You are right, it does not specifically state the ambient temperature range.
However, I think it would be sensible to use it in the range where most other electronics would be comfortable. -20 to +50°C would be reasonable.

Thanks for your reply, that's what e.g. the Color Control GX is good for.

But: It'll get quite 'warm' in the spot where we want to use it, and since the MultiPlus series is capable of ambient temperatures of up +65°C we'd like to have a bit more than 'just' +50°C.

Anybody from VICTRON Energy has an idea?
