There is a required temperature in order for a battery to operate efficiently. A lead/acid type of battery reaches the heat climax at 90 degrees Celsius. As a result, the plate output and recharging competence will be affected.
If the temperature is too low, the battery’s capacity and energy transmission is affected. It can cause plate corrosion and housing deterioration.
On the other hand, if the temperature gets too hot, its chemical reaction slows down and reduces the output of the battery.
