I haven't shot in really cold since going digital but you might get a new battery or 3. Got really cold for here earlier this year and 21-23° F didn't cause any battery problems but I had a good battery, I'm sure it didnt last as long though. My old BP-511's, probably over a decade old, doubt they'd have done too much although they're fine now in 80-90+°
Some of the places having auroras can be a lot colder than 14°F if you don't mind me asking I'd be curious what your destination is.
Not a bad idea to be careful going from cold outside to inside.
I'm looking at the possibility of going to Iceland. If that doesn't pan out, then maybe Alaska.
The ocean tends to really buffer the temperature. I’ve read Anchorage really isn't that cold, it's next to the ocean, Fairbanks look out.
You should be able to go in September and October having enough darkness and shouldn't be too terribly cold. Even south of the Artic circle it doesn't necessarily get dark in summer up there autumn solstice is pretty much sundown around 6 pm afaik
