Can it be installed outdoors?

yes but you would need to have it in a dry location where the rain wouldn't not get into the system

No. I wouldn't recommend it. Frankly I don't recommend buying it either. Read my review. (Max Grodty)

Yes it can as long as the rain or weather does not get to it. However, I would think you would want a more substantial video camera set up for outside security on a regular basis. It is not a heavy duty item. Also, the battery life is very short so you'd want to plug it into an outlet.

Great question. I would definitely email the company that one. I used mine indoors.

I returned the product. It was extremely poor in terms of operating and programming as well as battery life. I do not recommend.

I am sure if you had it protected from the elements and wind you could... but I would not unless it was the only reason I needed to purchase it....

I suppose you could try to put it on the outside, but my guess is that the weather would take it down for you after a while. I put it on the inside, and it works just great.

I have not personally used it outside, but this is designed for indoor use. I am sure you could set it up outside and then take it back inside, but it is by no means rugged.

No, It is indoor use only. It will work outside, but eventually the moisture will cause it to fail prematurely.

The only problem as I see it is getting secure electrical power to the unit that's mounted outdoors. Then how do you protect the unit from the elements? My answer to your question is probably "NO"! Perhaps this manufacturer makes an outdoor unit to fulfill your need. Good Luck!

I think that is the only place it can be installed - I can't imagine it being installed outdoors and having to withstand the elements.

Yes you can use it outdoors. right now I have it in a fountain out side on my patio and works fine.

I think the manual says it can be used outside. We have only used ours inside.

It is electronic, so I wouldn't put it outdoors. However, please read all of the comments here: it doesn't work!! Don't buy it!

I did install outside. Put it up under an eve to protect it from weather. I would recommend using a dome which you can buy at Amazon for less then 60$.

The manufacturer says no. Mine is on an external pipe but it is essentially sheltered from any rain. Works great, easy to install, but I wouldn't put it anywhere wet.

I don't have mine installed outside . . . I believe it is made out of steel which might eventually rust? It would probably be OK if you put it outside, so long as it was under some kind of covering (roof, etc.) to protect from rain. Also the box is intended to be installed with the slot on top . . so that is also a consideration . . . again probably ok if it is installed under a covering of some sort.

Yes it is designed for outdoor installation. The base has three holes to attach it to a structure.

Sure you can use it outdoors. It has a small battery box on it that would probably be completely ruined, but you are free to put the thing any place you want. Just don't expect it to last long out there if it starts raining...

It's not built to withstand weather. So I doubt it should be outside unless very well protected. It's a good device though and I always received great support.

Yes, I have it mounted outside. It's been there for 1 year and still works.

It would be subject to freezing in cold climates, otherwise I do not see a reason why it can't be installed outdoors. The plastic housing would likely degrade over time in direct sunlight so a shady location would be better.
