I'm interested to see how they work through the winter. I think -20 C is about the coldest they should be able to handle. I've been able to keep the air inside the box at 15-30 deg C warmer than ambient air, depending on what phase of composting is going on. The core is much hotter at that point, it can easily climb to 50 C higher than the outside temps.
With the C:N ratios, I think the recommendations are about 25-30:1, so the 2:1 mix of browns to greens would probably be quite okay. Somewhere in the first 10 pages of the thread I think I've posted some links to some tables of the C:N ratios of different things, taking a look at them will give an idea of what you're working with.
