MPPT 2420 LC "No battery temp sensor" detection does not work anymore on v21.0 #126

Description

@hogthrob

The calculated "open sensor" temperature on the MPP 2420 LC is around -32.5 and not below -50 as required for

if (bat_temp > -50) {

to do its magic. Was working with old firmware from 2019. Could not see the difference in the code easily, looks to me more or less identical, hence raising the issue here. I personally solved the problem by entirely disabling the sensor via an mppt_2420_lc.overlay file in the app directory:

/ {
        pcb {
                version-str = "v0.10";
                version-num = <10>;
        };

        adc-inputs {
                // /delete-node/ temp-bat;
        };
};

but it would be nicer, if we get back the original automatic detection capability.
