I guess all of those homes that use propane to heat their homes with its 20 
below zero don't exist.

Yes, it DOES matter how cold it is. 

Propane won't create gas pressure below -43.6F and many propane gas pressure 
regulators will ice up and stop working below about +20F. 

This isn't a problem for many locations but it is still important to know 
what the limits are.

I had 5120 TEGS powering 7 mountaintop sites for about 8 years before I sold 

the system. As long as there is propane, they work. No moving parts, very 
little maintenance. It doesn't matter how cold or hot it is, they just work 
. Simple power that provides heat for the radio shack as well.

Who was this from? 

Remember there is ZERO maintenance on a TEG.
