Does this use of {-Daq} work?
I mean, I know in English, we do use the preposition “at”, but unless we are talking about where the needle of a dial points, this seems like an odd use of the concept of locative.
So, if I diss something, I should come up with a positive suggestion, right?
… aaaaand the word order is a little wonky.

The word order is wrong, but the -Daq is correct:
wa'logh pa' bujDaq maySon chavlu'ta' superconductivity achieved once in an average-temperature room
The -Daq applies to the achievement taking place in a room of average temperature, not "at room temperature."

An opportunity to play with some new vocabulary: {buj} “be neither warm nor cool” and {maySon] “superconductivity”.
