Cold weather definitely impacts battery life. Think about how much harder it is to start the car on cold days, and how the battery doesn't seem to have the umph it did when it was warmer. It's cold down here too, I think it's 28 degrees Fahrenheit right now, brrrr (hahahahaha)

So there I am, in the basement, wearing my four pair o' corduroys, dinking around on the wind trainer. I have my Mac set up on a stand in front of the bike to watch whatever trash Netflix has heaved my way recently. I've been getting about 70-75 minutes of DVD playing time. Today it bailed on me at 65 minutes. The only difference (battery was fully charged from last night) is that it's about 15F in the basement this morning, up from it's normal 27 or 28. (Outside it's 12 below, F. All Milwaukee schools were closed. The wimps.) _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
