Thomas;
I can chime in on this. Return the favor for when you responded to me about
insect vibration many, many moons ago. You was in Missouri? I appreciated it.
Anyhow. I'd try some of the suggestions from others except the hand warmer
option inside a closed container. I believe it would get way too warm.
In Nov 2008 I spent a month in Ohio running sound for a 35mm movie. I'd use
one of those heat packets on top of the mixer and recorder in a cardboard box
with the from flaps open. When I wasn't, I'd close the flaps. The equipment
stayed plenty warm. I suppose the outside temps were in the 20s with snow.
And we'd be out all night long - crazy schedules. But beautiful snowfalls.
I'd always thought a hand warmer or heat stick in an insulated cooler would
work. But now, I would be cautious about too much heat if unattended. Unless
it got arctic conditions cold.
