That's an interesting idea. I suspect the reason mine has been OK so far is likely due to having the case buried beneath other stuff (blankets, etc.) or stuffed in an emergency roadside bag.

One more post and you're at 10k!

Garage
FWIW, Noco currently has a Cyber Monday deal - the GB70 2000 amp for $123.41
https://www.amazon.com/NOCO-GB70-Ult...=ATVPDKIKX0DER

Claims its up to task for a 6.0 Diesel... I have no experience with this one, I use their NOCO Boost Pro 4,000 Amp Jump Starter and it works fantastic.

Audew and 7.3 PSD

I got the Audew last week and tried it out today on our 7.3 psd. I left the lights on til battery was at 11 volts... van would slowly turn over but not start. Hooked up the Audew and it started right up. Rig hadn't run all day and about 38 deg. outside temp. Looking good.

Good to hear, haven’t needed to use mine yet. I wonder if storing it in the aluminess box would be a good idea, for fire suppression, wonder how hot they get inside. Might have to put one of my remote temp units in there next time I’m in hotter temps, but I do keep a small 5gal propane tank in there, that would not be a good combination!
