minus-squareBonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI’m so curious why batteries.
minus-squareiAvicenna@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI think my moms logic on that is that batteries running out in time is a chemical reaction so cold should slow that down?

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.
