Batteries and Heat
Hi Doc: It's suddenly summer and I've noticed in the last few days, just as the weather was heating up, that my Blackberry isn't holding a charge the way it used to. Do hotter temps impact battery life? - Anonymous
Anon: Hi to you too. The quick answer to your question is: Yes, heat does affect batteries. For a good discussion of heat and battery life, click here .
If you would like addition references, there are others in this search and this one.
Finally, don't overlook the fact that your battery may be getting bad. Have it checked.
