    How much range did you lose at -10F?

    Thats the temporary 20% range reduction I referred to.

    Where I live it isn’t unusual to have stretches of -20 for a week at a time.

    Do you have block heaters for your ICE vehicles because of that cold and parking outside?

      Nah, it’s not really an issue unless You’re around -40 or have a diesel. Or if you have an older battery.
