Every fall, I see the same panic in comments: "My vape died in the cold!" No, it didn't. Cold weather doesn't kill a disposable vape. It just slows things down.

Batteries are chemical reactions in a metal tube. When temps drop, those reactions get sluggish. So your device might hit softer or feel like it's dying when it's actually just cold. The same thing happens to your phone, by the way.

What you're experiencing is a temporary dip in performance, not permanent damage. Bring the device inside, let it warm up for a few minutes, and it'll behave like normal. The myth that cold ruins vapes probably started because people didn't wait for the device to acclimate.
