Baby, It’s Cold … Inside

March 5, 2025 |
How Cold Weather Affects Mobile Devices – And How to Prevent Costly Failures Cold environments pose a significant challenge to mobile devices, yet many businesses operating in these conditions don’t realize the full extent of the risks until their technology fails. Whether you manage a cold storage warehouse, oversee last-mile delivery in freezing temperatures, or operate in outdoor field environments, the impact of extreme cold on your devices can lead to costly downtime, data loss, and operational inefficiencies.   Battery Performance in Cold Environments At the core of every mobile device is a lithium-ion battery, a power source highly susceptible to temperature fluctuations. As temperatures drop, the electrochemical reactions inside the battery slow down, reducing efficiency and causing several critical failures. The most common are decreased battery capacity, slower or no charging, and permanent degradation of your power source. Lithium-ion cells deliver power by moving lithium ions between the anode
