Over all the leaf is doing better than I thought it would but the cold is a lot worse than what I thought it would be. And it hasn't even really gotten cold here yet. __________________ 1984 chevy suburban, custom made 6.5L diesel turbocharged with a Garrett T76 and Holset HE351VE, 22:1 compression 13psi of intercooled boost. 1989 firebird mostly stock.

I am not using heat. __________________ casual notes from the underground:There are some "experts" out there that in reality don't have a clue as to what they are doing.

Lithium batteries really suffer in the cold. I have been using them since 2010. __________________ 1984 chevy suburban, custom made 6.5L diesel turbocharged with a Garrett T76 and Holset HE351VE, 22:1 compression 13psi of intercooled boost. 1989 firebird mostly stock.
