Idle ( Camry ) a lot in sunny S Calif
Is it not a good idea to beef up the battery and related parts
Thank you

Ps how to edit posts ?
 
Generally, extended idling is not good for the engine unless it is designed for that (some are).

You could add some extra hardware but the basic problem is engine coolant, engine oil, and wear on the internal engine parts.

I believe the edit window is 30 minutes...if that time period has passed and you would like some editing done (to correct a mistake for example) you can ask a moderator for help. (hover over or click their username and click [start conversation].

Realistically all you can do is purchases high output alternator from a reputable supplier. Make sure your freon is charged and at optimum levels or you can suffer in the heat. Aside from the aforementioned engine related fluids being fresh and at their proper levels.
