It is not waterproof, no "O" rings to seal working parts. Will resist moderate drizzle/rain, or at least mine has so far. Light is really bright for such a small unit. I suggest you invest in Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries. I know they are expensive, but they last a really long time in this unit. I got rid of the head band and used nylon cable ties to secure it to my safety vest.

It does have a rubber o-ring but I think its far from waterproof. the front lens spins to vary the size of the beam....I can see water getting in there..no prob

Yes it is! I use mine in the oilfield and wish I had it when I served on duty. It was a little quirky when I first bought it but soon realized I was using it wrong. I use mine daily/nightly for hours at a time. I suggest Duracell batteries in this thing. I tried rechargeable and found Duracell work longer and are about cheaper than the better rechargeable ones. I love this light! I can't believe I never left a review for this thing before. Please feel Free to ask any questions. I'll help if I can. I bought 4 if these things as back ups but do far still using the first one 4 months later

Water-resistant; yes. Water beads up and rolls off nicely. Waterproof; no. I would not leave water standing on it nor let it get soaked.

its rated as "water resistant". i wouldn't leave it out in the rain over night, but it could withstand brief splashes and or short periods in rain. Not submersible.

I keep mine outside but under cover from direct rain. It has a battery pack that could get wet. Also the plastic could deteriorate over time in direct sun. I would say weather resistant but not weather proof.

Don't believe it is water proof. If used in a watertight enclosure with a Plastic "While in Use" cover you may be able to use it outdoors.

It is water repellant. As far as water proof, I'm not sure about that. I have not had it out in any big rainstorms yet.

Evans,All the connections on the wiring are considered "water resistant" not "water proof" wiring connections will resist rain but for best results you should use silicone dielectric on the actual connection metal contacts. This will prevent any corrosion in case water does enter the connector.It is a good product, good luck

Weather resistant. Ok for outdoor use, but keep it away from wet areas. Mind you, it's not very loud though.

It is not "waterproof" - the manufacturer calls it "water resistant". It does come with a clear plastic (vinyl) rain cover for use outdoors.

This product appears to be no more suitable for use outdoors than any other product not made specifically for such use. There is no provision for maintaining a dry connection for the sockets and it is unlikely that the switch would be water-proof.

Yes; It is weather resistiant, it is like most universal boor bell alarms it is not 100 % water proof. I built a little box made out of PVC board for the back top and bottom and sides overhanging over the top of the remote control. It has been working fine.

I am not sure if the unit is waterproof, I am guessing it has some water resistance built in but I am guessing if it was they would say it on the packaging.

Product is not rated for use outdoor and because its uses electric I would not recommend exposuring it to getting wet.

It may be water resistant, but not WATERPROOF. It is probably Ok with limited exposure.

No it is water resistant. But mine never stopped working and I was out in a thunderstorm for 4 hours wearing it. It's about as close to waterproof that you can get.

No, it is not waterproof or even resistant. The lining is a thin mesh fabric. If you are considering this purchase at all for keeping bugs away, I highly recommend this product. We use ours regularly for BBQ and it keeps away all the pesky bugs that come with living in the south!

Hi Mauricio. Sorry but I don't know if it is water resistance. I bought it for a friend of mine
