I am glad that this extension worked. Otherwise I could have really damaged the battery reading under direct sunlight. Temps. shot up from 28°C indoors to 48°C in a little over 20 minutes. I didn't dare to test it any further. In Android devices charging is stopped when battery temp. reaches 50°C to prevent irreversible damage. I had put a pretty thick case but its removal didn't do much if at all. However a USB Fan was able to stabilize temps. at 40.5°C. Peak ambient temp. at 35°C.
