Most LCD/LED/Plasma TV owner's manuals recommend allowing them to stabilize at room temperature before applying power. We store our Cougar in the pole barn (unheated) and the TV's get as cold as the rest of the trailer (this morning was 4F, today is expected to "top 29F" so our TV's are subjected to some fairly cool temps, and have never had any damage. . Same with the Springdale. We just don't apply power until they have had a day or two of "comfortable spring temps". If we do decide to use the trailer for a "winter trip south", I unplug the TV's as a part of getting the trailer ready, that way when we do plug in shore power, we don't power up the TV's. I plug them in once we reach our destination and the trailer has been heated for 24 hours or so. We've never had a "TV problem" with our LCD/LED TV's doing it this way.
