I hunt in extremely cold climates. Will the Silencer freeze up?

Silencer Frequently Asked Questions
This is one concern Ellington & Rush had while developing the Silencer. Human breath contains moisture in the form of vapor, and when this vapor makes contact with a cooler object it condenses and forms a liquid. (This can be observed when you breathe on your sunglass lenses to clean them.) The same thing happens when a cough goes through a cough device. To avoid liquid buildup two cotton balls were added to the Silencer's baffle system.

How about chips and cold climates?

Radiant Barrier Questions and Answers
Radiant Barrier Chips work as well in cold climates as it does in hot climates. Much like a Thermos bottle, the reflective coating on the RBS film reflects interior heat back into the room. Our testing has shown ceiling temperatures increase 8f to 10f degrees where the chips are installed. In new homes, radiant barrier can be installed in sheet form, just behind the drywall thus becoming a vapor barrier and a radiant barrier.

If cold fusion cells are at least in part nuclear, why aren't they extremely hot?

New Energy FAQ
Many people think that because nuclear reactions can produce gigantic amounts of energy- such as in exploding thermonuclear weapons— that means nuclear reactions must be very hot, like the inside of the Sun. This is incorrect. An impure sample of radium that is radioactively decaying, or some uranium compound that is undergoing fission of its uranium atoms might be cold to the touch, or barely warm-depending on the conditions. These samples can produce dangerous ionizing radiation.

What about working with vacuum splints in extremely cold or very hot weather?
