I always used an evaporated cooler in my hot phoenix garage when charging.
By 6am the battery pack could easily be at 70f

In Arizona, an evaporative cooler is very effective most of the year and is
ideal for a garage. Even on the hottest days, 95F air out of the swamp
cooler is better than nothing, and you'd still get much cooler air at
night. Or, run the window a/c instead on the hottest/humid days.
