Weeks and months at 13.6V WELL above 77F can't be good for the batteries long term.
Hmmm ... my RV battery manufacturer says to float them in the range of 13.5 volts to 13.8 volts ... so weeks and months and years (in our back yard) of these kind of volts is good for them. I do disconnect them from the voltage source during 90+ degree days, however.
FWIW and interestingly, I believe that Mex disregards what his manufacturer says about float voltage and floats his Lifeline battery at about the same voltages as I use on my brand of RV batteries.
