[QUOTE="AlexB23, post: 77655128, member: 450900"] Storing a Bluetooth keyboard in a car's glovebox in weather extremes could potentially cause some damage to the keyboard over time. It is best to store the keyboard inside the home instead. Reasons to avoid in-car storage of keyboard: 1. Temperature: Extreme temperatures can affect the internal components of the keyboard, especially batteries if it's a wireless one. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can cause the batteries to swell or leak, leading to malfunctions. On the other hand, extremely low temperatures can cause the batteries to drain faster and may make it difficult for the keyboard to function properly. 2. Humidity: A glovebox can be a moist environment, especially in hot and humid weather or during heavy rain. Moisture can seep into the keyboard and damage its internal components, causing corrosion or sticky keys. 3. Shakes: Cars experience a lot of shaking from the engine, bumps in the road, and other sources. This can potentially damage the delicate internal components of the keyboard over time. However, many Bluetooth keyboards are designed to be portable (such as your Logitech, good brand by the way) and can withstand some temperature, shakes and humidity fluctuations. If you plan on storing a keyboard in your car's glovebox, consider investing in a protective case to shield it from extreme temperatures and moisture. Additionally, try to keep the temperature inside the glovebox as consistent as possible by avoiding prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight by [B]parking your car in the garage[/B]. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide whether the potential risks of storing a Bluetooth keyboard in your car's glovebox outweigh the convenience. If you use it frequently, it might be better to keep it with you in a backpack or store it in a more temperature-controlled environment when not in use. [/QUOTE]
