Like many people on here I have my shop located in my garage. So Im curious if there are known cold temperature limits for the Redline monitor and/or the power boxes themselves? For my 1st gen I got in the habit of just taking my monitor inside if I knew it was going to get cold but there are so many chords/plugins on Gen 2 that would be a huge pain. Is it OK to leave in temps below freezing?

This is especially bad for the touchscreen. LCD screens are filled with liquid crystal which can freeze.
