As for beer temp, I cringe when a bar pours a good beer into a frosted glass. I'm a bit of a beer snob, used to be a brewer. When beer is too cold, it hides the good flavors/aromas. But it also hides not so so good flavors of cheaper beer, so not all bad!
***Wire run length. I was surprised how much wire I needed to buy for the Li project. I only have a 20' trailer, with a ~17.5' box. By the time you run the cable down through wall from OEM controller, over side rail of frame, then up to where battery is, I'm estimating 25' run. I bought 30' lengths so I don't come up short on install. (Windy Nation).
