TS,
One more question, If it were damaged. How would I know.
Complete failure, or slow recycle or inconsistent operation?
It's good for me to know all this and will relay the cautions to the places I teach,
Ai Minnesota College and the Minneapolis Photo Center.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful replies, I appreciate it!

Will this have a permanent effect on the electrolytic material?
Once damaged, it would be permanent. However, it is no secret people use our lights in extreme
cold environments without problems. Our lights, though, were not specifically engineered for
cold weather, so we cannot make guarantees or recommendations to use them in such.
For what it is worth, I would bet the operating range of your camera is listed no lower than 0C or 32F on the low end. I have not found a spec on some of the "other" lights, but I would suspect similar ratings. Personally, even if I would be 100% on the hook, if I was willing to risk a $1000+ camera ($350+ repair), I would risk a $400 or less ($100 or less repair) light.
