Mine typically maxes out at about 40°C. Due to altitude I'm typically 7°C cooler than you would be on the coast.

I have a solar ventilator in the top of the dome. Prior to installing that I used to get max temps up in the mid to high 40s.

My max min thermometer inside the obs (which hasn't been reset for about 12 months) currently shows 41°C.

I believe from my electrical engineering friends that about 40°C is the limit for reliability in electronic gear.
