Do you think it's because of the cold or are my batteries starting to die? It's going to warm back up in a couple days and I can check then, but I figured you all are in colder climes than me.

What is your voltage range?



And when I say it drops to 18V, I mean just for a microsecond. It starts to recover as soon as I let off the gas.


How long is the pull? And I imagine it's the temperature.
