I spent a bit of time at an artic base that averages around -30 so -39 sounds a bit off.
It really has been that cold in the northern central states this year


Climate change - were at a severe solar minimum the last decade or so.


I have to admit that I sometimes really need to consider other people's situation in threads like this. I've only lived in Seattle, Texas, California and Kentucky. Any batter works just fine in those areas. That's why my OEM batteries last a decade. But there are people who live in insanely cold parts of the country. Battery quality is an issue and it matters bigly.


It's also why I'll never buy a used car from the rust belt. (rust)
