i lived in Wyoming for a year. it would go below zero. the wind chill could go to -70. everyones equipment did just fine in trailers going from club to club. some club owners turned the heat off at closing and didnt turn it back on until mid afternoon before opening. my stuff gets the same temp as the outside temp when i'm not at home or we are not at rehersal room. some of my stuff is over 30 years old. when new stuff is shipped from the east coast to the west coast in the summer is well over 100 deg in the simi trailer. when its shipped during the winter it can get well below zero. the electronics in your trucks, vans and cars are way more fragile than pa equipment. in over 40 years of playing in have never heard of or personally experienced equipment damage from hot ,cold or hummidity. i'm from mississippi and its very hummid and i'v heard of anyone discussing this until now. pa equipment for big time arena bands goes from one temp extreme to the other and sees many years of use to eventually be sold when newer models come out. however i dont like leaving stuff in a vehicle unless i can be right by it. lots of gear gets stolen that way.
