“Extreme temps, hot or cold have a negative impact on batteries.”
And that is why you do not store your small appliance batteries in the freezer!
I’m shocked when I find some people who think the place to store AA, AAA
and 9V batteries is in the freezer! I don’t know where this theory came from but many believe it to be true!

Others put them in the refer. The concern is self-discharge. As it is, just buy the Everready Lithium batteries (in those same above sizes) and they’ll last 20 years before self-discharging, and that’s at room temperatures. And they’ll never leak either.

(and no, I don’t have their stock, but maybe I should)
