Thread: Freezing Temps.

    I think a simple start would be some errrr lagging or thermal insulation material. This may at least help to stop the freezing. I live in a warm climate so I dont really know what temperatures we are talking about here but when I lived in England the truck drivers used lagging over the engines at night! Just a thought....

    were not talking antarctic temps. here but in the middle of winter around -10 or so....cold enough to freeze a quart of water in a jar without any protection. i'm leaning twards some sort of heat wrap on a temp sensor to keep it just above freezing along with alcohol in the electrolyte mix

    Inside!

    Put it in the car! I mean inside the car.Wrapped in a blanket. Mine is detachable, can be taken off in a flash. Is yours too fixed to do that? If so, try just wrapping it in an old blanket under the bonnet! All the best......isnt it summer for you at the moment?

    20 percent denatured alcohol by volume is what I've read as the recommended method of freeze prevention on several other sites.

    Guess it's time for some of us to actually test it. Both freezing point and gas production are going to be interesting.
