The product description says, "maximum flexibility in even the coldest temperatures". Anyone have "real life" experience with that statement?

I have used it to build homes in the dead of winter in CO and SD. One of the best cords I have ever owned.

I've used the cord in sub freezing weather. It does become more rigid in cold temps. It's still pliable for rolling up or stretching out straight.

This cord is way over kill for what your need. U will wear yourself out dragging it around. Get a 14ga 100ft Husky from the Home Depot and forget about it.

It's great just get one size bigger than you normally would and you'll have enough room for 2 thinner or 1 thick layer underneath. Its very lightweight. I'm not sure about how warm it is in extreme cold though because I just bought it.

We had a similar problem. It is the proper length just a very snug fit. Keep working at it. It helps if you can do the install when it's warm out; it'll give the material more flex. I wouldn't recommend fighting with it in cold weather. Hope this helps!

Hi Alan,I don't know. We never have cold weather here. It works fine in our shop, which seldom gets below 60 degrees.

I live in Arizona so it has never been used in the extreme cold. Used in Flagstaff at 6000 ft and around 40 degrees.

We purchased ours to use in the winter and it works great. The description says it works in hot and cold weather but I can only vouch for cold weather.

No! absolutely not!. Soft, pliable, yet very tough material. I bought 4 of them and keep them at zero temp in my freezer. Yet, they remain soft and, again, very pliable . They are quite heavy- approx. 5lbs. each. But the very weight and size of the Cold Pac makes it capable of conforming to your knee area and it wraps right around and stays in p lace. the very best Cold Pack on the market. I could sell these things to a nun with an absolutely clear conscience.

The coldest temp I used it in was about 25 degrees. It worked just fine. I highly recommend it.

Bill - we have used it in cold weather with very good results (32 degrees and above), but not sure about performance in sub zero weather. Sorry we couldn't be of more help. Have you called the manufacturer for input?

It was only about 55 degrees when I used it and it was fine. I'm not sure about really cold weather.

We are virtual opposite extremes in environment ... I live in Maui so no real cold temp concerns.... Did not read anything about it but I'm sure if you google the manual , it will tell you. Aloha, Kev

I find it as warm as a medium fill down parka, but not quite as warm as a really high fill sub arctic rated down parka. It serves me well pn MOST winter days, all but the most frigid (below zero )

Worked best in warm weather, it works in cold weather but it's not as effective. This is from personal experience.

As of yet the warmest temperature I've used it in was 80 degrees and it was quite comfortable. I've used it at 0 degree temps but was cold. It helped extremely well with the wind though. Best guess 30-85 F.

the answer is: in between. It's not totally hard, but it's not as flexible as it gets when it warms up for a few minutes. The great thing with this product is that while it's warming up, you can have it around your neck, or knee, or wherever, having the blue side touching your skin. The blue side will not "burn" your skin for as long as u keep it on, and it still gets your joints or whatever you're tying to get cold, very cold. Then if you want more cooling, after about 15 or more minutes, it will be very flexible and you can turn it over and use the white side for additional cold.

It will depend on how cold the area is and the altitude. The best way is to just try it.

I have used mine in temperatures as low as 20 below zero (for a string of 5 days) and it functioned flawlessly. The one draw back is the battery life is somewhat reduced by the cold temps. Hope this helps.
