Camping/outdoor usage and cold
Morning all. Reporting to you from a break in my camping trip, where I've had really crazy experiences with my Clara. I've had it about a year, love the thing, and at home it maintains an insane charge forever (I keep light on at 2% for reading at night in the dark).
I recently charged it to 100%, then took it camping. Temps dropped to 45 - turned it on to read (it was in my bag, in a pouch) and it was at 3%, and the time was totally off! I then read a little inside the sleeping bag, it warmed up, I turned it off and the time was back to normal... But the battery had drained.
I charged it on a portable battery, then the next night, temps were only 60 - nothing happened. The following night - temps 55 - happened again!
I've done a few cursory searches but haven't found anything really about this (apologies if I've missed it). Do people have experiences like this? Is it just mine, or this is how e-readers are (my smartphone has no such experience)? I love the e-reader for how I can bring multiple books, and as someone who will go on 7+ day camping trips, this pattern is really disturbing. Thanks for all your insights!
