In a video by Donnie from Tech Winner, he provides comprehensive advice on maintaining Ring battery-powered devices during the winter. He addresses the impact of cold weather on lithium-ion batteries, emphasizing the importance of following Ring's guidelines to maintain battery efficiency. Key points include that at around 36 degrees Fahrenheit (3 degrees Celsius), batteries may need more frequent recharging, and at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius), they might not charge even if hardwired. At extremely low temperatures, such as negative 5 degrees Fahrenheit (negative 20.5 degrees Celsius), batteries could stop functioning entirely until warmed. He also highlights that Ring’s onboard software prevents charging in extreme temperatures to avoid damage. Donnie discusses personal experiences and invites feedback from colder regions. He concludes by encouraging viewer engagement and expressing gratitude for their support.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses how cold weather impacts the performance of Ring doorbells and their batteries. They note that colder temperatures can drain batteries faster, and while solar panels can help, they rely on sunny days to be effective. At 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius), the battery may not charge even if hardwired. More critically, at negative 5 degrees Fahrenheit (negative 20.5 degrees Celsius), the battery might stop working completely until warmed. The speaker emphasizes that in such conditions, it’s crucial to bring the device inside to warm up and charge the battery via USB. The battery should reach 100% before remounting to ensure maximum efficiency, and users should constantly monitor the charge and temperature. They also mention that if the battery is too hot or cold, the onboard software prevents charging to avoid damage, advising users to let the battery reach room temperature before recharging. The speaker shares their limited personal experience with extreme cold but asks for feedback from viewers in colder regions.
