How hard is it to start in sub zero weather?

I have not had to use the generator since I installed it last year. The main issue is keeping the battery fully charged so that it is ready when you need it. I keep a small trickle charger on the battery and I store the unit in my garage where it does not get much below 25F. I also start it every month or so.

Probably not, mine die this winter and I live in N.C., weather here HSS only been around low 30's.

Not that we know of. We live in NC, so we don't get below zero temps. But, it worked perfectly when we were down to 10 degrees.

I would think that would not be problem during the warm weather. But if you are in a cold area where it could freeze it would be a problem. I would check with the factory. Richard

Yes ot will. I just came back from a ski vacation and it was -10 c and it was ok

I live in Fla., so I apply this year 'round. As long as it is not freezing, I don't think you should have a problem.

Last winter I camped for 1 week in the Coronado mountains in Arizona, when temperature dipped to less than 10deg F. I could just manage. So 20deg F should be no problem.

Yes. It's not exactly tubed for it but you should be able to here your local NOA weather just fine unless it's really a long way off.

We got to +15 here once and thought we were going to freeze to death! Anyway, I have not tried them that cold, I suspect they'll work just fine since most electronic things like that are good down to -40. We used to live in Edmonton, AB, it hit -47 (without windchill) once, we decided to move.

Hi Katie,I don't think you're supposed to. Depends on your climate. I have two outside but one on a porch and one way under the eves on the house. Haven't had any problems. But..not winter here yet. At 20 below zero F, that's going to be tough. 90% is keeping them dry and out of direct sunlight. Keep them powered all the time in the winter (that's the plan) because they will generate a little heat. If the wind's not too bad they might survive.

I've used this for 2 years now in Denver on the same set of batteries. We certainly don't have the same level of cold that Alaska does, but we have our share of cold days, and I've never had a problem with this even on sub-zero days.

I have not had in sub freezing but down to about 25 deg. In the rain with all 3 and no problem. Ron

I would say around 40-30degrees at coldest and expect come DOA. A lot of it depends on your night temperatures. Also keep in mind that many sellers void their live arrival grantee (normally in fine print) if temps any ware along the shipping route drop below a certain temp. I lost a shipment of 1000 crickets due to this and am currently out of $45 because the voided grantee (Note: This transaction was not from this seller.). Due to the chill factor throughout the whole North Eastern America if you are any ware near there you might want to wait until spring.

I have not used them in an area colder than 50F, but being an LED light, these should work fine well below zero.

I'm from Colorado and so I'm kinda use to cold. But I would have to say no...-5 yes...hope this helped.

Have not experienced much weather as of late below about 25 F so it hard for me to comment.

SPEC'S: Avoid temperatures below -10C (14F) or above 60C (140F). However, I tried it in my great cold City of Chicago last week when it was below 0, and it worked......barely.
