Is this lamp rated for wet conditions?

Good morning, S.W. Yes, this lamp can handle wet conditions. However, I would suggest bringing the lamp inside during the winter months. I hope you find this information helpful. Adreanna, Plow & Hearth Customer Service

If it is a covered porch that is not exposed to water it should be fine. That is where I have placed my lamp, on a table on the covered porch. I have had it there for quite some time and it has been fine.

No, it is neither damp rated nor wet rated. Technically I should not be using it for my screen enclosed patio but I liked the design.

Yes it is damp rated. I'm not sure about wet-rated, but from the way it was constructed with rubber covers in critical areas, I think it might be. I can't see how water could get to it.

I cannot answer as to whether the light is waterproof or not but I do not hesitate to use it in wet conditions. There is an o-ring between the battery and bulb sections which seems to keep moisture out of the light.

The lamps are not specifically rated for outdoor use, but I have 2 of them in the ceiling outside my front door and don't expect any problems there. My opinion is that they will be fine as long as they are not getting rain-drenched. I plan to put them in my exterior flood fixtures that are kind of funnel shaped and the bulbs fit well inside them.

I live in FL and the lamp hasn't had any problems. We had enough rain in the year to end all drought conditions. The dawn to dusk setting still works perfect. And the light still adjusts with motion detector setting too.

The lamp was bought for my daughter, but she has not mentioned anything like that. She seems to keep it on most of the time also. I actually looked at it yesterday while there and I did not notice any water underneath it.

NO WAY!! it may be "Water resistance" for Rain at best. The claim of 1600 Lumen is also totally False.

this lamp is intended to be used indoors in my opinion when exposed to the elements it may rust or if it gets wet it may break I wouldn't use it outdoors

Any indication that this fixture is suitable for wet locations would be a mistake. The unit is only for dry locations.

I do not know. It is advertised as waterproof for camping etc. I purchased mine strictly for a strong indoor light (which it has) in case of power outage.

It appears to be safe enough to use as a night light in a bathroom. I would not get it wet by submersion. But it should be fine in high humidity. The box states to use it only exposed outlets where device is well ventilated and cannot contact bed coverings or other material. Don't use with extension cords.

It looks very well sealed to my eyes - there's an o-ring sealing the battery enclosure, for example. I don't think you'd want to fully immerse it, but I think it would handle rainy weather. It's a great little lantern - and it's small - nice light, warmer color temperature than most LEDs and well made.

No. It is neither water or weather-proof. The light is portable with a self-adhering clip. I wouldn't even recommend using the light while in the company of rain or bad weather. Again, it is NOT water or weather-proof. Good Luck :)

I know it's water resistant; not sure of water proof, which I would imagine would allow it to be immersed in H2O. Best light I own, and have had it for years! Worth the price.

I suspect not, since if it were, it would likely be marketed as such. However it appears well sealed and is likely water "resistant," whatever that means. I have been very pleased with this light.
