Does this work in below freezing weather, considerably below? Is it able to be seen in the sunlight?

Works real well on my yamaha nytro and I regularly ride in subzero temps. Can be seen very well in all light conditions.

I purchased two of these and use them to control outside lighting. The did well down to about 20 degrees, it doesn't get much colder here.

I have been using the light since Mid-April. I have not had any issues with it. The temperature range has been normally 50 - 80 degrees. As far as it working in freezing temperatures, there have been several days of cold weather, but not any extended freezing cold temperatures. I live in Southern New England and I guess I will find out in a few short months.

I have used mine in temperatures as low as 20 below zero (for a string of 5 days) and it functioned flawlessly. The one draw back is the battery life is somewhat reduced by the cold temps. Hope this helps.

Wow, I had one last 3 years. My current one is on its second winter. Are you in a high sunlight or very cold area?

Not a problem unless always in line of sight. But very small and not that bright. Very useful as a alert for freezing and Ice.

I don' t know. We live in Tennessee and have had coldest winter in 20 years getting down to -6 with windchill of -12 and had no problems with the light. We use it to light up our donkey corral at night. It has stayed bright even during our snow and ice storms.

Well, since I live in Florida I cannot answer from my own experience, but the solar light has rechargeable batteries in it, so as with any battery, they don't work very well in sub-zero temps, if at all, unfortunately. Also, as the other person noted, the solar panel cannot recharge the batteries in the Winter in your area. Not enough sunlight hours. It does require a minimum of 4-6 hours direct sunlight on the panel.

Yes it can. It glows under UV light (best spotted in lower light conditions)

Yes, I had it outside for a while. It can also handle cold temperatures though I don't remember the exact temperature range at this time I believe below zero. Check manufacturer specs. If enclosed, keep in mind the infrared light causes reflection glare upon a window and you probably won't get a good image. I think under an eve would work.

I have not tried it but I suspect that in normal sunlight you should have no problem. In low light or at night you may have an issue.

It depends on the batteries you use in this lantern. Alkaline batteries suffer from reduced energy capacity at lower temperature. Your LED lantern will still work at below freezing, just that its brightness and runtime are both reduced.

I only have one that I bought to use as a test for my backyard lighting. Doesn't get below freezing in Houston a lot, but I have had no issues with the light when it does.

Well, I tried it out in my bedroom but had to turn the lights off to see it clearly. And we have to wait until the sun goes down to use it outside. So I would say no.

I have used it in weather that was below freezing and i was fine. I was just sleeping in this sleeping bag out in the open.

I believe it needs visible light, it works under fairly low light conditions (as in like winter light or late day light) but I don't think it would work with heat.

Yes. It seems to work well in all weather but we have not experienced a snow storm so I cannot attest to that.
