how does the battery hold up in cold temperatures?

Amazingly well, overall its a hidden gem. My daughter swam from Alcatraz to San Francisco, she had to prep herself from 7 a.m. She did not start awimming until 9 a.m. and she had it on and off the whole time...and swam with it on..great videos in cold cold water 50 degrees.

I used in a cold environment. The batteries were changed every two days. We did not try to go longer, so I do not know if batteries would last for four days. I am sorry.

Well sealed and no moisture issues. Warm early season, so I can't help on cold issue. Although battery life maybe an issue in extreme cold

Mine works great on my opener. Plenty of voltage for a lawn mower battery. I couldn't be happier. I have had it for about a year now. I can't say for sure on cold weather but I don't see where temps above 0 would matter much.

I cannot say for temps under 35 degrees. I also keep the batteries in the back of a vehicle. I have never had an issue.

So funny.. i just replaced the batteries last night. AA batteries, it was easy to replace, there are some small screws. The batteries lasted over a year, but it is having some trouble in the cold weather. It is in the negatives here in NY and the outside temp is not reading.

We bring it in every time, but it would be fine in the cold if you remove the battery. It isn't good for in the snow, but works fine if parking lots have been plowed well.

Not yet. I would think it to be fine because it's cold at high altitudes. It's only high heat environments that I would be really concerned. Same battery material as iPhone and iPad.

Being in NYS, this camera just survived Sandy's furry and lived with no issues. so i can attest to its water resistance. As for battery life in cold temps, unless you find a game camera that is insulated, or figure out a way to rig it up yourself, theyre all going to be about the same. that's not really up to the camera. more up to the batteries that you use in it.

I have never had a problem with it working when its cold and it does get hot.

Agree with Wayne and Brett. I've used mine for years in warn and cold weather. Works great to keep the battery topped up.

Can't speak for MI as I live in CO but it gets pretty cold here and batteries seem to last about 3-4 months in winter and longer in other quarters so I end up changing them twice a year on average.

As any other battery, in temps around freezing, there output will be weaker. But Li-ion batteries do perform better than others (NiCd, NiMH), in cold conditions. Charging is a different story! Don't charge them in or near freezing conditions, that might cause battery damage (others have reported this). You should charge them at home and bring the charged batteries with you to work. Me personally, I never let my batteries sit in freezing conditions, for extended periods of time. So in the Winter time, you should bring in all of your batteries, to the warmth of your home, every night, and then charge the ones that need charging, inside, to avoid any possible damage.Thats the best I can do, hope it helps.

We had a mild winter here in NW Wisconsin, but my camera worked fine. We were down to 0 degrees with no problems and the same batteries were in it all winter.

Im in MA. I store my batteries in an unheated garage for several years since ive bought it....no issues thus far. But i agree that they are so small....so if you are worried, just bring them into the house when it gets really cold.

This is my second winter using it and I love the thing. As far as I'm concerned it was worth the price. I haven't had any issues with mine.

It will wear down the battery if left in all the time. Wenleave ours plugged in while traveling, and unplug it overnight. It stays cold.
