I live in far northern MN (it was -32F this morning) my shop is well insulated but I only heat when I working in there (wood heat). It was 22F in the shop this morning. My batteries give the “cold temp” light when I try charge them even when as warm as 20F. So I need to bring my batteries in at night. It doesn’t take to long to warm them up if I leave them out there at night. Not sure what the magic temp is on them.
