That's what I'm wondering about. Admittedly the car started out cold (43 def F) this morning, so the batteries had less power available. That's one reason I'm looking seriously into either rigging up some battery heaters to use at night, or possibly just a small heated garage. The garage would be a lot more convenient, since I currently keep the Sparrow in my shop that's about 300' from the house. -- John G.
