Minimum/Maximum temperature

Just out of curiosity:
do the PM's have a minimum / maximum operating temperature? I go the the mountains (near freezing) or out to the desert (110 degrees) often and I didn't want to "freak out" my new found friend. Also, regarding ARC welding: I can see the concern with 220 volts machines, but what about MIG welders with standard 110 volts? same concerns? or not?

I don't think the outside temp makes a difference

I would think that outside temp has little to do with a device planted under our skin. The generator would have to be at about 98.6 + or - a degree or 2.

Go down the list about ten posts for one called "Precautions" by ddove. He askes abut them & there are several definitive answers.

I agree with KathyKat11

I have been in a hot tub at about 110 degrees & outside temp at -30 degrees (F) & no problems. Altho I like the hot tub better than the -30.

I wasn't really self-conscious about it. I didn't even know I had one until around six or seven years old. I just thought I had a rock in my side.
