COLD STORAGE OF LIPO BATTERIES ??
This will be my first winter to store my lipo batteries. I have discharged them all and recharged to the 50% reccomended for storage. Here's my question I do not want to store them in my house ( obvious reasons ) and every other place ( garage, shed, etc. ) is unheated. Will temps as low as -10 F hurt these batteries ? If so what do you reccomend ?

Don, I've kept mine in the garage for the last couple of years. Only time it sees heat in the winter is if I'm out there.
I keep em in one of those briefcase style safes, piece of foam approx 1/2" thick under and over them to cushion em. Not had a problem.
Bought the the safe at Wally World for something like $20.00.
