Chemical reactions happen slower at lower temperatures. Any battery will be weaker when it is cold, so laptops, cars, even flashlights have minimum operating temperatures. Batteries that are not in use have small leakage currents, which is why they gradually run down over time. Cooling the battery will slow this process down, though for modern batteries it probably does not make much difference. Depending on the type of battery, actual freezing of the electrolyte in the battery can create ice crystals or cause ice expansion that can physically damage the battery and ruin in. I would not advise sticking any battery in a deep freeze and every battery needs to be warmed up to reach full power.<a href="http://www.myislandholiday.com/holiday-inn-treasure-island.htm"> lissastrada</a> Batteries are powered by chemical reactions.

TOTAL MYTH…

It actually doesn’t help at all and does damage to the batteries…
