yes, the number printed at the intersection is the freezing point at that state of charge.

I stored my bus in Anchorage this winter (and flew home). I checked with several storage facilities but none had the option of electricity for a charger.
So, I disconnected all the batteries and am hoping for the best. I will say I saw many RV's stored there. (They will give me a jump they say when I pick her up).

The guy commented that some people take their batteries home with them (who live local). Wish I had a better option...

I put a solar battery maintainer on mine when I parked it for long periods.
