depends on what temp you use. on high a few hours, on low all day. needs to be chatged daily.

It slightly varies, but usually about 2 weeks. I have found however, that battery life is shortened in very cold weather.

I've had mine 2 years so I can't give you an answer on how long it will last but I didn't have it on a battery tender last winter, (Arkansas winter - mostly ice) and after sitting for a few months it was still at 92%. So while it lost a bit over time, it still cranked my RoadStar 1700 without a problem.

I have not experienced any problems and I have taken it out in sub-freezing temps a few times.

It has worked fine in the cold and I'm in North Idaho. Battery life is reduced, but that would be the case for anything that uses batteries. As far as water resistance goes, I've tried to keep it sheltered so I can't tell you.

They have lasted for over 6 months, we do turn it off at times, like when it is real cold outside but we have not had battery issues what so ever

I purchased one back in the summer for the grand-daughter, so this is our first winter, but it is sitting out in our detached garage in cold Tennessee weather. It's hasn't been extreme cold yet, but you have given me an idea that I might put a folded up blanket over the back end where the battery is, just in case. Taking the battery out and bringing it into the house is not something I personally want to do. It might be an easy thing, but this 71 yr. old granny doesn't want that job.

Charge it before storage & charge it a couple days before use , this kind of battery doesn't require to be charged all winter long.

Can't speak for MI as I live in CO but it gets pretty cold here and batteries seem to last about 3-4 months in winter and longer in other quarters so I end up changing them twice a year on average.

Sorry we haven't used it enough to know. We got it for outside use and the weather has been bad since we got it. However, it has been sitting in a cold garage for several weeks and I went to charge it up and the charge was almost full even though it has been sitting in a very cold garage. Hope someone else can give you a better answer.

I live in a very cold place, this type (lipo) of battery heats up when in use, but leave out in cold without using will probably ruin them.

I also leave it plugged in when not in use, keeps the battery from depleting during the loong winter

I have installed this device last fall and have been using it many times during the winter and have had no problems with any drain on the battery.

The cold does not affect this battery too much. My wife doesn't ride her scooter during the winter so the battery goes pretty low while just setting there all winter. However, I put a charger on the battery for a few hours and the scooter starts right up. I'm sure a trickle charger would keep it going during the winter but it's not going to be ridden so why keep it charged?

I have an RV and store the battery during the winter hooked up to it. It's now 6 years old and still fine.

I live in northern NJ, where the winter temps range in the teens to low 20's. The tenders have kept my batteries fines for years. A college buddy lives near Fairbanks Alaska. He keeps his cars on tenders through each winter night to prevent the battery from freezing or going down. In the morning, he disconnects, drives to work, and then attaches again at their special parking lots. They are designed for heater and battery plug-ins.
