Sorry for the blank post...hit the wrong key. What I was
going to say was that the FBO probably won't roll out the
air machine for your 172, but the bizjets and King Airs use
them all the time. An example, a heat soaked Beechjet
baggage compartment will reach the NiCad battery limiting
temperature and cooling the battery should be done before
engine start.

Interesting...

I've experienced what our desert heat can do to car batteries...it ain't
good.
