    Ok, in 75f weather my inverter and motors are all around 100-120f with momentary spikes up around 150f under load. So, I guess those are about average temps.

    Thanks. I just went for a drive: ambient temperature 16 °C (60 °F). Torque PIDs "Converter temperature" and "MG1/MG2 inverter temperature" were around 30-35 °C (86-95 °F) and spikes around 49-54 °C (120-129 °F). I think our cooling circuits are both doing ok.
