minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•5 months agoCold can allow the internal resistance of a battery to drop, so if it’s cold when it’s in use, I’ll discharge more quickly. Storage, meh. Not sure if there’s an effect. Some people think so, but I’m not sure if there’s any scientific basis for it.
