Ad Tech and Rabbit,

The current ambient outdoor temperature at 5,600 feet
is almost 100f. In the lower deserts, the ambient temperature
is over 120f. Now, take a small, enclosed case, filled with
rather delicate electronics...... See how long they hold up.....
I've seen melted circuit boards, melted plastics, and melted
and burned electronic components. Know matter how good
the quality, heat is the enemy of electronics. That is why
auto manufacturers have moved the most expensive and most
delicate electronics inside the car, usually under a seat, where
the heat impact is lessened......
