Claim:
1. A system for regulating a temperature of a battery of a vehicle, the system comprising: a fan configured to selectively supply airflow to a battery of a vehicle, operation of the fan being dependent on a temperature of the battery and a speed of the vehicle; wherein the fan supplies cooling airflow to the battery when (a) the temperature of the battery is above an extreme upper temperature threshold, and (b) the temperature of the battery is between an upper temperature threshold and the extreme upper temperature threshold, and the speed of the vehicle is below a speed threshold; and wherein the fan does not supply cooling airflow to the battery when (a) the temperature of the battery is between the upper temperature threshold and the extreme upper temperature threshold and the speed of the vehicle is above the speed threshold, and (b) the temperature of the battery is below the upper temperature threshold.
