I just got an Ender-3 V3 KE and am currently keeping it in my garage until I can free-up space inside. My question is how cold is too cold for the printer to be okay if not in use and powered off?

I know that temps matter if I am using it (and for the filament in general). But the little bit of searching I have done focuses on the printers being powered on and in use.

Currently the past few days have stayed above 5c due to some very warm days. Just want to not damage anything while not being used.

    Only thing I’ve ever heard of being an issue is that if it’s too cold the thermistor (I think) will throw and error and the heating bed won’t work, but nothing is broken, just might not function until in a warmer environment or using a heat gun to get the sensor above 0c or something. I don’t think you have anything to worry about for storage
