Capacity. However, when one is exposed to cold temperatures
{below 10°C/S0°F}, its usage time becomes shorter and i t may
cease to function. If this happens, place the battery pack in
your pocket or other warm, protected place for a short time,

itself is not cold, it should not affect performance.

not come in direct contact with it.)
