I have an outdoor thermometer that had been working for about 4.5 years before the battery finally died. I replaced it, and after a few days we had some colder weather that seems to have killed the battery, as the sensor is no longer transmitting the temperature. Do different types of batteries (or battery chemistry) work better in the cold than others?

Look for lithium AA batteries, rather than the typical alkaline batteries. The lithium ones cost a bit more, but they can withstand much-colder temps than alkalines.
