Is this light waterproof?

no..my dog ran in and out of the water a couple of times and it is toast...also..the light only stays on for a minute (normally) or two and then shuts off.

As far as I know, the answer is no. I walk my dogs at night and then remove the light and typically we don't walk in the rain.

Like, is it waterproof? Or is it "made in China waterproof"... because, at best, the latter is true...

My dog has been out in the rain with no problems but can't say for sure about bathing because the groomer takes her collar off !

Yes. It is not made to swim but things like drop in water/rain/splash is not going to harm it. It got washed in washer and battery got weak but still ok, next time I will open and dry it immediately lol.

Hi Brad,It sure seems to be - I've left mine out in elements here Califonia through some heavy rain and it's been fine - extremely happy with unit and the recharae feature is the way to go. I've inverted mine for a softer light and highly recommend based on my usage !Tom

Maybe water resistant but not water proof. I wrap mine in saran wrap when anticipating rain. Also have used a sandwich bag and tape the bag around the lamp area so it is not obscured.

There's an o-ring to make a seal for the battery, but I wouldn't say that makes it waterproof. For the depths you go for scuba diving that require a flashlight, I wouldn't go the cheap road and just pony up the money for a light made for scuba diving.

As others have answered, I do not know if it is waterPROOF, not having immersed it; however, I believe it to be somewhat water resistant. The o-ring seal between the head and battery compartment assembly is only tight when the flashlight is turned on (twist head slightly counterclockwise from battery end). It wouldn't make a diving light anyway. None the less, this is a great light, do not let water concerns stop you.

No it is NOT waterproof. Rain will definitely kill the light. Great for stage lighting indoors but do not use outdoors without it being under cover.

I have used it in the rain with no issues but I would not plan to submerge the light.

No. Control box and/or lights are NOT water proof. I've tried sealing them... but the materials used in their manufacturing and shipped are not par, for upgrades.

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.

I do buy a lot of led lights , if it says not water resistant or waterproof if the strip does not have a epoxy finish on it then it's probably not waterproof .

I have been in the rain with the light, it's pretty cool I never submerged it completely though just got caught in rain for about 40 mins

it is waterproof as I am using it. It inserts (sits flush) in the socket intended for it. The rubber seal that surrounds the light is very snug. when I pulled out the old light fixture to replace it with the new one, there was no evidence of water leaks. I am using it on a horse trailer as the brake light.

I've worn it in light shower through my 15 minute walk to work. During that time the battery compartment has kept water out. But I would probably add a little non adhesive silicon seal in the battery seams for extra protection. The lamp part appear well sealed to handle heavier rain.

To a certain degree it is water resistant. The flash light has a rubber seal/ring. The metal should not rust if you shake it dry before putting it away.

Yes it is waterproof and weather proof. However it is certainly not bright. The 28 LED advertised is somewhat misleading. It is like holding a candle in a large forest.

I'm using it inside. It's absolutely bright enough, but I would be worried about it getting wet outside

It appears to be. Installed outside the back door in the yard and so far no problems with the rain. I might have to clear the snow off it in the winter but no snow yet so I'm not sure. Plug is covered and hasn't been an issue either. Very happy with the coverage the light gives.
