Storing Electronics in Attic.. question

[LarryS]

Would it be a problem to store a television and a DVD player in my attic? It gets pretty hot up there in the summertime.. could this affect the units?

Thanks.

I don't *think* this will be much of a problem at all, but I could easily be wrong.

Prolly won't hurt it, but extreme temp variatons make things shrink/swell. Not good for circuit boards in my opinion.

at least wrap em in air tight trash bags to keep dust and moisture away

Nah. No big deal. Just make sure it's properly packed for storage.

Only if you want to use them again for watching a movie

Define "hot" around here, an uncooled crawlspace might reach into the 130s...that might be a problem. If we're talking 90's tops, youre probably fine....

Temps around here hover around 85-90 in the summertime (South Jersey). The attic does have a fan.
