    It would be winterized for sure if I live in colder country like you two Wolfie and 24 Sleek. But I live in So Cal like HB, Wendi and Barry,where we dont normally have to give it a second thought. It's 7:30 on Friday evening and we're already down to 42*. I'm in the foothills in Northern San Diego county at about 2300' elevation, soa little colder than the valleys but like Wendi said 29* Thats down right chilly. Hell I almost didn't wear shorts today. Did put shoes on instead of flip flops.

    I was on the phone a bit ago talking with one of my Parker friends about the same topic,, maybe try a lightbulb/droplight under the cover, placed so that it can't melt anything? You are probably only talking about keeping a couple of extra degrees of temperature.

    Anybody make a remote thermometer app for smart phones????

    Just a note! The drop light can't have a cfl, or led bulb in it, in case you have upgraded to such as they generate zero heat. A good old 100Watt incandescent bulb will usually do the trick if you have a cover to catch the warmth.

    Yup, up here in the miserable north, many without garages just tarp it up and throw a light in there. BUT, one friend had a bulb burn out and cause trouble with a cracked block. So, Ron go for it but keep an eye on the bulb. You should be fine
