Have these been used in Northern Minn where temps go below negative 40F??

I live in Milwaukee and the temps dropped to - 20 last winter and any water in the pipe freezes. It can freeze solid if enough water is in the pipe.

Well, a lot of them. i had mine go out (as ecotemp said) and i don't think it got below 38f. if you do have a problem with yours im sure they will say it's because you let it freeze. thats what all their complaints are about it seems. and their customer service is non existent, they just said it was all my fault then (get this) he hung up on me. i never raised my voice (but he did) i tried to call back and they would not pick up my call. i will never even think about using them again. good luck!

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

I used them a week ago, November 14, 2013 near San Francisco. The temperature in the 60s during the day. They worked great.

I live in Vermont... It's cold here... last winter we were frequently in the -15°F range... These operate on watch batteries - 2nd winter running and I haven't changed them yet. My only suggestion is be careful mounting them with screws, if it's cold and you over-tighten the screw you crack the mounting plate.

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.

I have used these - and others from Radio Shack - with about equal runtime results in freezer circulating fans. None are very long-lived at cold/subzero temperatures.

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

To be honest, I do not know. However, we have used them on cold aluminum bleachers and do not feel the cold or dampness at all.

Yes, but I wouldn't recommend - they freeze in winter conditions. Weather Tech better choice, IMHO.

That I am not sure of. We live in Iowa and temps get up to 100. We have them in a kennel were it usually does not get above 90 and they do fine. I would suggest trying to contact the seller and ask them personally on this one.

Good question. We live in Minnesota. So far our temps have not gotten below freezing. However, the plunger is very "loose" -- it is not a tight fit like if it were screwed in.

no, illinoians did. It worked well despite the sub zero change in temperature

We have had this unit on back porch in middle Georgia since late February. There have been perhaps 10 nights where the temperature dropped below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. We have recognized no problems but we have had few occasions when callers were at the door during the hours of such coldness.

I live in Thunder Bay, and we had many weeks of near -40 below temperatures. Remarkably, these units work. I am exceedingly happy with the units I have purchased. I have owned them for more than one year now, and while I changed out the batteries, I fully expect another great year.

These bags are rated to 45 degrees F. I wouldn't expect them to replace a zero degree bag. Live To Play

I'm not sure..they worked fine above freezing but the colder it got the worse they got.
