Hi Support, has the Adafruit 2.4" Color TFT Touchscreen Breakout been tested to any very cold and hot temperatures? I would like to use it on a project that would require it to work from -10 degrees Fahrenheit to 140°F.
Thank you,
Wes

Re: Adafruit 2.4" Color TFT Touchscreen Breakout
The TFT is rated for operation between -20C and 70C (-4F to 158F). That's pretty close to the temperature range you mentioned, so it should probably work.
I'd be careful about any deviations outside that range though. They probably won't damage the display, but could easily make it unstable.

Thank you for your response! Do the non-touch screens have wider temperature parameters?

No, those limits will be related to the TFTs and their liquid crystals. Capacitive sensors don't have many thermal limits.
