Will the SVB500 operate in very cold northern climates? Minus 5 degrees?

You would probably need to contact the mfr on that question. I don't think the release would be a problem at that temp but the fingerprint scanner might.

I returned this item. You have to swipe your finger across the reader and it only worked with me 1 in 20 times.... I recommend the GV1000 or GV2000. With the GV you lay your hand on reader, press button with your finger to activate scan, and leave your hand in place. I have not had any problems with GV (have 3).

Mine is used in California, where we might see 28 degrees on rare occasions. I would think your only concern would be the operation of the 9 volt battery, as long as the rest of the unit is kept dry and indoors. You would need to find a website for your battery to check their specifications.

Not sure and there's nothing in the manual addressing temperature ranges for use. My guess, since this unit operates from a battery, it may not perform as well in very cold temperatures. I would also be concerned about frost jamming the mechanism. There's a technical support number you can call, 800-222-1055. Good luck.

You know I think it probably would but you gotta get your finger across the reader just perfect or else it won't open. And if your fingers are drawing up because of the cold it may not read them. I love the idea of a biometric lock to keep the kids out. But honestly It kinda scares me to think my wife may need a firearm and can't get to it because the reader doesn't want to cooperate. If it were me I would buy the model with the code to enter to open. But that's just me. Granted kids could potentially get into that model if not careful but. After I installed this one the reader didn't wanna cooperate for a few hours and I was starting to wonder how I was gonna get my gun out to return it. Haha but it started working again and has only given me trouble a few times since. I don't know if that helps your decision but figured I'd tell ya my experience.

I have used it below 50 and it was fine - below 30 would be freezing - so no for that

As far as i know it doesn't matter how cold it gets. Mine worked great in the lower teens.

Yes. I've had my sensor outside year round, from 90+ to -25. In extreme cold I've noticed a problem that it changes from degrees F to degrees C but other than that the sensor works great.

Please disregard my "yes" answer! I hit the wrong button on accident. I am not sure if it will run in cold weather&#128561;.

Thank God I live in a place where I can't answer that. But as an electrician I really can't imagine that the cold would affect it. It does seem to work well so far, and my only complaint is that is it very loud. I mean really loud. Good luck. David

I have one in the garage and it works great out there. In Michigan we have very cold weather.

Cynthia, I honestly don't know. Temperatures here can reach well below zero and I haven't had any issues with real cold temps. My guess if water did get on the compressor and found a way into the compressor itself, cold temps may have frozen and expanded some components causing it to fail. Similiar to a cracked engine block of a motor boat that wasn't winterized properly. Again, only a guess as my unit thankfully continues to operate without issues.

Mine works great on my opener. Plenty of voltage for a lawn mower battery. I couldn't be happier. I have had it for about a year now. I can't say for sure on cold weather but I don't see where temps above 0 would matter much.

I do not live in a climate that gets that cold and cannot tell you how it will perform at that temp range.

Down into the freezing area, you'll be fine. Even short periods of sub freezing if it's covered. It will run most of the time but stay 104. Below zero? I doubt it.

SPEC'S: Avoid temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 60°C (140°F).However, I tried it in my great cold City of Chicago last week when it was below 0, and it worked......barely.

Temperature shouldn't have any effect on the operation - mine is exposed to freezing / thawing/freezing/thawing with no issues. I would be more concerned about whether or not the winter light conditions in AK are going to be sufficient to power the batteries.

The coldest temp I used it in was about 25 degrees. It worked just fine. I highly recommend it.

I live in Arizona where it reaches above 110 outside, and I havn't had any problems with these speakers. As far as extreme cold, that I really can't help you with.

The temp setting will go down to freezing, so 50 degrees should be no problem.

I have not used them in an area colder than 50F, but being an LED light, these should work fine well below zero.
