Sometimes the collective wisdom and experience in these forums are useful. My first season in regular 100+ heat so I was hoping for experienced opinions, not wise assery.
Unfortunately the internet and HDF are also full of misguided information, no matter how well intentioned. We each have to evaluate anything we read! Even the experience of an individual can be misleading, no matter what that is.

Industry, including the MoCo, put an enormous amount of development and testing into their products, way more than any individual will ever achieve, and in conditions that most of us will avoid if at all possible. Place your faith where you choose - with caution!
