I have two questions: 1- is this item water proof , what if I leave it out in the rain ? 2- can I charge my laptop ? duration?

I wouldn't leave it out in the rain. It won't do you any good any way. Hard to say about laptop. Depends on the laptop.

I think it is ok for normal weather. If there is light rain then cover with a umbrella, and don't plug the power. It came with rechargeable battery for the LED light, so charge it at night if needed. The table surface is waterproof.

I just tested it by pouring a little bit water on it from my kitchen sink. The water flowed across it. Nevertheless, I don't consider this bag waterproof. If water spills on it accidentally, and u wipe it off quick, your laptop will be safe... I think there's vulnerability around the zipper. But I gotta say this: "It is a solid bag". I love mine

I would consider this to be as weatherproof as any electronic device. It might tolerate a small amount of moisture and maybe even a downpour for a short period if you quickly dry it off. It is not submersible.

Never tested it in any inclement weather, but it would be safe to say rain isn't a good idea. Would be ok if it got a few drop on it I'm sure. Build quality was pretty good. It just didn't charge with the solar panel.

First off I do not know the conditions of the environment in which you intend on using your cord in. I would not recommend using the cord while its raining and I would not recommend using the cord if the cord is going to be submerged under any length of water. However if it had just stopped raining or if it's early in the morning dew on the ground it should be fine as long as the cord is in good condition and you're using good judgement. Extend the cord between the two points first and then plug it in. Make sure before you put the cord away that you unplug it from the source of electricity first.

I don't think its submergible water proof but I sweat in mine when I do yard work and I have had it on while walking in the rain to the store ,I would suggest that you keep it as dry as possible though because with electronics you never know!

No, it not waterproof. Yes it can be used outside, just don't get it wet! I use mine all the time outside!! Yeah, electronics and water don't mix too well.

It's generally not safe to ride in the rain. So while I'm happy to respond - my experience is limited. I have been caught in the rain, with the light, and it worked perfectly. It's important to note that I was too aggressive with the rubber USB cover the second or third time I charged the light... and it popped off. My plan was to replace it - but I've been just too busy to get to that "C" list item. In spite of the exposed USB, the light re-charged flawlessly. This is a good value - several friends purchased the same light based on my experience and first hand observations. The charge lasts a long time and the unit is powerful, but not bulky. Good luck and be safe out there.

It is not water-proof. I sheds water fairly well though. In my experience, unless you fork out the money for a true dry-bag, backpacks are never waterproof after about 30 minutes in the rain.

I think that the unit is water resistant which is NOT waterproof. The light is recharged via a USB slot and therefore prone to some possible water seepage. There is a rubber insert that slots into the USB port but that can be dislodged if not inserted carefully and therefore could expose the unit to possible water leakage.

I havent had a chance to use it when it has been raining or tried soaking it in water :-). But it looks to be waterproof or water resistant though.... If it has some issues i will post it up here on that...

It is not water proof. With that being said, I have only experienced a light rain when riding out here in southern California. I left it on and did well. And I do mean a very light rain of about 3 minutes. If rained harder I would have taken it off. I would not use it in a rain storm. Also, looking at the manufacturer specs, it does not mention anything about it being water proof.

I recently bought this and have it in a windowsill and skylight, it charger to full battery in 2 days that way and its been VERY rainy outside. 😊

Based on my experience it will be OK for a while in normal rain, but really would not keep everything dry if exposed to water for long periods of time. The good thing is that the laptop is in a separate case that will add another layer of protection. But if you are looking for 100% rugged take anywhere type of case this is not it.

I have had it in the rain by accident (middle of the night and a storm came in while I was sleeping) it was fine. I wouldn't recommend leaving it in the rain on purpose, it is electric after all.

I doubt it. But I have to say, mine has been rained on and it lived. (it wasn't immersed in water, but it did get wet.) I would tend to think that since it's an electrical device, it's not particularly water resistant.
