Just buy a Reefer container fully insulated ready to go
Did consider this however adding the 50mm insulation panels is essentially achieving the same results. Modding a standard container is also much easier then working with a reefer (cabling, welding, etc).

heat waves at night coming off the metal will interfere with your viewing pleasure.
I had considered this. I'm hoping that the separate colorbond roof will prevent the containers heating up. I will also plant bushes around the Obs to try and keep the direct sunlight off the containers. If it's still a problem I guess I could use highly reflective (heat resistant) paint.
