How water safe are these lights?

I leave mine up all year in rain and snow and have no problems. I also purchased the connector cover.

WE had them out in the very rainy Denver summer and so far so good (except for some hail wiping out a few!). Order an extra box of replacement lights b/c several lights in the kit will be broken when they arrive.

It has rained since we have installed these but not a heavy rain. But so far, they are fine. They are very heavy duty. I think they will be water safe.

We used them outside at the beach for a week. The misty air did not seem to negatively impact them. The cord and sockets are very heavy duty plastic.

They have been fine at my house. We put them up Sept 2014 and they still look great and light is the same. They are pretty heavy duty.

I wouldn't consider them waterproof. They are made to replace a bulb in a fixture , not to be exposed to the elements.

Only if the deck is 100% water proof. These lights can not come in contact with water.

This particular LED lights is not intended for outdoor use. There are some water proof LED outdoor lights available in the market.

No problem with saltwater. Just make sure you keep any salt evaporation on the leds to a minimum.

I used them outdoors, no problem. They were however, inside a light fixture.

I'd say water resistant. They tell you in the instructions to not point the lights upward toward the sky. So far, so good with my lights and they have been rained on many times! Installed them this past summer.

I use them in outdoor motion lights and they work fine. The lights are mounted up under the eaves a bit so they don't get direct rain.

They work outside with low voltage, however, in my situation,they are protected from direct contact with water. I suspect they would still work for low voltage lighting, even if they were occasionally wet

No, These Lights are not water proof, and I wouldn't try using them on a boat trailer.

You will need to purchase the waterproof (IP 67) models available on Amazon or HitLights.com for full submergence. These lights will not operate under water.

The power cord connection to the rope light is tight fitting and so is the end cap. I think they will keep water out, but you could smear silicone over them to be completely safe. Only the power plug itself is not waterproof and would need to be protected.

There is no indication on the light that they are waterproof, and here I believe you mean submersible. When I installed them on my utility trailer I did caulk around them to protect them from the weather. The lights have been on the trailer several months now with no problems.

I don't know about that one. I do know they are completely sealed and waterproof. I think the lights themselves would hold up well. I'm not sure about the wires though. I ended up using 3M high grade double stick tape to ensure they won't come off.

I haven't had any problems driving in the rain with them, I have actually submerged them to load a boat on my trailer and they are still working fine. they are also really bright, I'm very happy with them, only problem I had was the plate holder was cheap plastic and broke so I mounted the plate to the fender but the lights are great

There is no indication that these LED lights are either indoor or outdoor. They are low voltage/wattage and therefore should not be suseptible to outdoor temperatures. I am not sure if they are waterproof though, or what would happen if rain got into them. If they are sheltered from the elements I doubt it would be an issue.

No, these lights are sealed and should not allow any water to get inside of the lens.
