Tracking System and Shock Collars...Cold weather

I have been in the habit of taking mine inside when it gets around 30 and colder..always worried about the cold weather killing batteries. Does anyone leave them in the dogbox/ truck with no problems during the winter months?

Thats a good Idea, Cold Weather is hard on the batteries, it dosnt get too Cold around here, but I keep My Tracking System, and Collars, in the house.

I take all my collars and lights in the house year round. It makes them last much longer and they look better too from not bouncing around in the box all the time.

Everyone Knows cold weather is bad for batterys,but, hot weather is worse! In your car/truck its not so much the battery but the oil in your engine,gets cold and tuff untill warm, that takes a lot of amps to start that motor!
