Question for those in non-tropical climates

The temperatures on that stuff won't change fast enough so long as it never gets wet.  It's when you turn the game on from a frozen state that the operating heat causes issues.  The thing you want to avoid is rapid temperature change.

Yeah, if you're going to play in a cold garage, it's a good idea to put a space heater in there to get the room temp up a bit and well-maintained for a while before flipping any switches. It's not only a bit more comfortable for you, but way safer for your games.

Don't do that for anything with silkscreening on glass.  You'll delaminate it.  Probably also dangerous for silkscreening on plexi but less so.

Are you talking about the space heater? It would be fine if you didn't set it near any cabinets and it just heated up the room enough to take the bite out of the air. It would be much like heating it up any other way as long as you don't set the heater to where it's directly heating the surface of any machines.
