Plannings on doing a 4 day 3 night backpacking trip in Yosemite later this month. Temperature range could be anywhere from 10F at night perhaps down to 5 at worst case and 50s during the day.

I've been reading about temperature ranges of storage down to 15F and operation at 32F and up. It's the latest generation Paperwhite. I would put it in my sleeping bag at night. But would also like to read it at night before going to sleep.

1) am I at risk of permanently damaging my Kindle doing this ?
2) would I need to take any precautions other than having it in a case and in my bag at night?
3) could I read outside my bag at night if it were below freezing or should huddle it into the bag at night and read it there ?
4) any warning signs to look out for ? I.e. slow refresh time on page turns etc.

Thanks in advance!!

PS: unrelated but should I try to keep my Kindle charged up or wait till it completely discharges to charge it again in terms of optimizing the battery life
