pretty equal temp to the ambient but when it isn't that battery will be over charged right? What to do?
