Curtain strobes and extreme cold


George Simmons

Recommended Posts

I've got some of Darryl's C9 curtain strobes and I'm wondering if there's anything I need to know (other than the moisture issue) about using them in extreme cold? In central Minnesota it can be as cold as 10-20 below in December. Anyone from a similar (or colder) climate have any words of wisdom?

Thanks

I'm not from a cold area, but I have never known there to be a problem with strobes in very cold weather.

I use the previous generation of Darryl's strobes (the kind with actual 120V plugs, instead of C9 sockets) in Minnesota with no ill effects at all.

Tim,

Any issues with moisture build-up? I'm hoping that's something that only plagues our brethren in warmer climates...

I did put weep holes in mine, but I'm not sure it's necessary. I've never noticed condensation issues.
