Does this work well in cold temperatures?

I have it in my garage area, it gets into the 30s and it works fine. The only issue I have is the plugs get loose. I use a clip to keep the plugs in.

It hangs in my unheated, but insulated garage in a north central state. It is used more occasionally than regularly, but has been used in all seasons and operates satisfactorily. No problems with its operation.

I'm in MN. We have been down to +5 so far this year and it is fine. Mostly made of metal vs. plastic, so I do not expect problems

This works well in a climate & humidity controlled room, not sure about cold temperatures. It is a GREAT product and serves it's purpose well. Wish I knew about cold temps! Sorry!

Works nj my garage down to the 30sF. I also have the issue with loose plugs.

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

I don't recall reading any prohibition about cold weather. I keep mine in an unheated shop and pulled it out the other day when it was well below freezing. It worked like a champ.

Yes, it operates at very low temperatures and has a defrost cycle, which is why I purchased it. It has survived temperatures as low as 8 °F.

I have never had a problem with it working when its cold and it does get hot.

I don't anticipate a problem with cold temperatures. However, we never got to try it in the winter--because our 95 lb rescue dog pulled this from the ground. Not one, but two! So use with caution

Mine works great on my opener. Plenty of voltage for a lawn mower battery. I couldn't be happier. I have had it for about a year now. I can't say for sure on cold weather but I don't see where temps above 0 would matter much.

So far I haven't had an issue with the cold. I like in northern North Dakota and it's worked great so far. Battery life is a bit shorter but I get the rechargeable batteries

I think it works pretty well (I have no idea where to point the instrument in animals ....). But I don´t know if a very low outside temperature make an error in the meassure

Haven't tried it in the REALLY cold weather. Didn't seem to fog at 25-30 degrees.

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

I used it when it was about 50 degrees out and it worked well. I also used it when it was 40 degrees, but 40 was too cold and unless you were sitting right next to it, it did not keep you warm.

It definitely works during warm weather, and I think it would work anytime if the solution you're using isn't too watered down, that it would freeze as soon as it hits the air. Great little machine!!

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.

It works great, however, if the outside air temp is below 10-15 degrees fahrenheit or so, the unit will not work. So, when it's really, really cold out, for some reason the system has a safety mechanism that prevents it from working. Sounds crazy, but true. Once the day warms up enough, it kicks back on.

I live in Indiana so we have had some cold weather however I have not been through a winter with it. It seems to work well all the time. I like to use the cover that comes with it that keeps the unit clean and from getting soaked. Hope this helps. Thank you
