put the laptop in a cardboard box, I have a nice insulated one, and yes, that works great.

It generates its own heat, just give it a some insulation.

It's brilliantly clear (YAY!) but below zero (Wahh!). I hope my laptop doesn't freeze up on me. Wish me luck.
Testing continues primarily to see where and if the normal temp encoders will fail to operate in sub-zero conditions. So far they work fine but we have not seen -20F yet. Maybe Sunday night - Monday morning. Coldest it's ever been in Northern
Illinois is -32F, but haven't seen that in the last 10 years.
